Abstract

Chitramuthu Adigal is one of the Siddhas who lived in the 20th century and he is known as 'Cittu Viḷaiyāṭāc Cittar’. He lived for 95 years and has published a book titled 'Aruloli' based on his experiences in the form of poetry. Although there are 18 works in this book, the main objective of this study is to reveal the impermanence found in the works of 'Kurumatimālai'. This study is based on library research. In this way, the messages mentioned by Chitramuthu Adigalar under the subtopics of impermanence of emotions, impermanence of wealth, impermanence of life and impermanence of body are analyzed here. In today's modern era, human lives in his life with a passion for many things, thinking that is permanent. But he did not realize the truth that they are all impermanent. Realizing this quality of human being, Chitramuthu Adigal has prioritized the concepts of impermanence in his poems. In this way, this research is intended to create awareness among the people by emphasizing the truths about impermanence mentioned by Chitramuthu Adigalar in Kurumatimālai.
