mAmudhu nIr thAn vizhunga – just as it has been mentioned in thaiththirIya upanishath “adhbhya prithvI” (earth formed from water), water, which created earth, swallowed it. Just as a person who is posted to guard something steals it, ocean, which was the entity to protect earth, set out to swallow it.
pinnum – there is no end to protection.It will keep continuing.
Or Enam – Incomparable wild boar. If one were to look at the beauty of the divine body which he had created to destroy his greatness, it would make that person [who sees that divine body] to carry out something to ward off evil eyes.
Enam – form of wild boar which lives on both marshy land and in water.
konnavilum kUrnudhi mEl – the tusks of the boar were so sharp that one can escape if one were favourable to emperumAn. However if one were inimical to him, the tusks will destroy the person by killing him.

kUththanai – it is implied that if one were to see this event, it wouldn’t matter if deluge comes everyday.
