Highlights from vyAkyAnam (Commentary)

kAr Arndha … – krishNan who is having cloud like rejuvenating form, is desirously residing in thiruththEvanAr thogai in thirunAngUr which has very beautiful gardens. On such dhivyadhESam.

kUr Arndha … – Just as he is a leader in using the spear on the opponents, he is a leader in singing poems too. Those who can recite these ten pAsurams, will unite with thiruvadi (garudAzhwAr), thiruvanandhAzhwAn (AdhiSEshan) et al in SrIvaikuNtam which has no end to goodness and will remain there eternally without separation as said in chAndhOgya upanishath “na cha punar AvarthathE” (There is no return).
