Akkārakkani Nacchumanār was a poet belonging to the late Sangam period (between 1st century BCE and 2nd century CE). The term Akkārakkani denotes the Hindu god Vishnu. Thus, he is believed to have been a follower of Vaishnavism.[1]
The moon full of Kalei (the whole of her face being illuminated) pleases the external eyes, in like manner as the Cural full of Kalei (knowledge) pleases the intellectual eyes; but nevertheless she cannot be compared to Valluvar's production, for she is neither spotless, nor does she retain her form and splendour unchanged like it.
