<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> says that with the help of the supreme entity itself we got rid of our enemies and attained the benefit of carrying out kainkaryam to him.<\/p>\n Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n azhagum aRivOmAy valvinaiyAith (yum) thIrppAn<\/em> val vinaiyai \u2013 cruel sins val vinaiyaith thIrppAn azhagum aRivOmAy nizhalum adithARum AnOm<\/strong> \u2013 we, who are like a rat which has weak bones, instead of removing our sins through our\u00a0 virtuous deeds, similar to removing dirt from a new, dirtied dress, have the beautiful knowledge of removing our sins with the help of the supreme being. We also became his servitors by remaining as his shadow and as his footwear. The word adithARu<\/em> refers to both the footwear which fits well with the foot and the lines which are on the sole of the foot.<\/p>\n AzhwAr<\/a> explains next as to for whom we are carrying out service.<\/p>\n suzhalak kudangal thalai mIdhu eduththukkoNdu Adi anRu aththadangadalai mEyAr thamakku<\/strong> \u2013 emperumAn<\/a>, in his incarnation as krishNa, stood at the junction of four streets, manifesting the beauty of his divine form to all, and carried pots on his head, with which he danced. While dancing, he spun around in such a way that it appeared as if the pots were spinning from the sky. In order to take rest from the tiredness of such dancing, he reclined in the milky ocean. For such emperumAn, we became his shadow by remaining with him always. In the same way, we also became his footwear and the lines on the sole of his foot by carrying out service to him. The opinion here is that we became focussed and carried out service to emperumAn by remaining as his shadow during his incarnation as krishNa as well as later when he ascended to thiruppARkadal, much similar to how lakshmaNa had carried out service to SrI rAma, both at ayOdhyA and in the forest, when SrI rAma was awake or asleep.<\/p>\n We will go on to the 32nd<\/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 says that with the help of the supreme entity itself we got rid of our enemies and attained the benefit of carrying out kainkaryam to him.
