Through this verse, the following three are indicated: (1) only that entity who has divine thuLasi as a garland is the supreme entity. (2) Just as the divine thuLasi becomes fresh and blossoms on being together with emperumAn\u2019s divine feet, even for those attain his divine feet, freshness and effect of blossoming will result. (3) Since they are decorated with the divine thuLasi, emperumAn\u2019s divine feet have unmatched sweetness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>virumbi ninRu iRainjuvERku irangu<\/strong> \u2013 you should shower your grace on me who has started to enjoy you, after getting the desire to enjoy you. You should show your mercy and shower your grace on me saying\u201cLet him come out of all the worldly pursuits which destroy his basic nature; let him enjoy me\u201d. By doing this alone, my soul will get uplifted; hence, you should certainly do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>arangavANanE<\/strong> \u2013 Oh one who is reclining in SrI rangam, being its lord! The purpose of your reclining in the temple is only to remove, through your beauty, the involvement with worldly pursuits and to create an involvement with you, for those who not have the means in them for protecting themselves, and who have started enjoying you. Just as thoNdaradippodi AzhwAr said in his thirumAlai 16<sup>th<\/sup> pAsuram \u201c<em>pOdharE enRu sollip pundhiyil pugundhu thanpAl Adharam perugavaiththa azhagan<\/em>\u201d (emperumAn\u2019s beauty is such that it will make one to be amazed and to get involved with matters related to him), this AzhwAr too says that it is emperumAn\u2019s beauty which is our means as well as our end goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>karumbirundha kattiyE<\/strong> \u2013 AzhwAr says that the teacher who created this interest in him towards emperumAn was his [emperumAn\u2019s] sweetness only. Oh, one who is like a sugarcane, being naturally sweet on all sides! The term <em>katti<\/em> emphasises the fact that like sugarcane, there is no part which has to be discarded or which is unwanted, in emperumAn. The usage of the term <em>&#8220;karubu pOl irundha<\/em>&#8221; indicates that unlike a block of sugar which needs to be heated in order to get the sweetness all around, emperumAn is sweet by his nature. The meaning here is that he is like the naturally sweet block of sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>kadal kidhandha kaNNanE<\/strong> \u2013 Oh, one who is reclining in the milky ocean! This indicates the root cause for the incarnation of periya perumAL (the presiding deity in SrI rangam). He says \u201cOh, one who has the simplicity to come down mercifully to recline in the milky ocean for removing the hurdles of your followers, even before they had prayed to you\u201d. Since emperumAn is reclining in the milky ocean in order to remove the hurdles of brahmA often, this indicates that the simplicity and beauty, seen in emperumAn in thiruppARkadal, are seen in periya perumAL too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>irumbaranga venjaram thurandha vil irAmanE<\/strong> \u2013 oh the divine son of emperor dhaSarathan, who holds the bow, with which you shot the fiery arrows which sank deeply on the bodies of enemies, which were firm, like iron! Through this verse, it is indicated that the valour and beauty of the divine son of emperor dhaSarathan are very much seen in periya perumAL, just as it has been mentioned by thoNdaradippodi AzhwAr in thirumAlai 11 \u201c<em>nam sEvaganAr maruviya periya kOyil<\/em>\u201d (the eminent temple where one, who is our lord and who is a great warrior, came to reside fittingly). Wasn\u2019t the valour and beauty of the divine son of emperor dhaSarathan spoken of in SrI rAmAyaNam ayOdhyA kANdam 83-8 too &#8220;<em>mEghaSyAmam mahAbAhum sthirasathvam dhrudavrutham<\/em> l <em>kadhA dhrakshyAmahE rAmam jagatha<\/em>:<em> SOkanASanam<\/em> ll&#8221; (When will we see SrI rAma, who is dark like a cloud, who has long hands, who has firm strength, who has firm penance and who removes sorrows of the people?). The implied meaning for this verse is \u2013 when you are the ordained lord, you are in proximity, you are with unmatched sweetness and you are with the nature of destroying enemies and when I have the inclination towards you, there is no reason for me to lose out. Hence, you should mercifully shower your grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pAsuram should be rearranged as <em>kadal kidandha kaNNanE<\/em> \u2013 <em>irumbaranga venjaram thurandha vil irAmanE<\/em> \u2013 <em>arangavANanE<\/em> \u2013<em> surumbu arangu thaN thuzhAy thudhaindhu alarndha pAdhamE<\/em> \u2013 <em>virumbi ninRu iRainjuvERku irangu<\/em> to get the correct sequence of meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we will take up the 94<sup>th<\/sup> pAsuram of this prabandham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>adiyEn krishNa rAmAnuja dhAsan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>archived in <a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\">https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>pramEyam (goal) \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/koyil.org\/\">https:\/\/koyil.org<\/a><br>pramANam (scriptures) \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/granthams.koyil.org\">http:\/\/granthams.koyil.org<\/a><br>pramAthA (preceptors) \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org\">http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org<\/a><br>SrIvaishNava education\/kids portal \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/pillai.koyil.org\/\">http:\/\/pillai.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SrI: SrImathE SatakOpAya nama: SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama: SrImadh varavara munayE nama: Full Series &lt;&lt; Previous avathArikai (Introduction) In the previous pAsuram, AzhwAr had told emperumAn \u2018adaikkalam pugundha ennai anjal enna vENdumE\u2019 in line with the assurance given in bhagavath gIthA 18-66 charama SlOkam \u201cmA Sucha:\u201d (do not grieve), granting him refuge.
