<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> says in this pAsuram that emperumAn<\/a> not only does good to these people [brahmA et al] by being in the forefront, but when they leave him of their own accord and indulge in deeds which are harmful to them, he removes their faults and protects them. In the earlier pAsuram brahmA\u2019s ignorance was mentioned. In this pAsuram, Siva\u2019s ignorance is highlighted.<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n paN purindha nAnmaRaiyOn sennip paliyERRa<\/em> paN purindha nAn maRaiyOn \u2013 brahmA, who was taught the four vEdhas, along with their [musical] tunes paN purindha nAn maRaiyOn sennip pali yERRa<\/strong> – Siva had severed one of the heads of brahmA, who had learnt the vEdhas with all the intonations. He severed the head of the one who was not only his father, but father of all the people in the world. Siva himself says in mAthsya purANam 1-8-2 \u201cvAmAngushta nakAgrENa chinnam thasya SirO mayA<\/em>\u201d (that brahmA\u2019s head was severed by the edge of the nail on my left hand). brahmA who was angered by this cursed him saying \u201ckapAlee thvam bhavishyasi<\/em>\u201d (you will be with the skull) due to which the skull got stuck well with Siva\u2019s hand. Since brahmA had cursed him saying that he has to beg till the skull becomes full, Siva went on begging for a very long period with that skull to rid himself of the curse.<\/p>\n veN puri nUl mArban vinai thIra<\/strong> \u2013 In order to atone for his bad deed, Siva wore a white coloured sacred thread and stood in front of emperumAn<\/a> with the skull. Just as those who go about life as they like, indulging in sinful deeds, start taking dip in holy rivers and oceans once the effects of the sins become severe and trouble them, Siva also came in front of emperumAn with lot of humility. It is not only Siva who had severed his father\u2019s head. pArvathi, his consort, was also responsible for the death of her father dhaksha. Siva\u2019s follower saNdESvaran had also severed the foot of his father (all these persons are disrespectful of their fathers). It is opined here that since the word \u201cvinai thIra<\/em>\u201d has been used it is clear that Siva is subordinated to the results of bad deeds and he is incapable of removing the effects of his sins. Thus there is no doubt that he is not ISvaran (supreme lord).<\/p>\n puN purindha AgaththAn<\/strong> – After seeing Siva, who thinks highly of himself, going around with the skull begging for alms, emperumAn<\/a>\u2019s divine mind was hurt. Alternatively we can consider the meaning of puN purindha AgaththAn as \u201calangal mArvil vAsanIr koduththavan<\/em>\u201d spoken mercifully by thirumazhisai AzhwAr<\/a> in thiruchchandha viruththam 113, which means that emperumAn made an incision on his chest and took out fragrant blood to fill the skull in Siva\u2019s hand. brahmA suffered by having his head severed. Siva severed a head and became a sinner. emperumAn removed the pain of both.<\/p>\n Those who attain such emperumAn<\/a>\u2019s divine feet ……<\/p>\n amarar tham bhOgaththAl bhUmi ALwAr<\/strong> \u2013 instead of suffering like Siva et al, they will experience the joy of nithyasUris (permanent dwellers of SrIvaikuNtam) in paramapadham and also experience the happiness on this earth. Hasn\u2019t nammAzhwAr<\/a> mentioned in thiruviruththam 79 \u201cviNNuLArilum sIriyar<\/em>\u201d (those who worship emperumAn on this earth are superior to nithyasUris in paramapadham)! Or, as mentioned by nammAzhwAr in thiruvAimozhi 4-3-11<\/a> \u201cvaiyam manni vIRRirundhu viNNumALvar maNNUdE<\/em>\u201d (they will rule the earth and also be happy in SrIvaikuNtam).<\/p>\n Let us take up the 47th<\/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 in this pAsuram that emperumAn not only does good to these people [brahmA et al] by being in the forefront, but when they leave him of their own accord and indulge in deeds which are harmful to them, … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-iyarpa","category-mudhal-thiruvandhadhi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16870"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16870\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/rudhra-kapala-moksham-purushoththama.jpg\")
