Introduction (given by maNavALa mAmunigaL)

amudhanAr is thinking about emperumAnAr’s help, he loses himself to that, and is falling at his divine feet.

Introduction (given by piLLailOkam jIyar)

As said in the previous pAsuram, emperumAnAr who possess all the auspicious qualities had given himself fully to amudhanAr; thinking about this help, being grateful for that, he says that the other six philosophies of wrong conclusions that are having bad arguments, and they being philosophies just in their name/words – were destroyed by him, he who is knowledgeable in nammAzhvAr’s thamizh vEdham, who is having his fame spread in all the directions, that is emperumAnAr, who entered in to my mind and established strongly like a well set plant, I surrender to such emperumAnAr.

losing to this help of

vyAkyAnam

kURum samayangaL ARum kulaiya – Thinking that the body itself is AthmA ((uLukyam) chAruvAkam), size/form of body itself as AthmA, momentary knowledge is AthmA ((sAkyam) baudhdham), there is only knowledge (yOgAchAran’s baudhdham), nothingness is the only thing (mAdhyamikan’s baudhdham), (adhvaitham ->) brahmam is of no qualities, not having any form,  it is the only existing (no AthmAs),  is without any place, does not have any consorts (thAyAr), all the qualities of the form are all imaginary, everything other than brahmam are false, (pAsupadham/Saivam ->) rudhran is the supreme one – in these ways of philosophies whose arguments are not based on pramANams, but were shouting out whatever came to each one’s imagination in many ways – such outside philosophies to be destroyed;

kuvalayaththE – As said in ‘kalaukalau bhavishyandhi nArAyaNa parAyaNA: | kvachith kvachith mahA bhAgA: dhrAmidEshu cha bhUricha: || thAmraparNI nadhee yathra  kruthamAlA payasvinee – kAvEri cha mahA bhAgA: pratheecheecha mahAnadhee  [SrImath bhAgavatham]’ (~ many knowledgeable ones will be born here and there near the banks of rivers thAmrapaNi, kAvEri, vaigai) and, ‘jAyathE’ (usually this term is used for emperumAn; here it is used for nithyasUris with whose characteristics AzhvArs incarnated), to be celebrated in these ways, the world which is the place of incarnation of AzhvArs who got non-blemished knowledge; in kali yugam;

mARan paNiththa – thiruvAimozhi having ‘uyarvaRa uyar nalam udaiyavan yavan, ayaRvaRum amarargaL athipathi [thiruvAimozhi – 1.1.1]’, and, ‘uLan sudar migu surudhiyuL [thiruvAimozhi – 1.1.7]’, and, ‘nAnmugan thannodu dhEvar ulagOdu uyir padaiththAn [thiruvAimozhi – 4.10.1]’ (He created brahmA, dhEvas, worlds, etc.,), and, ‘nAdi neer vaNangum dheyvamum ummaiyum mun padaiththAn [thiruvAimozhi – 4.10.2]’ (~He created the demo gods that you pray to, and you as well), and, ‘agala killEn iRaiyum enRu alar mEl mangai uRai mArbA [thiruvAimozhi – 6.10.10]’ (~ Oh one having the chest in which thAyAr is always present, saying that she would never leave from there), and ‘avAvil anthAdhi ippaththu aRindhAr piRandhAr uyarndhE [thiruvAimozhi – 10.10.11]’ (~ those who have understood this decad of thiruvAimozhi of a thousand pAsurams, are of greatness even while born in this material world),

as said by nammAzhvAr who is referred to in ‘mikka iRai nilaiyum, meyyAm uyir nilaiyum, thakka neRiyum, thadaiyAgith thokkiyalum, Uzh vinaiyum, vAzh vinaiyum, Odhum kurugaiyar kOn, yAzhin isai vEdhaththiyal [thiruvAimozhi thaniyan]’,

such thiruvAimozhi that explain clearly about artha panchakam (five aspects related to attaining the goal).

maRai uNarndhOnai – having clear understanding of such thiruvAimozhi and its full meanings; he having complete knowledge;

thisai anaiththum ERum guNanai – As said in ‘thikkuRRa keerththi irAmAnusanai [rAmAnusa nURRanthAdhi – 26]’, etc., and ‘pAshaNda dhrumashaNda dhAva dhahana: ‘ (won the other philosophies), etc.,  and ‘ghAthA thAthA ghAthA nAm’, (how much ever we talk about emperumAnAr, we can only keep talking about it (never ending)),etc., having the greatness that is pervading in all the directions;

madhiyiliyEn thERumpadi en manam pukundhAnai – I who was not having the knowledge to understand the true inner meanings based on seeing the ways of pramANams, was having cold heart, and without any discerning mind;

in such mind of mine he entered and made me understand the aforementioned greatness of him; such established lord of mine,

irAmAnusanai – that is, emperumAnAr,

iRainjinamE – we bow to him losing to such help of him. amudhanAr is attracted to his qualities and bowing to his divine feet, you see!

From AzhwAr thirunagari SrI U.Ve. vidhwAn thirumalai nallAn chakravarththi rAmakrishNa iyengAr’s ‘amudha virundhu’:

The six philosophies are: bhaudhdham, chArvAkam, naiyAyikam, jainam, sAnkyam, and yOgam.

kulaiya uNarndhOnai – emperumAnAr understood the full meanings of thiruvAimozhi such that the six philosophies are destroyed.

kuvalayaththE  kURum samayangaL – the philosophies which are not qualified to be present in this world of true knowledge.

kuvalayaththE paNiththa – in this world that gives darkness (absence of true knowledge), emperumAnAr divined such that true greatness is shown.

kuvalayaththE uNarndhOnai – shows the rarity that emperumAnAr is the only one who understood thiruvAimozhi fully in this world.

en manam – Since it is the mind entered by emperumAnAr, amudhanAr is saying ‘en manam’ to note his relationship with such mind. amudhanAr

amudhanAr’s destiny is emperumAnAr’s divine feet; it seems emperumAnAr’s destiny is amudhanAr’s mind!
