to have him freed from the strong curse, and to make the great sin which cannot be easily eliminated and which was caused by his act of\u00a0 severing the head of brahmA who is the master of the universe and his father, without any reason, be eliminated, the greatly generous emperumAn mercifully gave alms into the skull which has no blood and which only has bones; the abode of such emperumAn [who eliminated rudhran&#8217;s suffering].<\/p>\n<p><em>pALai &#8230;<\/em> &#8211; The big fruit from the coconut trees in the middle of tall areca trees which have swathes and which have filled the space in the sky, falls in to the pond, due to the close proximity between the coconut trees and the pond; the vALai fish think that the coconuts fall in there, aiming at them and leave the place seeking a place which is safer for them.<\/p>\n<p>In the next article we will enjoy the next pAsuram.<\/p>\n<p>adiyen sarathy ramanuja dasan<\/p>\n<p>archived in <a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\">https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>pramEyam (goal) \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/koyil.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/koyil.org<\/a><br \/>\npramANam (scriptures) \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/granthams.koyil.org\">http:\/\/granthams.koyil.org<\/a><br \/>\npramAthA (preceptors) \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org\">http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org<\/a><br \/>\nSrIvaishNava education\/kids portal \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/pillai.koyil.org\/\">http:\/\/pillai.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: periya thirumozhi &gt;&gt;
