Highlights from nampiLLai‘s vyAkyAnam as documented by vadakkuth thiruvIdhip piLLai
- sErvan senRu – They say “though you are speaking in anguish, is this practically possible?” she says “I will certainly reach there”.
- ennudaith thOzhimIrgAL … – Those who exist for me [friends] and those who think I exist for them [mothers] need not say anything. To be unable to console her, there is no difference between friends and mothers. Can ignorant persons instruct wise person and save them? Can those who consider my love towards him which is due to his nature, to be a means, advice me? She is forgetting herself and speaking with her focus on him; they are forgetting him, and focussing on themselves, trying to withdraw her.
- nIrgaL uraikkinRadhen idhaRku – Can those who are confused [friends and mothers], console the one who is clear [parAnguSa nAyaki, who is clear on her goal]? What is your state? And what is my state? How can you who consider my leaving as a fault/blame, advice me who is determined to go to him?
- idhaRku – For my state.
They say “Still, is this how one who has a heart and obedience will speak? Should you not listen to advice and follow us?” She says,
- nenjum niRaivum enakku ingu illai – If you want to say that, you go there and say that. My heart and obedience have reached him. niRaivu – obedience. nenju – the container of that.
- kAr vaNNan … – Is his form such that my heart and obedience will be under my disposal?
- kAr vaNNan – One who has a beautiful form which makes me disregard the words of mothers and friends.
When asked “Does he only have physical beauty?” She says,
- kArk kadal gyAlam uNda – The saviour for the suffering ones.
When asked “would he just protect during dire situations and leave subsequently?” She says,
- kaNNA pirAn – The benefactor who places himself at the disposal of others.
- vandhu vIRRirundha – Being present there manifesting all his opulence.
- Er … – I will reach the great city of thenthiruppEreyil which is having abundance of ploughs [implying fertile lands], beautiful fields and water bodies. I will neither withdraw myself seeing the hurdles you place nor will I remain on the way [looking at the beauty]. Don’t console me.
