\nperiyavAchchAn piLLai<\/a>‘s introduction:<\/strong>
\nmadhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a> glorifies kaNNan emperumAn since\u00a0emperumAn<\/a> is most dear to nammAzhwAr<\/a> who is his AchArya. Though\u00a0madhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a> is fully focussed on nammAzhwAr<\/a>, since nammAzhwAr<\/a> likes perumAL,\u00a0madhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a> sings about perumAL in this pAsuram.<\/p>\n
\nmadhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a> reveals the sweet nature of nammAzhwAr<\/a> in this pAsuram.
\nparathvam (bhagavAn<\/a>‘s supremacy which is seen in srIvaikuNtam) is compared to milk ocean, and vibhava avathArams are compared to amrutha kalasam (the nectar pot) that is found in milk ocean (which is very sweet). Even amongst the various avathArams, krishNa avathAram is the sweetest. Even amongst the various leelais in krishNavathAram, his butter-theft action is the sweetest.<\/p>\n
\nKnowing well that this “butter stealing” incident is very dear to nammAzhwAr<\/a>,\u00a0madhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a> also becomes immersed in that anubhavam.<\/p>\n

\n kattuNNap paNNiya perumAyan ennapanil<\/em>
\n naNNith thenkurukUr nambi enRakkAl<\/em>
\n aNNikkum amuthURum ennAvukkE<\/em><\/p>\n
\nkaNNi – rough surfaced (which will hurt the body when tied around)
\nnuN – sUkshma (thin – that will blend into the body)
\nchiRu – small (that is not sufficient in length)
\nthAmbinAl – with the string\/rope
\nkattuNNap paNNiya – one who facilitated mother yasOdhA to tie him
\nperu mAyan – one who has wonderful abilities
\nen appanil – leaving behind my master who is the sarvEsvaran (supreme lord)
\nnaNNi – approached (AzhwAr) and taking shelter of him
\nthen kurukUr nambi enRakkAl – while reciting the name of nammAzhwAr<\/a> who is the leader of kurukUr (AzhwArthirunagari)<\/a> which is in the south side (of bhAratha dhEsam)
\naNNikkum – it is very sweet
\nen nAvukkE – only for my tongue
\namuthURum – it will be nectarean<\/p>\n
\nLeaving behind krishNa who is my master and the supreme lord who has wonderful abilities and who facilitated mother yasOdhA to tie him down with rough surfaced, thin and small string, when I recite the name of nammAzhwAr<\/a> who is the leader of kurukUr (AzhwArthirunagari)<\/a> which is in the south side (of bhAratha dhEsam), it is very sweet and will be nectarean only for my tongue.<\/p>\n\n
\n
\nIt is this great deed of him that makes\u00a0madhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a> say “perumAyan<\/em>” (great person with unimaginable abilities).<\/li>\n\n
\n
\nAs said in “nAyamAthmA<\/em>” sruthi, even when one has bhakthi (devotion), unless\u00a0bhagavAn<\/a> himself allows, he cannot be pursued. He says only those who know the deep meanings of thirumanthram and dhvayam can tie down emperumAn<\/a> (since they will know their total dependency\/surrender towards emperumAn<\/a>). bhagavAn<\/a>‘s glories vanquished madurakavi AzhwAr’s attachment towards material desires. nammAzhwAr<\/a>‘s glories vanquished madhurakavi AzhwAr<\/a>‘s attachment towards bhagavAn<\/a>.<\/li>\n
