<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n When asked \u201cHow did you get to see such a great supreme being and enjoy him?\u201d, AzhwAr<\/a> responds saying \u201cemperumAn<\/a> entered my heart without any reason and reclined; thus I saw him\u201d.

Leaving aside those who are affectionate towards him, emperumAn will come on his own into the hearts of those who, even if they do not have affection, realise that he is the lord and we are the servitors.
