<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> prays to emperumAn<\/a> \u201cyou are the one who carries out beneficial activities even for those who are proud that they are ISvaras. You should help me, who cannot do anything without you and who am considering you as everything, to enjoy reciting your divine names.\u201d<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n kadhaiyin perum poruLum kaNNA nin pErE<\/em> kaNNA \u2013 Oh krishNa! kadhaiyin perum poruLum kaNNA nin peyarE<\/strong> \u2013 if one were to delve deep into ithihAsa<\/em> (epics) and purANas<\/em> (ancient literature dealing with biographies), what they reveal are your divine names which deal with your auspicious qualities and your divine activities.<\/p>\n idhayam irundhu avaiyE Eththil<\/strong> \u2013 even if the meaning is not taken in its entirety and only the inner meaning is considered and emperumAn<\/a> is praised (it will be the same). If one were to consider the heart of ithihAsas<\/em> and purANas <\/em>[in other words, the central theme of these sacred texts], it is your divine names which have been mentioned in them with finality. AzhwAr<\/a> has used the verses kadhaiyin perum poruL<\/em> in the same context as he had used earlier in the verses Oththin poruL mudivum iththanaiyE uththaman pEr Eththum<\/em> in the 39th<\/sup> pAsuram<\/a>.<\/p>\n kadhaiyin thirumozhiyAy ninRa thirumAlE<\/strong> \u2013 the knowledge mentioned in upanishaths also mentions words which identify you. Any word with meaning would reveal emperumAn<\/a> and pirAtti. pirAtti is word and emperumAn is the meaning. Hasn\u2019t vishNu purANam 1-8-18 said \u201carthO vishNu: iyam vANI<\/em> (vishNu is the meaning and she (pirAtti) is the word)!<\/p>\n unnai<\/strong> \u2013 you, thirumAL, who have been established in ithihAsas<\/em> and purANas<\/em><\/p>\n unnaip parumozhiyAl kANap paNi<\/strong> \u2013 instead of seeing you with the help of these words, you should shower mercy on me so that I could say as mentioned in thaiththirIya upanishath \u201cahamannam ahamannam ahamannam<\/em>\u201d (\u201cI am food\u201d repeated several times) in a loud voice and see you. You should grace me such that I would feel elated seeing you, praising you with words which do not have any fault, and enjoying you. Only when I am able to see you, could I praise you with words which are without faults. AzhwAr<\/a> says that emperumAn<\/a> should grace him such that he is given divine eyes with which he would be able to see emperumAn clearly. In the words kadhaiyin thirumozhiyAy ninRa<\/em>, the term kadhai<\/em>\u00a0 could be construed to mean incidents taken from ithihAsas <\/em>and purANas<\/em> instead of incidents taken from upanishath.<\/p>\n We shall take up the 65th<\/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 prays to emperumAn \u201cyou are the one who carries out beneficial activities even for those who are proud that they are ISvaras.
