<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> says that the one who liked him is the lord of both leelA vibhUthi (materialistic realm) and nithya vibhUthi (spiritualistic realm).<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n aththiyUrAn puLLai UrvAn aNimaNiyin<\/em> puLLai UrvAn \u2013 one who has periya thiruvadi (garudAzhwAn) as his vehicle aththiyUrAn puLLai UrvAn<\/strong> \u2013 one who has garuda as his vehicle. Sri kUraththAzhwAn<\/a> divinely mentions in his varadharAjasthavam 25 \u201cAdhirAjayamadhikam bhuvanAnAmISa thE bhiSu nayan kila mouLi:<\/em>\u201d (Oh Lord, your crown gives out the fact that you are the lord of all the worlds!). Being the indwelling lord of thiruvaththiyUr and having the vEdhasvarUpi<\/em> (one who manifests vEdhas) garuda as his vehicle would indicate that he is the supreme being.<\/p>\n puLLai UrvAn<\/strong> \u2013 Just as it is mentioned in thiruvAimozhi 1-8-1<\/a> \u201cOdum puLLERi<\/em>\u201d, only he who rides on garuda and controls the worlds can be the supreme entity.<\/p>\n aNi maNi in thuththi sEr nAgaththin mEl thuyilvAn<\/strong> \u2013 he reclines on thiruvananthAzhwAn (AdhiSEshan) who is decorated with carbuncles and has beautiful hoods. aNimaNi<\/em> means beautiful gems. It refers to carbuncles worn beautifully by AdhiSEshan. in thuththi<\/em> refers to the identification on the beautiful hood. sEr<\/em> refers to AdhiSEshan having the beauty to be appropriate as the mattress for emperumAn<\/a> since he has gems and identification on his beautiful hoods. nAgaththin \u2013 <\/strong><\/em>thiruvananthAzhwAn has all the qualities of being the mattress for emperumAn \u2013 softness, fragrance, coolness etc. mEl thuyilvAn<\/em> \u2013 it is evident that one who has such AdhiSEshan as his mattress is the supreme being. Didn\u2019t kaushIthaki upanishath say \u201camithaujA: paryanka: thasmin brahmA AsthE<\/em>\u201d (ananthan who has excessive strength is the mattress; brahmam (supreme being) resides on top of that mattress)!<\/p>\n muththI maRaiyAvAn<\/strong> \u2013 vEdhas talk about the three types of agnis (ritualistic fire) gArhaspathyam<\/em>, AhavanIyam<\/em> and dhakshinAgni.<\/em> emperumAn<\/a> is worshipped by the vEdhas with the three agnis.<\/em> Unlike other purANas and Agamas which were created by people, vEdhas haven\u2019t been created by anyone [they are called as apaurashEyam, not created by any purusha or soul]. Thus, while the other purANas and Agamas may talk about other deities also, vEdhas have affirmed emperumAn as the supreme being.<\/p>\n If the text is taken as muththi maRaiyAvAn<\/em>, it will indicate that emperumAn<\/a> is affirmed as the means for attaining mOksham (liberation) by the upanishath part of vEdhas.<\/p>\n mA kadal nanjuNdAn thanakkum iRaiyAvAn<\/strong> \u2013 emperumAn is the ISvaran <\/em>(one who controls) for rudhra who drank the poison which came first when the big ocean was churned (for obtaining nectar) and due to which , out of ego, he called himself as ISvaran<\/em>. rig maNdalam 10, sUthram 136-7 says \u201ckESa vishasya pAthrENa yadhrudhrENa apibadh saha<\/em>\u201d (kESava, who has beautiful locks of hair, drank the poison along with rudhra, who was a container for that poison). rudhra, who goes around saying that it was he who drank the poison, was just a vessel and was it not emperumAn<\/a>, who as his antharyAmi (indwelling soul of rudhra) drank that poison!<\/p>\n By saying puLLai UrvAn……nAgaththin mEl thuyilvAn<\/em> which includes nithyasUris garuda and AdhiSEshan, emperumAn<\/a>\u2019s lordship over nithyavibhUthi has been indicated. By saying mA kadal nanjuNdAn, <\/em>rudhra, the head of samsAris, was referred, thus indicating emperumAn\u2019s lordship over leelA vibhUthi. Since maRaiyAvAn<\/em> was mentioned in between these two sets of words, it was indicated that vEdha has affirmed his lordship over both the vibhUthis.\u00a0 AzhwAr<\/a> says next that emperumAn, without considering his superiority, came to thiruvaththiyUr in order to help us.<\/p>\n engaL pirAn aththiyUrAn<\/strong> \u2013 hasn\u2019t such an emperumAn<\/a> come to thiruvaththiyUr in order to help us! By saying “en nenjamEyAn en senniyAn”\u00a0<\/em>AzhwAr<\/a> says that emperumAn, apart from having affection towards him, came to hasthigiri<\/em> (sanksrit name for thiruvaththiyUr) to help all those who are connected to him either directly or through lineage.<\/p>\n We shall move on to the 97th<\/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 that the one who liked him is the lord of both leelA vibhUthi (materialistic realm) and nithya vibhUthi (spiritualistic realm).
