AzhwAr<\/a> previously explained that both the earthly wealth and experience in heaven are temporary; when asked “unlike these, isn’t self-enjoyment a permanent goal?”, AzhwAr replies “While it is better in comparison to worldly pleasures [in the sense that kaivalyam is permanent while the worldly pleasures are temporary], since it is inferior when compared to the bliss of bhagavAn<\/a>, kaivalyam is also very lowly; this being the case, try to hold on to bhagavAn”.<\/p>\n kuRuga miga uNarvaththodu nOkki ellAm vitta<\/em>![\"selvapillai-5\"](\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/selvapillai-5.jpg\")
