Vinayagar Agaval is a hymn in praise of the Lord Ganesha, by the great Chola era Tamil Poetess Avaiyar. It is thought to be her greatest poem, written shortly before her death.
"Agaval" is a form of blank verse, close to speech. Auviyar's poem is a journey through the Tamil devotional traditional known as Bakti, in this instance as part of the shaivite philsophy.
