<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> says that he, in a way, became a servitor at emperumAn<\/a>\u2019s divine feet. He says that even though he did not consider emperumAn as a desirable entity, emperumAn considers him as a desirable person. Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n avarkkadimai pattEn agaththAn puRaththAn<\/em> avarkku \u2013 to that emperumAn<\/a> [as described in the previous pAsurams] avarkku adimai pattEn<\/strong> \u2013 I became a servitor to emperumAn<\/a>. I told him in a superficial way, without feeling wholeheartedly, that I have become his servitor. I said only this much.<\/p>\n agaththAn puRaththAn<\/strong> \u2013 What did emperumAn do when I said this? The minute I became his servitor, emperumAn pervaded me, both from within and outside equally, just like the sage saubhari, and started enjoying me. He became powerless to move away from me.<\/p>\n uvarkkum karungadal nIr uLLAn<\/strong> \u2013 It is said that apart from thiruppARkadal (milky ocean) emperumAn<\/a> reclines in the oceans which surround the earth. It is said that he reclines in all oceans which are great. When he churned thiruppARkadal, haven\u2019t [knowledgeable] people mercifully stated that he had churned other oceans too, such as in thiruppAvai 30<\/a> \u201cvangakkadal kadaindha<\/em>\u201d! We can also construe this to mean that he has taken thiruppARkadal as his dwelling place. (he is reclining in the dark, salty oceans surrounding the earth. Has it not been mentioned in periyAzhwAr thirumozhi 2-6-6 \u201cneelak kadalil nedungAlam kaNvaLarndhAn<\/em>\u201d (he reclined in the bluish ocean for a very long time)).<\/p>\n thuvarkkum pavaLa vAy pU magaLum<\/strong> \u2013 periya pirAtti (SrI mahAlakshmi) who has lips which are like reddish coral. AzhwAr<\/a> says that the reason for emperumAn<\/a> pervading him is only to get the approval of periya pirAtti, who is happy due to this [act of entering me], through her smile.<\/p>\n panmaNip pUN Aram thigazhum thirumArvan thAn<\/strong> \u2013 emperumAn has divine chest which is decorated with ornaments made of the nine gemstones and necklaces. Alternatively, panmaNippUNAram<\/em> could be considered as one word and the meaning would be that he has necklace made of different types of gems.<\/p>\n agaththAn puRaththAn<\/strong> \u2013 emperumAn<\/a>, who has a divine chest which is sweet and appropriate for periya pirAtti, remains within and outside of AzhwAr<\/a> and is overjoyed that he has got something which he couldn\u2019t ever get. Is it not such emperumAn who has such ornaments, greatness and the affection of pirAtti<\/a>, who has come with desire, inside and outside of AzhwAr! AzhwAr is very joyous that emperumAn has such affection for him.<\/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 he, in a way, became a servitor at emperumAn\u2019s divine feet.
