It was bhagavadh SrI rAmAnujar’s affectionate disciple thirukkurugaippirAn piLLan who mercifully divined this thaniyan. In this, piLLan is saying that he is worshipping at the desirous, divine feet of bhUdhaththAzhwAr, who mercifully gave this prabandham for removing the difficulties of this world [the repeated births that those who live in this world have to undergo], and who was born in the divine abode thirukkadalmallai.
