This great book was written and published in 1991 by the author with
devotion so that the devotees going to the annual pilgrimage to Sabari
mala can sing the story and fame our Lord on their way to the
sannidhanam. He has dedicated the book to Thakkad Sastha. The first six
verses though written in Malayalam are full of tough Sanskrit words And
the rest of the sthothra in mellifluous Malayalam. The transliteration
given in English is given, with a full realization that English script
is very inadequate to picturise the difficult Malayalam script.
