As said in chAndhOgya upanishath \u201c<em>na cha punarAvarthathe<\/em>\u201d (one does not return again), one can reach that land of no return only after getting rid of all the contractions to knowledge. It is only after reaching that place could one know about him and entities connected to him, fully. Wouldn\u2019t those entities, which are connected to him, remind about him, only after that? How is it then that it was possible for AzhwAr to be reminded of these entities, even while he was living in this world? The knowledge which AzhwAr had, was not obtained due to his effort. That was granted to him by emperumAn through his causeless mercy. Since he was granted faultless knowledge and devotion by emperumAn, it was possible for him to attain the states of <em>parabhakthi<\/em> (knowledge about emperumAn), <em>paragyAnam<\/em> (inability to sustain self when separated from emperumAn) and <em>paramabhakthi<\/em> (attaining emperumAn) simultaneously, even while living here. Thus, the entities connected with emperumAn are capable of reminding him about emperumAn even when he is still here and they are capable of hurting him, too. This is the nature of his knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>panippiyalvAga udaiya thaNvAdai ikkAlam ivvUrp<br>\n<\/em><em>panippiyalvellAm thavirndhu erivIsum andhaNNandhuzhAy<br>\n<\/em><em>panippuyal sOrum thadangaNNi mAmaith thiRaththuk kolAm<br>\n<\/em><em>panippuyal vaNNan sengOl orunAnRu thadAviyadhE<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Word-by-Word Meanings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>panippu<\/em> \u2013 creating chillness<br>\n<em>iyalvAga udaiya<\/em> \u2013 having as its nature<br>\n<em>thaN<\/em> \u2013 being cool<br>\n<em>vAdai<\/em> \u2013 northerly wind<br>\n<em>ikkAlam<\/em> \u2013 at the present time<br>\n<em>ivvUril<\/em> \u2013 in this place<br>\n<em>panippu<\/em> \u2013 making it cold<br>\n<em>iyalvellAm<\/em> \u2013 all its basic nature<br>\n<em>thavirndhu<\/em> \u2013 leaving aside<br>\n<em>eri vIsum<\/em> \u2013 started to emit fire<br>\n<em>am<\/em> \u2013 beautiful<br>\n<em>thaNNam<\/em> \u2013 having coolness<br>\n<em>thuzhAy<\/em> \u2013 for the sake of divine thuLasi<br>\n<em>pani<\/em> \u2013 cold<br>\n<em>puyal<\/em> \u2013 tears, like a rainfall<br>\n<em>sOrum<\/em> \u2013 shedding<br>\n<em>thadam<\/em> \u2013 expansive<br>\n<em>kaNNi<\/em> \u2013 this girl with eyes<br>\n<em>mAmai thiRaththukkolAm<\/em> \u2013 for the sake of beauty<br>\n<em>pani<\/em> \u2013 cool<br>\n<em>puyal<\/em> \u2013 like a cloud<br>\n<em>vaNNan<\/em> \u2013 sarvESvaran, who has such a complexion<br>\n<em>sengOl<\/em> \u2013 order<br>\n<em>oru nAnRu<\/em> \u2013 today<br>\n<em>thadAviyadhu<\/em> \u2013 became bent<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Simple Translation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Making things cool is the nature of northerly wind. But even that wind, in this place and at this time, discarding its nature, is emitting fire everywhere. Why did the sceptre of sarvESvaran, who has the quality of a cool, rain-bearing cloud, bend like this? Was it to destroy the complexion of this lady, who desired his beautiful, cool thuLasi and who sheds tears like rain-bearing clouds?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>vyAkhyAnam<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>panippu iyalvAga udaiya thaN vAdai<\/strong> \u2013 the northerly wind which has chillness alone as its basic nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ikkAlam ivvUr panippu iyalvu ellAm thavirndhu eri vIsum<\/strong> \u2013 Since it is emperumAn who changes the basic nature of the wind, at that place and during that time, the wind is bewildered because of him. Many entities stood there, determined to destroy her, by changing their form and nature. When the form and nature of sarvESvaran could change in her case, should one say anything about the entities which follow him! Protection is emperumAn\u2019s basic form and mercy is his basic nature. He changed his basic form from being protective to causing harm and his basic nature from being merciful to being cruel. Thus the wind also sheds its basic nature of being cool and emits fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>am thaNNandhuzhAy panippuyal sOrum thadam kaNNi<\/strong> \u2013 She stood there, shedding tears copiously, after desiring sarvESvaran\u2019s cool and beautiful thuLasi. Is desiring his divine thuLasi a crime? Even if it were, should one, who has committed such a crime, suffer to this extent? Her eyes are pouring out tears, just like a rain-bearing cloud would let out water that it is bearing. If the tears in her eyes dry up, all the water in the ocean would not be sufficient to fill the eyes again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>mAmaith thiRaththuk kolAm<\/strong> \u2013 Was it not for changing her complexion that emperumAn and his entities changed their basic form and nature so arduously?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>panippuyal . . .<\/strong> \u2013 there are two interpretations for these terms. <em>pani<\/em> would refer to coolness; <em>puyal<\/em> is cloud and <em>vaNNan<\/em> is one who has that complexion. Thus, this combination would refer to emperumAn who removes the three types of anguish (<em>thApathrayam<\/em> which would refer to anguish brought on by self (by indulging in forbidden activities); anguish brought on by nature (floods, cyclone, drought etc); anguish brought on by emperumAn based on our karma) that samsAris suffer from. Alternatively, the term <em>vaNNan<\/em> could be taken as referring to nature; then this would mean emperumAn who showers mercy without any reason, just like cloud showers rain without expecting anything in return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>sengOl<\/strong> \u2013 we suffer due to his orders. Let it be so. We may suffer, but nothing untoward should occur to his sceptre (his orders). In other words, even if the cool wind starts emitting fire, if it had been done under his orders, let me suffer because of that; however, his order should not be crossed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>oru nAnRu thadAviyadhE<\/strong> \u2013 to attain her, his sceptre bent a little, today.
