Since this is literature of knowledge, this will be as said in &#8220;gyAnach chudar viLakku&#8221; (radiant lamp of knowledge) which will eliminate that ignorance.<\/li>\n<li>adangA nedum piRavi nanjukku nalla amudham &#8211; For the poison of birth which goes on forever, being uncontrollable by anything, nalla amudham &#8211; the antidote to that poison, the nectar which cures that poison. thirumAl thirunAmam (divine name of SrIman nArAyaNa) remains the nectar which cures the poison of samsAram. thirumangai AzhwAr&#8217;s dhivyaprabandham reveals the thirumanthram which eliminates samsAram (bondage).<\/li>\n<li>thamizha nal nUl thuRaigaL anjukku ilakkiyam &#8211; dhrAvida SAsthram (thamizh scripture, i.e. AzhwArs&#8217; dhivyaprabandhams) is with distinguished five identities such as ezhuththu, sol, poruL, yAppu and alankAram (aNi). Alternative explanation &#8211; there is an ancient literature named nannUl in thamizh language which determines the five identities; for the five identities which are shown in that literature, ilakkiyam &#8211; they (thamizh scholars) speak about &#8220;ilakkaNa ilakkiyam&#8221; (grammar and literature); for such identities, AzhwAr&#8217;s dhivyaprabandham will be the goal (example). By seeing AzhwAr&#8217;s dhivyaprabandham, they will build the identity in those literature.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>AzhwAr&#8217;s dhivyaprabandham is not just the goal for thamizh, it is AraNa sAram &#8211; essence of vEdham.\u00a0 This prabandham reveals the meaning of thirumanthram.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>AraNa sAram &#8211; AzhwAr started in periya thirumozhi 1.1.1 &#8220;nArAyaNA ennum nAmam&#8221; (the divine name, nArAyaNa), and spoke in periya thirumozhi 1.8.9 &#8220;pEsumin thirunAmam ettezhuththum&#8221; (Recite the divine name which is part of ashtAksharam), periya thirumozhi 8.10.3 &#8220;nin thiruvettezhuththum kaRRu &#8211; nAn uRRadhum un adiyArkku adimai&#8221; (after learning SrI ashtAksharam, I realised that I am a servitor of your devotees), periya thirumozhi 6.10.9 &#8220;imaiyOr thalaivarudaiya thirunAmam nangaL vinaigaL thavira uraimin namO nArAyaNAmE&#8221; (Recite the divine name, nArAyaNa, of the lord of nithyasUris, to be freed from our sins), periya thirumozhi 10.6.1 &#8220;nara nArAyaNanAy ulagaththu aRa nUl singAmai viriththavan&#8221; (Being nara rishi and nArAyaNa rishi, emperumAn stopped the vEdham which is for the well-being of the world, from shrinking and explained the same in detail), periya thirumozhi 8.10.9 &#8220;nAttinAy ennai &#8211; kAttinAy&#8221; (You placed me as your servitor and showed me the meanings), thirunedundhANdagam &#8220;mandhiraththai mandhiraththAl maRavAdhu&#8221; (To remain without forgetting bhagavAn with the help of thirumanthram), periya thirumozhi 7.4.4 &#8220;pErALan pErOdhum&#8221; (the great personalities who recite the name of the great bhagavAn) and in siRiya thirumadal &#8220;nArAyaNA Oh maNivaNNA&#8221; (Oh nArAyaNa! Oh maNivaNNa!) and fully analysed the meanings of thirumanthram only. Hence, it is said to be &#8220;AraNa sAram&#8221;. thirumanthram is said to be the essence of all of vEdham.<\/li>\n<li>para samayap panjuk kanalin poRi &#8211; For the followers of other philosophies which are considered as the bundle of cotton, AzhwAr&#8217;s pAsurams will be like the fire during deluge.
