avathArikai (Introduction)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Being the starting point for rooting out demons as well as to fulfil the desire of sage viSvAmithra, SrI rAma had destroyed demon thAtakA and her sons, subAhu and mArIcha. AzhwAr describes in this pAsuram, these incidents.<\/p>\n

Simple Translation<\/strong><\/p>\n

SrI rAma killed the demon thAtakA, who came with anger and opposed the yAgam, conducted by sage viSvAmithra, by shooting an arrow with unmatched power. He destroyed the demons subAhu and mArIcha who came to place hurdles in the yAgam and protected the yAgam. He has mercifully taken residence in thiruchchithra kUtam in thillai nagar, which has beautiful gardens, where flowers are blossoming amidst reddish sprouts. Know that he is the sarvESvaran, who is sitting on a throne, embedded with unique gemstones, and praised by three thousand brAhmaNas, who desire nothing other than emperumAn.<\/p>\n

vyAkyAnam<\/strong><\/p>\n

vandhedhirndha thAdagai<\/strong> \u2013 when SrI rAma and lakshmaNa accompanied sage viSvAmithra to protect his yAgam, thAtakA, the demon, came on her own and waged a battle. Just as thirumangai AzhwAr had mercifully said in periya thirumadal \u201cthannigar onRillAdha thAdagai<\/em>\u201d (thAtakA who had none to match her), since she was without a match in her qualities of deception and cruelty, she came on her own and fought.<\/p>\n

than uraththaik kIRi<\/strong> \u2013 tearing her heart which had thought of harming SrI rAma<\/p>\n

varu kurudhi pozhi thara<\/strong> \u2013 her blood poured out, like a stream from a mountain flowing on reddish soil<\/p>\n

van kaNai onRu Evi<\/strong> \u2013 shooting a divine arrow which had unmatched power<\/p>\n

mandhiram koL maRai munivan vELvi kAththu<\/strong> \u2013 whenever sage viSvAmithra, who had all the manthras under his control and who was well versed in vEdhams, conducted yAgams, thAtakA and her sons would come and stop the yAgam by dirtying it. Since he could not afford to get angry during the conduct of yAgam, the sage could not curse them. Hence, whenever he was conducting yAgam, he would be fearing whether they would come yet again to disturb him. To ensure that he does not have any fear and to ensure that his yAgam would be taken to completion in a proper manner, they (SrI rAma and lakshmaNa) protected the yAgam.<\/p>\n

vELvi kAththu vallarakkar uyiruNda maindhan mANmin<\/strong> \u2013 even when he was a child, SrI rAma destroyed subAhu and mArIcha who came to create hurdles for the yAgam. Though mArIcha was not destroyed then, since subsequently he would get frightened by merely hearing the sound \u201cra\u201d<\/em> in SrI rAma, he was as good as having been destroyed. Since sage viSvAmithra enunciated gAyathri manthram<\/em>, AzhwAr refers to him as mandhiram koL mAmunivan<\/em>.<\/p>\n

sem thaLir vAy malar nagai sEr sezhum thaN sOlaith thillainagarth thiruchchithrakUdam thannuL<\/strong>– in this dhivyadhESam<\/em> (divine abode) which is decorated with gardens which have flowers blossomed amidst reddish sprouts, which were beautiful and which remove the ennui of beholders<\/p>\n

andhaNaragaL oru mUvAyiravar<\/strong> \u2013 brAhmaNas who were referred to as thillai mUvAyiravar<\/em> (three thousand in thillai nagar), for whom carrying out bhagavath kainkaryam<\/em> (service to emperumAn) was the only benefit which they desired and did not bother about any other benefit. Thus, it is clear that even during AzhwAr\u2019s time, thillai mUvAyiravar<\/em> mercifully resided there only, for carrying out bhagavath kainkaryam<\/em>. Later, during the time of kirumi kaNda chOzhan<\/em> (a descendent of king rAja rAja chOzhan), these SrI vaishNavas were converted into Saivaites, according to historical facts. It is pertinent to note that even now, when this ancient SrI vaishNava temple is being occupied by Saivaites, emperumAn is lying in an elevated place stretching out his divine feet while natarAja is dancing in a lower place, making emperumAn happy.<\/p>\n

Eththa<\/strong> \u2013 to sing pallANdu (praising emperumAn) together<\/p>\n

aNi maNi Asanaththu irundha ammAn thanE<\/strong> \u2013 Just as it has been said in thiruppAvai 23 \u201ckOppudaiya sIriya singAsanaththirundhu<\/em>\u201d (sitting on a majestic throne), the one sitting on an eminent throne, embedded with distinguished gemstones, is sarvESvaran only.<\/p>\n

Next, we will take up the 3rd pAsuram of this decad.<\/p>\n
