We have learnt that nAthamunigaL was an expert in yOga SAsthram. uyyakkoNdAr and kurugaik kAvalappan were important Sishyas of nAthamunigaL. When nAthamunigaL wanted to teach yOga SAsthram to his Sishyas, uyyakkoNdAr replied, \u201c<em>piNam kidakka maNam puNarvAr undO<\/em>?\u201d This means &#8211; How is it suitable to talk about auspicious things like marriage in a house where there is death?\u201d uyyakkondAr asked, \u201cWhen the people in this samsAram are suffering, how can I alone learn yOga SAsthram and enjoy emperumAn through that?\u201d. He vowed, \u201cI will learn with excellence all the nAlAyira dhivya prabandha pAsurams and teach those to the people in this world so that they can be liberated from their suffering\u201d.
