Melpathur's transformation

Then, somewhere in beginning of day, just he could close the eyes, then Lord Krishna's soft voice heard,"why what happened Bhattathiri, can't sleep or what?  He started crying after he heard the voice, and started search for Lord,. and in desperate voice, he pleaded " Please help me Lord, i cannot move, and sleep due the pain, help me to continue compose the Narayaneeyam".  Lord replied, " How can I help you, since you have hurt my best devotee Poonthanam, I am helpless.   He is also not slept due to mental agony, for which you must go and apologize. Then, may be you can come out of your trauma."



The Bhattathiri regret for what happend, and with great difficult got up from his bed. Hurriedly done morning rituals, ran to the temple where Poonthanam sat. He asked for Poonthanam's apology for what he had done the previous day and helped him to compose the "Jnanapana".  Jnanapana went on to become more popular later on.

Then Bhattathiri recovered from the pain.
