Telugu original
The text in Telugu script, as it is traditionally written.
Devotional content and languages
How Irumudi keeps text accurate, and what each language version means.
Three versions, never mixed up
Each devotional item can have up to three versions. They are shown and labelled separately.
English transliteration
The same words written in English letters so you can read them aloud. It is not a translation.
Meaning
An explanation of what the text says, where one has been reviewed.
If a version is missing, the app shows that it is missing. It does not generate a translation or fill the gap with text of unknown origin.
How text is reviewed
- Text moves from draft to review to published. Only published text appears in the app.
- Each item records where it came from and who reviewed it.
- Withdrawn or archived text leaves the app at the next update, and the app does not present unverified text as verified.
- Your favourites and bookmarks stay attached to an item when its text is corrected.
What the library holds
The library grows as reviewed content is approved, and the categories are set by editorial review. It may change over time, and no list on this site should be read as a promise of a complete collection. This website shows only22 Ayyappa texts, in four scripts, on the Saranam texts page. It does not reproduce songs or any other text. Read the rest in the app, where each item shows its source.
Languages
The app can be used in English, తెలుగు, മലയാളം,தமிழ், ಕನ್ನಡ and हिन्दी. You choose when you first open it and can change it later. The wording of the app in Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada and Hindi is still to be reviewed by a native reader, so some phrases may change in later updates. The Saranam texts are written in four scripts (Telugu, English letters, Malayalam and Tamil), and the Puja Vidhanam guide and the Swami names are in all six languages.
