The Siruthondar {little volunteer} who sacrificed his son to God.
Paranjodi was the commander of Narasimha Pallava. He is a great devotee of Shiva. People affectionately called him 'Chiruthondar'.
He used to worship Esan Ganapadeeswarar and Ambal Chulikampal in his hometown Tiruchengatangudi.
Later, Paranjodi renounced his post as commander and performed Shivathondu at Tirusengatangudi along with his wife Thiruvengattu Nangai,son Siralan and maid Chandana Nangai.
He made it a habit to serve the Sivanatiyar-Shiva Devotees in his house every day and make it a habit for them to eat after their meal.
In front of Shivanadiyar, he considered himself very small and behaved with reverence. So people affectionately called him 'Chiruthondar'.
One day, none of Sivanadiar came to Siruthondar's house to have the sweet drink and Food . So the Chiruthondar went outside in search of a servant - Shiva Devotees to eat delicious food.
Lord Shiva wanted to make the world know about his [Chiruthondar] devotion {Shiva devotee}.
As a result, the servant standng in front of the house in the guise of a servant.
At that time there were only the wife of chiruthondar and the maid in the house.
The chiruthondar's wife, who was happy to see the servant[Shiva devotee], said, "Servant! My husband has gone outside in search of Sivanadiar. He will come now."
Eshiwaran, who was in the form of a servant, said, "Mother! I am from the north. We will not be in this place where only women are alone. I am sitting under a fig tree in a nearby temple. When the volunteer[Chiruthondar] comes, tell him to come there" and left.
After some time,As none of Shivanatiar was available for eat food,Siruthondar came home confused,
His wife told him that a Shiva devotee had come looking to eat food and where he said he was and asked him to bring him.
He saw the Shiva devotee under the fig tree and prayed to him. Then he said, “You bastard! I have come to Siruthonar.They should come to our house to eat their food."
Eshwaran, who was in the role of a slave, said, “Little volunteer! We eat only once in six months. Today is the day for that. But it is rare for you to create amud for us. Thinking that the servant will not come to eat at our house, the servant said, "Whatever the matter is, tell me. I will do that."
Immediately, the Shiva Devotee said, "One son to one cow, and a child under the age of five who has no defects in his organs. His mother,father, both of them should cook it with all their heart and then serve the child's curry to us."
The Siruthondar bowed to him and said, "If you agree to eat food, we will immediately arrange food according to your wishes."
The Shiva Devotee agreed. Then he said, "You cook.. I'm coming back after taking a bath." After that Siruthondar rushed home. He told his wife what had happened. Both the husband and wife decided to cook and serve their son Siralan to the servant[ Shiva Devotee].
They brought the son who had gone to school and bathed him. Then, for the wife to hold, Siruthondar tore her child to pieces.Then his wife and the maid finished cooking the meal together.By then the Shiva Devotee had arrived. A seat was prepared for him, cooked baby curry was brought and placed on a leaf. He invited the Siruthondar to sit with him and eat. As the Shiva devotee told him, he fed on another leaf and tried to dine with the child.Then the Shiva Devotee stopped him and said, “When I am patient and eat once in six months, you are in such a hurry. Call your son too."
Siruthondar said, "He will help here." The Shiva Devotee insisted, "We will eat only when he comes," and Siruthondar, who had no other choice, went to the door of the house and called, "Son, Sirala, come."
What a miracle.. Like a person coming from school, Siralan came running.Siruthondar and his wife embraced their son in joy and rejoiced.
Then when he brought him into the house, the Shiva Devotee was not there. Realizing that it was Lord Shiva, the couple was overwhelmed with joy. At that time,Eshwaran appeared with Parvati in the Rishabha vehicle and granted salvation to Siruthondar, his wife, son and maid.
