When a person becomes angry at a fighter, first he will target the charioteer of the fighter. emperumAn risked himself by not wearing any armour for his body. He placed himself in a submissive role to place his victory on arjuna. periyAzhwAr thirumozhi 2.1.2 “malai purai thOl mannavarum …<\/em>” (As the great warriors, kings, the hundred brothers were killed by the arrows of arjuna, krishNa stood in front of him and guided him to victory) should be remembered here.<\/p>\n maNith …<\/em> – On the best chariot, the lord of my clan stood, holding a stick. His abode.<\/p>\n kulavu …<\/em> – In the surroundings\/slope of the mountain which is very praiseworthy.<\/p>\n kAl koL kaN kodi<\/em> – kAl – veRRilaik kAl – pole on which the creeper spreads; to hide those poles, the betel creepers spread on them just as lizards stick to the wall. These creepers are nurtured well by the fragrance of the young swathes of the areca tree. kai – betel leaf branches. Having such gardens. River flows next to these gardens. The sEl fish jump around as if they are drunk. Such beautiful river flows into the fertile field. That is – the river flows up to the fertile field and as it reaches here, it stops its flow. Thus, this is the abode where dhArakam (that which supports) is hidden under the dhAryam (that which is supported). While the water nurtures the crops, it appears that the fertile field itself nurtures it. This is similar to krishNa crediting arjuna with the victory though it was he who got arjuna the victory.<\/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 >> Third centum >> First decad << Previous Highlights from avathArikai (Introduction) No specific introduction. pAsuram vElkoL kaiththalaththu arasar vempOrinil visayanukkAy maNith thEr kOlkoL kaiththalaththu endhai pemmAnidam kulavu thaN varaich chAral kAlkoL kaNkodik kai ezhak kamugu iLampALaigaL kamazh sAral sElgaL pAy tharu sezhunadhi … 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":[5,16,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-irandam-ayiram","category-periya-thirumozhi","category-periya-thirumozhi-3rd-centum"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46799","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=46799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46799\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Highlights from avathArikai (Introduction)<\/h3>\n
