<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n Despite AzhwAr<\/a> instructing his divine mind, it appeared to AzhwAr that it kept thinking of the past, with haughtiness. AzhwAr tells his mind \u201cif you approach emperumAn<\/a> and attain him, no shortcoming will come your way\u201d.<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n thozhudhAl pazhudhuNdE thUnIr ulagam<\/em> thU niR ulagam \u2013 world surrounded by oceans with pure water thozhudhAl pazhudhu uNdE<\/strong> \u2013 if you attain emperumAn<\/a> will any fault come your way? If you do not attain him, what calamity will befall you? After telling his heart about the greatness of worshipping emperumAn, AzhwAr<\/a> is asking his heart whether there is any harm in it. He tells his heart to tell him if there is anything wrong in what he is saying. AzhwAr is asking his heart \u201cJust as emperumAn\u2019s stomach became the sustenance for the world and butter became the sustenance for emperumAn, isn\u2019t servitorship the sustenance for you?\u201d.<\/p>\n thU nIr ulagam muzhudhu uNdu<\/strong> \u2013 Am I asking you to drink the bitter juice of neem fruit? Am I not asking you to attain the sweet emperumAn<\/a>?<\/p>\n thU nIr ulagam muzhudhu uNdu<\/strong> \u2013 there is none who is considered as unwanted by emperumAn. Even after keeping the worlds in his stomach during deluge, he was not satisfied.<\/p>\n thU nIr ulagam<\/strong> \u2013 world having clear water. In other words, when emperumAn kept the world in his stomach, he ensured that the waters surrounding the earth did not get muddied. Since he was not satisfied even after swallowing the world, he ate the butter which had the fingerprints of his followers. He filled up the void created after swallowing the world.<\/p>\n moy kuzhalAL Aychchi vizhudhuNda vAyAnai<\/strong> \u2013 only after eating the butter kept by yaSOdhAp pirAtti was his stomach filled up. emperumAn<\/a>, who controls the entire worlds, was subservient to yaSOdhA. It appeared to emperumAn that when he did not eat butter, deluge had set in. He cannot sustain himself if he does not eat his followers\u2019 possessions (emperumAn has the divine mouth which ate butter kept by yaSOdhA who has beautiful locks).<\/p>\n mAl vidai Ezh seRRAnai<\/strong> \u2013 emperumAn<\/a> who killed the seven fearsome bulls. One who killed the seven bulls which were in exult, and which were a hurdle for him to be with nappinnaip pirAtti [incarnation of nILA dhEvi]. This implies that he removes the hurdles of followers who are special to him.<\/p>\n vAnavarkkum sEyAnai<\/strong> \u2013 one who is far away from entities such as brahmA et al. This implies that he is far removed from those who try to attain him through their own efforts.<\/p>\n siRandhu thozhudhAl pazhudhuNdE<\/strong> \u2013 is there any fault in worshipping one who is simple to this followers?<\/p>\n siRandhu<\/strong> \u2013 if you [AzhwAr<\/a>\u2019s heart] make yourself qualified and worship him, is there any harm? After knowing the characteristics of emperumAn<\/a>, you are wondering whether you are qualified to worship him; you are not above entities such as brahmA et al! AzhwAr says that since emperumAn is far removed from entities such as brahmA et al, there is no alternative to falling at his feet.<\/p>\n We will take up the 26th<\/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 Despite AzhwAr instructing his divine mind, it appeared to AzhwAr that it kept thinking of the past, with haughtiness.
