The meaning for this is: \u201cThese are not the words which I heard from your messenger, hanuman. When we were together, did I not hear from you directly, when you mercifully said these words? When we were together, when you were ready to give whatever I had asked for, I had asked you \u2018Among all the qualities, which quality do you consider to be \u2019the most eminent?\u2019. You had said \u2018When others suffer, we will not tolerate it. This is the most eminent <em>dharmam<\/em> which we consider\u2019. The inner meaning for the conversation between them is: inner meaning of pirAtti\u2019s question is \u2018What do we do if there is any separation between us?\u2019 The inner meaning of SrI rAma pirAn\u2019s response is \u2018I, who consider compassion as the most eminent quality, will not allow you to suffer in separation from me\u2019\u201d The meaning of pirAtti\u2019s word <em>mayA Srutha<\/em> is: \u201cWill it pass off as something which you said through your mouth and I listened through my ears? Will it not be practised by you as your activity?\u201d sIthAp pirAtti wants hanuman to ask SrI rAma when he returns to meet him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>kuRumbanai<\/strong> \u2013 only chakravarthith thirumagan (son of emperor dhaSaratha) would know about compassion, would you [ANdAL addressing kaNNa pirAn], a mischievous person, know about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>than kaich chArngam adhuvE pOl puruva vattam azhagiya<\/strong> \u2013 nothing outside him could match his eyebrow.

What is the benefit of this beauty with one who is without affection?

Thus, the opinion is that when he comes to Sri brindhAvanam, he looks like the rising sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did not vAlmIki too say that SrI rAma looked like the rising sun, as mentioned in SrI rAmAyaNam ayOdhyA kANdam 3-36 \u201c<em>thadhAsanavaram prApya vyadhIpayatha rAghava<\/em>: l<em> svayEva prabhayA mErumudhayE vimalO ravi<\/em>: ll\u201d (After seating on that eminent seat [throne], just as the rising sun makes mEru mountain to be radiant, SrI rAma made it radiant)? vAlmIki used the metaphor to refer to the compassionate SrI rAma pirAn during the time of his coronation when he had decorated himself with divine ornaments and sat on the throne, talking with a smile to people who came to see him. ANdAL uses the same metaphor which was used by vAlmIki, for kaNNa pirAn in SrI brindhAvanam, when he was speaking to the cowherd girls.
