Seeing his theft, mother yaSOdhA tied him to a mortar, just like a black elephant was tied to a pole; I got to see the one who has such nature to be bound and thus have tears in his vast eyes in thirukkOvalUr where the wealth which is shining with periya pirAttiyAr who is born in fragrant lotus flower, sarasvathi and eight shouldered dhurgA who is having amazing deer as her vehicle, and radiantly appearing with great wealth of gem studded mansions.<\/p>\n uRi …<\/em> – Placed in a pot in the rope which will reveal the theft, hanging down from the ceiling, the butter was well secured and remained fresh as it was while being churned; krishNa will trace the path of the butter from the churning spot up to where it was safely placed.<\/p>\n oLiyAl senRu angu uNdAnai<\/em> … – oLi – theft, light. oLiyAl – by theft; alternatively – as said in thiruvAimozhi 3.8.3<\/a> “nAL iLam thingaLaik<\/em> …” (consuming the butter placed inside bamboo hut with the light generated by the pleasing radiance of the young rising moon which is fresh everyday [here fresh young rising moon is an example for krishNa\u2019s shining teeth]). He ate the butter to be said by others as “This could not have been stolen by humans; this must have been taken away by a celestial person”.<\/p>\n kaNdu<\/em> – emperumAn considers the items touched by the favourable ones to be those which sustain him and when he does not get those, he will perish; similarly these devotees (yaSOdhAp pirAtti, AzhwArs) will seek his acts since such acts sustain them; hence they follow him and catch him.<\/p>\n Aychchi<\/em> – Since she has overwhelming love and care towards krishNa, she tied him to the mortar without realising the outcome.<\/p>\n uralOdu Arkka<\/em> – She tied him to a mortar which was found near by since had she gone in search of a good pole or mortar to bind him, he may escape in the meantime.<\/p>\n thaRiyArndha …<\/em> – Just as when an intoxicated elephant which was roaming around freely in the town, gets caught accidentally and will stand being bound to a pole, krishNa who roamed around freely got bound and stood without any other way to react, with tears in his vast eyes.<\/p>\n thanmaiyAnai<\/em> – Supremacy is artificial decoration for him; this simplicity is his inherent nature. yaSOdhAp pirAtti said as in SrIvishNu purANam 5.6.15 \u201cyadhiSaknOshi<\/em>\u201d (free yourself up, if you can).<\/p>\n karum kaLiRE pOla<\/em> – The way he stood without realising about himself. Had he been bound by unfavourable persons like dhuryOdhana et al, he would have easily escaped from it. But when he was bound by favourable persons, he cannot release that.<\/p>\n veRi Arndha malar magaL<\/em> … – AzhwAr is speaking about the one who can control such elephant from independent roaming. By her presence, she will engage emperumAn so that he does not see others’ mistakes. periya pirAttiyAr who is the purushakAra bhUthai (one who performs recommendation) for those who surrender to emperumAn; sarasvathi who lives in the tongue of brAhmaNas and is subservient to periya pirAttiyAr; she assists periya pirAttiyAr and helps in praising emperumAn.<\/p>\n viyan kalai<\/em> … – dhurgA who has an amazing deer as her vehicle and who has eight shoulders; she is the guard for thirukkOvalUr. To compensate for her sadness of revealing krishNa’s identity during his birth, she carefully guards the town.<\/p>\n seRi …<\/em> – I got to see in thirukkOvalUr where gem studded mansions are densely present in a radiant manner.<\/p>\n nAn<\/em> – I who had not realised the presence of such benefit, got to see him in this well protected dhivyadhESam.<\/p>\n In the next article we will enjoy the next pAsuram.<\/p>\n adiyen sarathy ramanuja dasan<\/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: periya thirumozhi >>\u00a0Second centum >> Tenth decad << Previous Highlights from avathArikai (Introduction) No specific introduction. pAsuram uRiyArndha naRuveNNey oLiyAl senRu angu uNdAnaik kaNdu Aychchi uralOdu Arkka thaRiyArndha karungaLiRE pOla ninRu thadangaNgaL pani malgum thanmaiyAnai veRiyArndha malarmagaL nAmangaiyOdu viyan kalai eNthOLinAL viLangu selvach cheRiyArndha maNimAdam … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,16,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46626","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-irandam-ayiram","category-periya-thirumozhi","category-periya-thirumozhi-2nd-centum"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46626","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46626"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46626\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46626"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46626"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46626"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Highlights from avathArikai (Introduction)<\/h3>\n
