Water is home for crocodile where its power gets multiplied. Similarly land is home for elephant where it can show its might. But now, since crocodile had the upper hand in the tug of war, it pulled the elephant more and more into the water that at one stage, all but the trunk of elephant was under water. At this point in time, the elephant gajEndra reazlied that there is no other one to protect him except SrIman nArAyaNan, who removes the enemies and saves people. gajEndhra let o ut a huge cry of help in nArAyanAvO to ask SrIman nArAyaNan to come and rescue him immediately. Just like how the elephant called out for help, mAmunigaL realizes his helplessness and calls out SrI rAmAnuja who is the sole refuge.) |

| Arththi prabandham – 60 | thAyamuRai thAn | Because one’s parents’ |
| Arththi prabandham – 60 | sompudhalvar thammadhanRO | properties are automatically transferred to the sons. (mAmunigaL says to his heart, Hey! my dear heart. Hence, we do not have to do anything on our part. Everything is readily available by default. Our burden is not a burden anymore for us (implying that emperumAnAr will take care of the burden and that he in fact has taken care of mAmunigaL by granting him his wish). |
| Arththi prabandham – 60 | Concluding Note | periya perumAL bestowed emperumAnAr with both HIS wealth namely nithya vibhUthi (paramapadham) and leelA vibhUthi (all the remaining places that are not paramapadham). Hence, emperumAnAr is celebrated as SrI vishNu lOka maNi maNdapa mArgadhAyi (dhAti panchakam 5). emperumAnAr is the leader of all prapannas. It is such emperumAnAr, that jIyar who is also known as maNavALa mAmunigaL, yathIndra pravaNar, surrendered himself totally. He performed prapaththi to emperumAnAr. He got the ultimate goal of going to paramapadham and doing eternal kainkaryam to bhagavAn (and bhAgavathAs). This would mean, this same result would be bestowed to everyone who has the abhimAnam of emperumAnAr. This effectively means that everyone who has surrendered unto the lotus feet of emperumAnAr would beget his love in the first place upon which they will be transcended to infinite bliss in paramapadham once and for all. |
