Now he speaks of the benefits that emperumAn accrued from AzhwAr.<\/p>\n avan ennadhu uLLaththu ninRAn irundhAn<\/strong> \u2013 AzhwAr implies that emperumAn reclined in thiruppARkadal (milky ocean) and thiruvarangam (SrIrangam) in order to enter AzhwAr<\/a>\u2019s heart. Just as it is mentioned \u201crakshyApEkshAm prathIkshathE<\/em>\u201d (looking forward to the desire of the protected), emperumAn keeps waiting for a person to be protected and once he obtained a foothold to enter AzhwAr\u2019s heart, he was overjoyed and carried out the activities of standing, sitting and lying down in AzhwAr’s heart as if he had got something which he could never have got.<\/p>\n kidakkumE veLLaththaravaNaimEl<\/strong> \u2013 hereafter, will he ever lie down on top of AdhiSEshan in SrIvaikuNtam? Once a person gets the readily available means, will he\/she observe the rituals to get to the means? Here, the reference made to AdhiSEshan in thiruppARkadal is also applicable to his postures of standing, sitting or lying down in other dhivyadhESams<\/a> (divine abodes) such as paramapadham, thirumalai, thiruvarangam etc.<\/p>\n We will go on to the 31st<\/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 was asked \u201cIf he is ugappuruvan, oLiyuruvan and magappuruvan (as seen in the previous pAsuram), how did you see him?\u201d He responds \u201cWhen he has discarded SrIvaikuNtam and taken residence in my heart, what is the difficulty in seeing … 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":[6,13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21247","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-iyarpa","category-nanmugan-thiruvandhadhi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21247","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=21247"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21247\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21247"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21247"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21247"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/antharyami.jpg\")
