<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> mentions about the first time that he received the grace from emperumAn<\/a> which was the cause for his benefits such as these.<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n aruL purindha sindhai adiyAr mEl vaiththu<\/em> aruL purindha sindhai \u2013 the divine mind focussed on mercy arul purindha sindhai<\/strong> \u2013 as mentioned in SrI bhagavath gIthA 16-19 \u201cthAnaham dhvishatha: krUrAn samsArEshu narAdhamAn kshipAmi ajasram aSubAn AsurIshvEva yOnishu<\/em>\u201d (I push those who hate me, those who are cruel, those who are the lowliest among humans and those who have inauspicious qualities, always into samsAram (materialistic realm) and that too in the clan of demons), instead of pushing me into such a clan, he showers his grace on me through his divine mind as said in SrI bhagavath gIthA 10-10<\/a> \u201cdhadhAmi bhudhdhiyOgam tham yEna mAmupayANthi thE<\/em>\u201d (I give them intelligence with which they can reach me).<\/p>\n aruL purindha sindhai<\/strong> \u2013 he has such a divine mind that he cannot sustain himself without showering grace. This implies that the faults present in the chEthanas<\/a> are hidden from him by his grace.<\/p>\n adiyAr mEl vaiththu<\/strong> \u2013 he showers such grace on his followers like us. Showering his grace without looking at anything other than the criterion that we are his followers.\u00a0 Here, the term adiyAr<\/em> (followers) can be construed to refer to followers in general or to the AzhwAr<\/a> who was standing in the corridor [of mrigaNdu maharishi in thirukkOvalUr] along with the other two AzhwArs when emperumAn<\/a> started crowding around them with his consort [he could be referring to the first three AzhwArs as adiyAr<\/em>].<\/p>\n adiyAr mEl vaiththu<\/strong> \u2013 emperumAn cannot exist without showering his grace on his followers. Hence, he showers the grace so that he does not lose himself; AzhwAr<\/a> terms this as causeless mercy.<\/p>\n poruL therindhu kANguRRa appOdhu<\/strong> \u2013 at that point of time when he showered his grace on us, so that we would know things as they are. Alternatively, this can be construed as: that point of time when emperumAn<\/a> considered them too as entities and showered his grace. nammAzhwAr<\/a> too has mercifully stated in thiruvAimozhi 5-7-3<\/a> \u201cporuL allAdha ennaip poruLAkki adimai koNdAy<\/em>\u201d (you recognised me as a sentient entity when I was lying as an insentient being and made me a servitor).<\/p>\n Since he became qualified to receive his grace …..<\/p>\n iruL thirindhu nOkkinEn<\/strong> \u2013 I found that I lost my ignorance which was a hurdle for me to get knowledge. Once I saw this ….<\/p>\n nOkki<\/strong> \u2013 I received the true knowledge that emperumAn<\/a> is the Lord and I am a servitor.\u00a0 Hence …<\/p>\n ninaindhEn adhoN kamalam<\/strong> \u2013 I thought of your divine feet which are like lotus flower. I realised that I have to attain only your divine feet. I ascertained that this is my goal.<\/p>\n Orndhu<\/strong> \u2013 analysing that I, who am subservient to emperumAn, have no connection with myself and that I am the possession of emperumAn. Feeling sad that he had mistaken emperumAn\u2019s possession (the soul) as his own.<\/p>\n ennaiyum angu OkkinEn<\/strong> \u2013 I submitted myself to his divine feet. I ascertained that he is the means [to attain him].<\/p>\n We shall take up the 60th<\/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 mentions about the first time that he received the grace from emperumAn which was the cause for his benefits such as these.
