Highlights from nampiLLai‘s vyAkyAnam as documented by vadakkuth thiruvIdhip piLLai
- konRuyir … – Disease which can shed one’s body and snatch the vital airs. Alternative explanation – disease which can separate the vital airs from the body and finish the body. In this second explanation – uyir means body. Enmity and hunger which can also do the same.
When asked “Why is each one of them individually highlighted?”, AzhwAr says “to have those lowly aspects”,
- ninRu ivvulagil kadivAn – destroyed without leaving behind anything.
- nEmip pirAn thamar pOndhAr – Those who were captivated by the beautiful combination of his hand and the chakra, arrived.
- nanRu … – Singing distinguished songs, dancing by jumping up and down, and spreading out everywhere in this manner.
- senRu thozhudhu uymmin – You go towards them, worship/serve them and be saved; also explained as – you worship/serve sarvESvaran along with them and be saved.
- thoNdIr – You who are serving unsuitable matters. You who are qualified to be reformed.
While doing that,
- sindhaiyaich chenniRuththiyE – Worship in such a manner that you don’t say as in “dhEhi mE dhadhAmi thE” (I give you something and you give me something back) [i.e., worship purely, without expecting anything in return].
