He is one who goes in search of what the dhEvas want, which is the lowly nectar, when they did not want him, who is far sweeter than that nectar.<\/p>\n ugandhAn<\/strong> \u2013 He was not angry that the dhEvas did not ask for him but wanted only nectar. He was happy that they came to him for seeking the other benefits too. When people come to him seeking aiSvaryam (wealth), kaivalyam (soul enjoying itself infinitely, instead of carrying out service to emperumAn<\/a>) etc, isn\u2019t he the one who celebrates these acts [of people coming to him for other benefits too] as mentioned by him in bhagavath gIthA 7-18 \u201cudhArA: sarva Evai thE<\/em>\u201d (they are all magnanimous persons, who come to me for alms)!<\/p>\n amudhanna sonmAlai Eththith thozhudhEn<\/strong> \u2013 apart from emperumAn<\/a> who is like nectar and the nectar of dhEvas\u2019, the nectar for AzhwAr<\/a> is the word spoken about emperumAn.<\/p>\n sonmAlai<\/strong> \u2013 this word [about emperumAn] itself is the special nectar for AzhwAr<\/a> as both emperumAn and the nectar of dhEvas\u2019 have faults. Since emperumAn has all sweetness within himself, he is termed as nectar. Since AzhwAr\u2019s word contains emperumAn<\/a> within itself, he says that his word is nectar.<\/p>\n Eththith thozhudhEn<\/strong> \u2013 after praising him with such unbounded sweet words, AzhwAr<\/a> says that he fell at the divine feet of emperumAn<\/a> getting rid of his possessive qualities. He says that it is not that he composed poems on emperumAn knowingly. He merely praised emperumAn and worshipped him. The praised words became a poem, due to emperumAn\u2019s\u00a0 mercy. As mentioned in authentic texts, \u201cyasmin akruthrimagirAm gathirEkakaNtA:<\/em>\u201d (in whom all the faultless words coalesce with one voice), all authentic sources celebrate emperumAn; they celebrate emperumAn who is superior to everyone else; emperumAn who is the meaning for all words; emperumAn who is praised as in jithanthE SlOkam 1-9 \u201cvachasAm vAchyamuththamam<\/em>\u201d (he is the greatest meaning for all words).<\/p>\n Eththi navinRu<\/strong> \u2013 I worshipped him with lot of affection; I worshipped him such that my involvement was explicit in my praise.
