She realised that paramapadham can be entered only by those who are engaged with <em>parabhakthi, paragyAnam<\/em> and <em>paramabhakthi<\/em> and not by others. Then she sent messengers to emperumAn who had incarnated as krishNa (in the previous pAsuram) as mentioned in the term <em>kaNNan vaigundhan<\/em>. She realised that here too, it is possible only for those who had lived at the same time as the incarnated emperumAn and not for those who followed later. Hence she now sends messenger to thiruvEngadamudaiyAn who resides on the hills of thiruvEngadam and who is easily approachable for those who had come after the time of incarnations.<\/p>\n<p>Let us go through the pAsuram and its meanings:<\/p>\n<p><em>isaimingaL thUdhu enRu isaiththAl isaiyilam en thalai mEl<br \/>\n<\/em><em>asaimingaL enRAl asaiyum kolAm am pon mAmaNigal<br \/>\n<\/em><em>thisaimin miLirum thiruvEngadaththu van thAL simayam<br \/>\n<\/em><em>misai min miLiriya pOvAn vazhikkoNda mEgangaLE <\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Word-by-Word Meanings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>am<\/em> &#8211; beautiful<br \/>\n<em>pon<\/em> \u2013 gold<br \/>\n<em>mA<\/em> \u2013 excellent<br \/>\n<em>maNigaL<\/em> \u2013 gems<br \/>\n<em>thisai<\/em> \u2013 in the directions<br \/>\n<em>min<\/em> \u2013 like lightning<br \/>\n<em>miLirum<\/em> \u2013 shining<br \/>\n<em>thiruvEngadam<\/em> \u2013 known as thiruvEngadam<br \/>\n<em>van<\/em> \u2013 being strong<br \/>\n<em>thAL<\/em> \u2013 having foothills<br \/>\n<em>simayam misai<\/em> \u2013 with the mountain as motive<br \/>\n<em>min<\/em> \u2013 lightning<br \/>\n<em>miLiriya<\/em> \u2013 making it glow<br \/>\n<em>pOvAn<\/em> \u2013 to go<br \/>\n<em>vazhikkoNda<\/em> \u2013 attempting<br \/>\n<em>mEgangaLE<\/em> \u2013 Oh clouds!<br \/>\n<em>thUdhu<\/em> \u2013 message of errand<br \/>\n<em>isaimingaL enRu<\/em> \u2013 please state<br \/>\n<em>isaiththAl<\/em> \u2013 if I say<br \/>\n<em>isaiyilam<\/em> \u2013 you went without stating<br \/>\n<em>en thalai mEl<\/em> \u2013 atop my head<br \/>\n<em>asaimingaL<\/em> \u2013 roam<br \/>\n<em>enRAl<\/em> \u2013 if requested<br \/>\n<em>asaiyum kolAm<\/em> \u2013 could you not?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Simple Translation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>thiruvEngadam is emitting a glow which is shining like gold and various gems in all the directions.
