emperumAn showed his mercy on that elephant; he blessed vibhIshaNAzhwAn who was the younger brother of rAvaNa, the kingdom of lankA which was surrounded by ocean with tides; previously, he killed the mystical deer with his big bow; let us worship thirukkaNNapuram which is the abode of such emperumAn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highlights from vyAkyAnam (Commentary)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ilai &#8230;

only the crocodile was acting; due to that it was shivering and became weak; at that time, bhagavAn came and helped the elephant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>alai nIr &#8230; <\/strong>&#8211; Though rAvaNa&#8217;s enmity would affect his brother too, bhagavAn, without seeing that aspect, gave rAvaNa&#8217;s younger brother, the lankA kingdom; even before that, he killed the mystical deer, which was arranged by as a result of rAvaNa&#8217;s enmity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the next article we will enjoy the next pAsuram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">adiyen sarathy ramanuja dasan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">archived in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/\">https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">pramEyam (goal) \u2013&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/koyil.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/koyil.org<\/a><br>pramANam (scriptures) \u2013&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/granthams.koyil.org\/\">http:\/\/granthams.koyil.org<\/a><br>pramAthA (preceptors) \u2013&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org\/\">http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org<\/a><br>SrIvaishNava education\/kids portal \u2013&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pillai.koyil.org\/\">http:\/\/pillai.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SrI:&nbsp;
