[In arumpadham, a nice story is narrated to explain this aspect of emperumAn forcefully accepting <a href=\"http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org\/index.php\/nammazhwar\/\">AzhwAr<\/a>. Once, there was a brAhmaNa who was very miserly. Another brAhmaNa was planning to go and ask him for food and the on-lookers warned him that he would not get anything. He said to them that somehow he will get some food. He went to the miserly brAhmaNa&#8217;s house and asked him for even a little bit of food. The miserly brAhmaNa refused to give even that. When this person persisted, the miserly brAhmaNa said &#8220;OK, I can give food, but unfortunately there is no plantain leaf to serve food on&#8221;. Hearing that, the guest brAhmaNa said, &#8220;Here! I have a leaf, now you serve me food&#8221;. The miserly brAhmaNa said &#8220;When coming to kill some one, would they not come with a knife?&#8221; and gave him food in the end.
