Such emperumAn [in dhwApara yugam] incarnated as krishNa and suckled on the bosom of pUthanA, who had a splendour about her as a result of her cruelty, so hard, that her life itself got removed. Such krishNa, after drinking her milk, slept as if he did not know anything about what had happened. yaSOdhAp pirAtti is calling her friends, who had well-rounded bosoms, to come and have a look at the divine thighs of krishNa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>vyAkhyAnam (Commentary)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>piRangiya pEychchi mulai suvaiththu uNdittu<\/strong> \u2013 pUthanA had a splendour about her, which came about, not because of her beauty or her good thoughts, but because of her cruelty. krishNa suckled hard on her bosom such that along with her milk, her life too came out of her bosom. The term <em>uNdittu<\/em> is to be treated as a single word and not as a compounded form of <em>uNdu<\/em> and <em>ittu<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>uRanguvAn pOlE kidandha ippiLLai<\/strong> \u2013 this little infant krishNa is lying as if he did not know about the valorous deed which he had carried out in killing that pUthanA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>maRangoL \u2026<\/strong> \u2013 during krutha yugam, the monster hiraNya kashyap had hatred for his son, prahlAdhan [since prahlAdhan showed his devotion towards emperumAn]. emperumAn [as narasimha] kept hiraNyan on his thighs and tore the chest of that monster. Such emperumAn, who is lying now as krishNa, carries resemblance to that act, in his thighs. Come and have a look at such divine thighs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>kuvi mulaiyIr vandhu kANIrE<\/strong> \u2013 Oh women who have well rounded bosoms! Come and have a look at his divine thighs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his svApadhESam, thiruvAimozhip piLLai says that when yaSOdhAp pirAtti is calling her friends to come and have a look at krishNa\u2019s divine thighs, it appeared that those thighs still carried blood stains [formed when he, as narasimha, had kept the monster hiraNya on his lap and torn his chest]. The reason for recalling that incident now is because of exhibiting ability to eliminate enemy [hiraNya kashyap for narasimhan and pUthanA for krishNa] and also because both are incarnations of the same SrIman nArAyaNa. Alternatively, when yaSOdhAp pirAtti was hugging krishNa as her nature, since she admired his divine thighs, she was calling other herd-women to come and have a look at his thighs. The reason for describing their bosoms as well rounded is because bosoms represent devotion towards emperumAn and when they are well rounded, the devotion is being nurtured well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We shall next consider the 6<sup>th<\/sup> pAsuram of this thirumozhi.<\/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: Sri varavaramunayE nama: periyAzhwAr thirumozhi&nbsp;&gt;&gt;&nbsp;First Centum&nbsp;&gt;&gt;&nbsp;Second Decad Previous avathArikai (Introduction) After enjoying the beauty of krishNa\u2019s divine knees, AzhwAr next enjoys the beauty of his divine thighs. piRangiya pEychchi mulai suvaiththu uNdittuuRanguvAnpOlE kidandha ippiLLaimaRangoL iraNiyan mArvai mun kINdAnkuRangugaLai vandhu kANiRE kuvi mulaiyIr vandhu kANIrE Word-by-Word Meanings mun \u2013 &#8230; <a title=\"periyAzhwAr thirumozhi \u2013 1.2.5 \u2013 piRangiya pEychchi\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/2025\/06\/periyazhwar-thirumozhi-1-2-5\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about periyAzhwAr thirumozhi \u2013 1.2.5 \u2013 piRangiya pEychchi\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,717,718],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56051","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mudhalayiram","category-periyazhwar-thirumozhi","category-periyazhwar-thirumozhi-1st-centum"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56051"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56051\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56123,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56051\/revisions\/56123"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
