Bestowing the goal, means he himself becoming upAyam (means). When <em>vazhi<\/em> is explained as prApyam (goal), here it talks about natural servitude towards bhagavAn.<\/li>\n<li><em>nangaL vAnavar Isanai niRka<\/em> &#8211; The [joyful] result which is explained as in periyAzhwAr thirumozhi 4.5.2 &#8220;<em>puNaikkodukkilum pOga vottAr<\/em>&#8221; (nithyasUris will not let those liberated souls to return to material realm, even if some one from material realm guarantees that we will return those liberated souls to paramapadham in a few days). Two explanations\u00a0 for niRka &#8211; giving up, standing. 1) giving up emperumAn who would give to those who sing his praises, think &#8220;would this be sufficient for what he has done to me?&#8221; and give more. 2) emperumAn patiently waiting for the <a href=\"https:\/\/granthams.koyil.org\/2013\/03\/06\/thathva-thrayam-chith-who-am-i\/\">AthmA<\/a> to sing his praises thinking &#8220;he is capable of glorifying me&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li><em>pOy<\/em> &#8211; Seeking out to glorify something else beyond bhagavAn. When the one who is being praised hears that some one is coming to praise him, he runs away. The one who praises is also determined to get some prize from the one who is being praised; so, the one who praises too chases that person (who is to be praised) to fulfil his requirement; so, every one is going. In bhagavath vishayam (matters related to <a href=\"https:\/\/granthams.koyil.org\/2013\/03\/06\/thathva-thrayam-chith-who-am-i\/\">bhagavAn<\/a>), as said in SrI rAmAyaNam yudhdha kANdam 17.1 &#8220;<em>AjagAma<\/em>&#8221; (he came), when one takes a step towards bhagavAn, it will be said as coming to one&#8217;s own residence from others&#8217; residence; but in the case of others, even if one is in close proximity [from one&#8217;s own place], it will feel like an unnatural residence [which is why the word &#8220;<em>pOy<\/em>&#8221; (going) is used instead of &#8220;coming&#8221;].<\/li>\n<li><em>kazhiya<\/em> &#8230; &#8211; Since the one who praises adds non-existing glories about the one who is praised, it will be beyond comprehension; the person being praised will be confused thinking &#8220;Who is he really talking about? Is that really me?&#8221;; thus, the praises will not stay with the one who is praised. When a poem speaks about the glories which do not exist in a person, such poem points to the person [bhagavAn] who really has [all] such glories.<\/li>\n<li><em>miga nalla<\/em> &#8211; very good. vAn kavi &#8211; intense poem.
