There is none to support other than the one with sharp arrows). In the same way, this AzhwAr [poygai AzhwAr]<\/a> also talks about the sharpness of the hunters\u2019 arrows. The way the hunters of thirumalai are holding the bow is similar to the way SrI rAma and lakshmaNa are holding! The hunters who are holding the bow and sharp arrows in one hand are holding torches [burning firewood] in the other, in order to remove the darkness, while going to their fields for protecting them.<\/p>\n veruvip punam thuRandha vEzham<\/strong> \u2013 elephants which foray into the fields for food, on looking at the torches and the bow \/ sharp arrows that the hunters are holding, will become fearful and will run away, thinking that they should never ever come to these fields.<\/p>\n iru visumbil mIn vIzhak kaNdu anjum vEnkatamE <\/strong>\u2013 even as the elephants are running away from the fields fearing the torches, they see shooting starts falling from the expansive sky towards the earth. Thinking that these are the torches being thrown at them by the hunters, they stand transfixed, unable to go further. It appears to them that it was better in the fields as the torches would have been brought by the hunters for some other purpose whereas here, the shooting stars [which they think are torches] are being aimed at them by the hunters and they become more fearful.<\/p>\n mEl asurar kOn vIzhak kaNdu ugandhAn kunRu<\/strong> \u2013 AzhwAr<\/a>, on seeing the fear that the elephants have is reminded of the fear that hiraNyan had on seeing narasimha. thirumalai is the place that emperumAn<\/a> came to, after destroying hiraNyan and feeling happy that he was able to destroy the enemy of his child devotee prahlAdha. He stands in thirumalai in order to eliminate enemies of his followers in future too.<\/p>\n Let us consider the 41st<\/sup> pAsuram next.<\/p>\n adiyEn krishNa ramanuja dhAsan<\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 https:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Full Series << Previous avathArikai AzhwAr says that the purpose of dwelling permanently at thirumalai, as thought by emperumAn, is to destroy the enemies of followers and be joyful.
