This thaniyan was mercifully given by kurugaik kAvalappan<\/a>, one of the disciples of SrIman nAthamunigaL<\/a> (first AchAryar in our sampradhAyam after nammAzhwAr<\/a>) and who learnt bhakthi yOgam from SrIman nAthamunigaL.<\/p>\n sIrArum mAdath thirukkOvalUr<\/strong> \u2013 the dhivya dhESam (divine abode) thirukkOvalUr which is full of divine wealth and having mansions fit for the vaidhikas (those who follow vEdhas, the sacred texts) who practice vEdhams.<\/p>\n adhanuL<\/strong> \u2013 inside that town, in a corridor of mrigaNdu maharishi. Didn\u2019t emperumAn<\/a> come into this corridor with his retinue, since inside the hut was rishi, who follows other means to attain emperumAn and outside the hut are the samsAris who are only interested in other benefits! Only in the corridor were the three AzhwArs present, who were neither followers of other means nor interested in other benefits and emperumAn wanted to be with them.<\/p>\n adhanuL kANappukku<\/strong> \u2013 inside the divine abode (town) and to see a distinguished entity [emperumAn<\/a>] one needed brightness. Was the brightness available? Yes, through the pAsurams of the first two AzhwArs (veyya kadhirOn viLakkAga<\/em>\u00a0 and nanburugi gyAnachchudar viLakku ERRinEn<\/em>) [sun became the powerful light and I lit the powerful light of paragyAnam<\/em>\u00a0total devotion to emperumAn, respectively], both the darkness outside and the darkness inside (mind) were removed.<\/p>\n Who was the entity to be seen?<\/p>\n kArAr karumugilaik kANap pukku<\/strong>\u00a0 \u2013 to see emperumAn who has the complexion of the dark clouds which come during rainy season.<\/p>\n thirukkOvalUr adhanuL kArAr karumugil<\/strong> \u2013 Just as it has been mentioned in thirunedundhANdagam 17 \u201ckuRungudiyuL mugil<\/em>\u201d (the cloud in thirukkuRungudi<\/a>), this was the cloud in thiruukOvalUr, raining waters of mercy.<\/p>\n OrA<\/strong> \u2013 in order to get that experience in the divine mind with total clarity, AzhwAr was meditating.<\/p>\n There is another interpretation to this: thirukkOvalUr adhanuL kArAr karumugilaik kANap pukku \u2013 <\/strong><\/em>in order to see the dark clouds in thirukkOvalUr, due to fear of the clouds, standing inside a corridor; OrA<\/em> \u2013 analysing as to who is jostling with us [with the three AzhwArs] during this time of heavy rains.<\/p>\n thirukkaNdEn enRu uraiththa<\/strong> \u2013 the one who, with the joy of that experience of having seen emperumAn<\/a> with his inner eye (mind), and who spoke about it so that even people like us who came much later can get uplifted with his pAsuram \u201cthirukkaNdEn<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n thirukkaNdEn<\/strong> \u2013 the other two AzhwArs lit lamps. Consequently, this AzhwAr had dharSan. gyAna<\/em> (knowledge) and bhakthi<\/em> (devotion) were the status of the first two AzhwArs and sAkshAthkAram<\/em> (seeing) is the status of this AzhwAr<\/a>.<\/p>\n sIrAn kazhalE<\/strong> \u2013 the divine feet of pEyAzhwAr who experienced the divine emperumAn<\/a> through his prabandham \u201cthirukkaNdEn<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n uraikkaNdAy nenjE ugandhu<\/strong> \u2013 just as AzhwAr<\/a> spoke about his experience through his faculty of speech, you also speak about the divine feet of AzhwAr which you saw, with your faculty of speech.<\/p>\n nenjE<\/strong> \u2013 Oh heart who is so humble towards matters relating to emperumAn<\/a> and his followers!<\/p>\n ugandhu urai<\/strong> \u2013 since it is a matter relating to a bhAgavatha (follower of emperumAn) which is greater than the matter relating to bhagavAn<\/a> himself, speak joyously.<\/p>\n In this thaniyan, it has been stated that the divine feet of those who saw the divine emperumAn<\/a> himself and who spoke about their experience through their pAsurams are the ones which should be constantly meditated upon.<\/p>\n We shall move on to the pravESam for this prabandham 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 sIrArum mAdath thirukkOvalUr adhanuL kArAr karumugilaik kANappukku orAth thirukkaNdEn enRuraiththa sIrAn kazhalE uraikkaNdAy nenjE ugandhu Word by Word Meaning nenjE \u2013 Oh my heart! sIr Arum mAdam \u2013 having beautiful mansions thirukkOvalUr adhanuL \u2013 in a corridor inside thirukkOvalUr (a divine abode) kAr … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19631","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-iyarpa","category-munram-thiruvandhadhi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19631","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19631"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19631\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19631"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19631"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19631"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/mudhalAzhvargaL.jpg\")
