<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> says that for those who follow these three means (please refer to the introduction given under pAsurams 89 and 90), devotion to emperumAn<\/a> is a common denominator and that these people are superior to those who dwell in both nithya vibhUthi (spiritual realm) and leelA vibhUthi (materialistic realm).<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n thamarAvAr yAvarkkum thAmarai mElArkkum<\/em> mAlvaNNan \u2013 emperumAn<\/a> with dark complexion thAL thAmarai malargaL ittu<\/strong> \u2013 without looking at what type of flower it is, offering any type of flower at the divine feet of emperumAn<\/a>. Just as it is mentioned in thiruvAimozhi 1-6-1<\/a> \u201cpurivadhum pugai pUvE<\/em>\u201d there is no flower which is disliked by emperumAn. Alternatively, this can be construed as \u201csuperior lotus flower for the superior, divine feet of emperumAn\u201d. This activity (of offering flowers to emperumAn) is one involving the body, also called as kAyika seyal<\/em> (serving emperumAn through the body) [malargaL ittu].<\/p>\n iRainji<\/strong> \u2013 praising him whole heartedly. This is an activity of speech (praising).<\/p>\n mAl vaNNan thAL thAmarai adaivOm enRu thamarAvAr<\/strong> \u2013 those who are totally devoted to emperumAn<\/a> thinking that they would attain the divine lotus-like feet of emperumAn who has a dark complexion. This is the activity of mind (thinking).<\/p>\n adaivOm enRu thamarAvAr<\/strong> \u2013 meditating through the mind, keeping only emperumAn who said \u201csurrender to me\u201d as the means.<\/p>\n thamarAvAr<\/strong> \u2013 these people will be servile to emperumAn<\/a> through all three faculties of mind, speech and body [as mentioned above].<\/p>\n thAmarai mElARkum<\/strong> \u2013 brahmA who stayed on the lotus and created the worlds; the lotus, which is the origin for creation of all the worlds.<\/p>\n AdaravArththARkum<\/strong> \u2013 Siva, the deity for annihilation, who has tied down many snakes, which keep dancing, as ornaments.<\/p>\n yAvarkkum<\/strong> \u2013 to all the other dhEvas (celestial entities) such as indhra, chandhra et al and to all the people. This indicates all the entities who are in leelA vibhUthi<\/em> (materialistic realm)<\/p>\n amararkkum<\/strong> \u2013 to the indefatigable nithyasUris. This indicates all the entities in the nithya vibhUthi<\/em> (spiritualistic realm).<\/p>\n amarargaL<\/strong> \u2013 these people are superior to all the entities in both the realms.<\/p>\n amarargaL<\/strong> \u2013 deities; very pious people.
