Is it possible for sIthAp pirAtti, who was looking at her <em>svarUpam<\/em> (basic nature of being totally dependent on emperumAn) to comfort me? sIthAp pirAtti was not bewildered, as mentioned in SrI rAmAyaNam sundhara kANdam 19-4 \u201c<em>rAmasya vyavasAyagyA lakshmaNasya cha dhImatha<\/em>: l<em> nAthyartham kshubhyathE dhEvI gangEva jaladhAgamE<\/em> ll\u201d (Since [sIthAp pirAtti[] knew the firmness of SrI rAma and that of lakshmaNa, who is wise, dhEvi did not get muddled even a little bit, just like gangA doesn\u2019t, during monsoon time when it rains); as mentioned in SrI rAmAyaNam yudhdha kANdam 18-33, when SrI rAma tells sugrIva \u201c<em>sakrudhEva prapannAya thavAsmIthi cha yAchathE<\/em> l <em>abhayam sarvabhUthEbhyO dhadhami Ethath vratham mama<\/em> ll\u201d (To the person who surrenders to me once and to the person who tells me \u2018I am your servitor\u2019 I offer protection from all entities alive. This is my solemn vow) and as mentioned in SrI rAmAyaNam yudhdha kANdam 5-93 \u201c<em>avagarahyArNavam svapsyE saumithrE<\/em> !<em> bhavathA vinA<\/em> l<em> kathanchith prajvalan kAma<\/em>:<em> sa mAm suptham jalE dhahEth<\/em> ll\u201d (Oh lakshmaNa! (Since looking at you reminds me of sIthA) I am going to leave you and enter the ocean to get some sleep. The fire of love, which is singeing, will burn me, who is going to sleep in the waters, with difficulty only). Since sIthAp pirAtti knew well the auspicious qualities of SrI rAma, who has taken a solemn vow to protect those who take refuge under him, she was able to sustain herself. Has SrI rAma not said often that he will not give up on those who have a little bit of affection for him and that if he had to give up on them, he would not sustain his life any longer? Has he not told sIthAp pirAtti herself, as in SrI rAmAyaNam AraNya kANdam 10-19 \u201c<em>apyaham jIvitham jahyAm thvAm vA sIthE sa lakshmaNAm<\/em> l <em>na thu prathigyAm samSruthaya brAhamaNEbhyO viSEshatha<\/em>: ll\u201d (Oh sithA! I may give up my life, you and lakshmaNa too; but I will not give up on my solemn vow, especially the promise given to brAhmaNas). Thus, there is no shortcoming in sIthAp pirAtti sustaining herself. The opinion is that kaNNan is not like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the SrI rAmAyaNa SlOkam seen earlier \u201c<em>rAmasya vyavasAyagyA<\/em>\u201d the meaning for the term \u201c<em>lakshmaNasya cha dhImatha<\/em>:\u201d has been explained. Even when SrI rAma went after the illusory deer, swayed by his consort sIthAp pirAtti\u2019s desire, not knowing that it is the demon mArIchan in disguise, iLaiya perumAL (lakshmaNa) was clear in his mind that it was only an illusion and not a real deer. Since sIthAp pirAtti knew the firmness of lakshmaNa, who was wise, she did not become bewildered. The meaning for the term \u201c<em>nAthyartham kshubhyathE dhEvI<\/em>\u201d (sIthAp pirAtti was not bewildered even a little bit) is \u2013 Since she was very dear to SrI rAma such that he was proud of her, even though there were reasons for her to be bewildered, she did not get bewildered. This is the reason that she was able to sustain herself even in a situation when she could have lost her life. The meaning for the term \u201c<em>gangEva jaladhAgamE<\/em>\u201d (like river gangA during rains) is \u2013 just as river gangA does not become muddled even if it rains incessantly, sIthAp pirAtti was not muddled during her distressed time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AyarpAdi kavarndhuNNum kArERu uzhakka uzhakkuNdu<\/strong> \u2013 just as sIthAp pirAtti was able to sustain herself, by meditating on the auspicious qualities of SrI rAma, is it possible for those who were hurt by the mischiefs of kaNNan? There were five lakh families in SrI gOkulam. When kaNNan diverts all the love that he had towards all the girls in those families, towards me alone, how could I survive?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>thaLarndhum muRindhum kidappEnai<\/strong> \u2013 just as he, who is like a dark bull, tormented the girls in five lakh families of SrI gOkulam by stealing their hearts, he trampled my heart too, without any compassion, in such a manner that my bones and joints have become weakened, making people to say \u201cHereafter, we cannot see her in one piece\u201d. I have been reduced to such a state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ArAvamudhanaiyAn than amudha vAyil URiya nIr<\/strong> \u2013 In the sanjIvani hill which hanuman, in SrI rAmAyaNam, had brought, there were two herbs, called as <em>vichalyakaraNi<\/em> and <em>sandhAnakaraNi.<\/em> Of these two, while <em>vichalyakaraNi<\/em> removed the arrows which had pierced the bodies of the army of monkeys, <em>sandhAnakaraNi<\/em> set right the injuries created by the arrows. She [ANdAL] desires kaNNan, who is like an insatiable nectar, to be <em>vichalyakaraNi<\/em> and desires the nectar-like water secreted in his divine mouth as <em>sandhAnakaraNi<\/em>. Alternatively, we could construe this as ANdAL considering kaNNan, who is <em>ArAvamudhamanaiyAn<\/em> (insatiable nectar), himself as both <em>vichalyakaraNi<\/em> and <em>sandhAnakaraNi<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>than amudhavAyil URiya nIrdhAn koNarndhu<\/strong> \u2013 She had said in the previous pAsuram \u201c<em>mArvil koNarndhu purattIr<\/em>\u201d. She says that even if they could not get a garland which had connection with several limbs in his divine form, they could get the divine water from one divine limb of his \u2013 the divine mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>pularAmE parukki<\/strong> \u2013 sprinkling that divine water on my physical form such that it does not wither away and making me to drink it. Just like saliva is a medicine for snake-bite etc, she says that for her disease too, the divine water secreted in kaNNan\u2019s divine mouth is a medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>iLaippai nIkkIrE<\/strong> \u2013 for my condition, he should himself be brought. Since that could not be done, she tells them to bring, at the least, this divine water and remove her fatigue. Just as saliva is a medicine for a poisonous bite, for her disease too, isn\u2019t his saliva a medicine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we will consider the 5<sup>th<\/sup> pAsuram of this decad.<\/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=\"http:\/\/koyil.org\/\">http:\/\/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=\"http:\/\/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 &gt;&gt; Thirteenth decad &nbsp;&lt;&lt; Previous avathArikai (Introduction) \u2013 she tells them to make her imbibe the divine nectar from the mouth of mAdhavan and remove her fatigue.
