<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n Does not AzhwAr<\/a>, who said this (please refer to the previous pAsuram), know that it is emperumAn<\/a>\u2019s quality to do at the bidding of his devotees more than aiSvaryam! AzhwAr says that emperumAn will always protect his worlds and that he is very simple in his (AzhwAr\u2019s) matter.<\/p>\n Let us look at the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n Oruruvan allai oLi uruvam nin uruvam<\/em> Or uruvan allai \u2013 (Oh emperumAn!) you are not the one with unique divine form (the form with which you are subservient to your followers) Or uruvan allai<\/strong> \u2013 you are the one with the form which is independent. While kata upanishath 13 says \u201cnithyO nithyAnAm <\/em>\u201d (supreme being has the quality of being permanent and being\u00a0 of the same manner) and chAndhOgya upanishath 6-2-1 says \u201cEkamEva adhvithIyam<\/em>\u201d (there is only one; there is no second), your form is not the one which is different from everyone\/everything else and which controls everyone\/everything else.<\/p>\n oLi uruvan nin uruvam<\/strong> \u2013 it is existing only for the sake of your followers, which is your quality. Just as it is mentioned in jithanthE SlOkam 1-5 \u201cna thE rUpam nachAkArO nAyudhAni na chAspadham, thathApi purushAkArO bhakthAnAm thvam prakASasE<\/em>\u201d (there is no quality, form, weapon or dwelling place exclusively for you; however, you are having all these qualities only for the sake of your followers) this is your true quality [of existing for your followers]. Your quality is not of the type mentioned in thiruvAimozhi 1-1-1<\/a> \u201cuyarvaRa uyarnalam udaiyavan<\/em>\u201d (one who has auspicious qualities superior to those of everyone else). Rather, it is as mentioned in thiruvAimozhi 1-3-2<\/a> \u201ceLivarum iyalvinan<\/em>\u201d (having simplicity as his nature).<\/p>\n You, who are like this ….<\/p>\n Ir iruvan enbar irunilaththOr<\/strong> \u2013 those who think you have qualities beyond one\u2019s capabilities to measure, are the ignorant ones. They would think that emperumAn<\/a>, the great supreme being, has only supreme qualities. An alternative meaning for Or uruvan allai<\/em> is that he does not have the same type of form always. In other words, as mentioned in SrI bhagavath gIthA 4-5<\/a> \u201cbahUni mE vyathIthAni janmAni<\/em>\u201d (many births have passed for me) and in thiruvAimozhi 2-9-5<\/a> \u201cpiRappil palpiRavip perumAL<\/em>\u201d (emperumAn who has had many births of his own volition, unlike we chEthanas<\/a> who were born due to our deeds), he has had many incarnations and divine names. oLi uruvam nin uruvam<\/em> \u2013 even when you were born like that [with many incarnations], your divine form was more and more of Sudhdha sathvam<\/em> type (pure good state) and with unlimited radiance. Just as it is mentioned in yajur ashtakam 3-6 3-9 \u201csa u SrEyAn bhavathi jAyamAna:<\/em>\u201d (he becomes great just by being born), he has the quality as mentioned in these pramANams. Ir uruvan enbar iru nilaththOr<\/em> \u2013 We can construe this as saying that the people of the world say that emperumAn has one divine form as his basic form and another which he takes on whenever he incarnates.<\/p>\n Or uruvam<\/strong> \u2013 the divine form which is radiant, since he incarnates for the sake of his followers.<\/p>\n AdhiyAm vaNNam aRindhAr avar kaNdIr<\/strong> \u2013 those who know that it [as mentioned in the previous verse] is the one which is the cause for all the worlds. In other worlds<\/p>\n AdhiyAm vaNNam aRindhAr<\/strong> \u2013 the vaishNavas who know that others\u2019 existence is only because of him (emperumAn<\/a>) who is like this.<\/p>\n Adhi<\/strong> \u2013 one who is responsible for the salvation of his followers<\/p>\n nIdhiyAl maN kAppAr ninRu<\/strong> \u2013 they are the ones who stand firmly and protect the world, as mentioned in perumAL thirumozhi 3-3 \u201cthIdhil nanneRi kAtti engum thirindhu<\/em>\u201d (going to all the places, showing the correct path without any defect) and in iraNdAm thiruvandhAdhi 14<\/a> \u201cthIrththakararAmin thirindhu<\/em>\u201d (going to various places and purifying them). If emperumAn<\/a> is termed as svathanthran<\/em> (independent) the world will go astray and only if he is termed as parathanthran<\/em> (dependent on his followers) will it remain in the correct way. Hence, AzhwAr<\/a> is correcting those people who say that he is difficult to attain. Earlier he gave up because of agyAnam <\/em>(ignorance); now he is trying to give up due to gyAnam<\/em> (knowledge)<\/p>\n We shall take up the 61st<\/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 Does not AzhwAr, who said this (please refer to the previous pAsuram), know that it is emperumAn\u2019s quality to do at the bidding of his devotees more than aiSvaryam!
