The goal should match your nature”, AzhwAr<\/a> replies “It does not matter who I am; what matters is that, whoever I am, I should exist for his sake only”.<\/p>\n Highlights from nampiLLai<\/a>‘s introduction as documented by vadakkuth thiruvIdhip piLLai<\/a> Fifth pAsuram. AzhwAr<\/a> first desired for service through mind, speech and body and said “You should eliminate everything that is for “me” and simply engage my these three faculties (mind, speech and body) for your pleasure alone”; emperumAn<\/a> thinks “this kind of dealings cannot be had with samsAris (worldly people); so let us investigate what AzhwAr thinks of himself while praying for this” and asked “Who are you desiring this favour from me?” AzhwAr replied “Some say ‘dhEham (body) is the same as AthmA<\/a> (soul)’; others say ‘since without indhriyams (senses), the body cannot do anything, the senses are the soul’; few others say ‘even those senses cannot grasp and understand the objects when not supported by manas (mind), so mind is the soul’; few others say ‘even the mind works only with the support of prANas (vital airs – prANa, apAna etc), so vital air is the soul’; few others say even if all are present, unless adhyavasAyam (firm knowledge) is there, there is no use; so, budhdhi (intellect) is the soul’; finally, some say ‘some thing is beyond all of these, having gyAnam as an attribute and being made of gyAnam – this is AthmA (soul)'”\u00a0AzhwAr<\/a> says “there is no specific binding for me in any of these; whoever I am, I want to be an object which exists purely for your sake”. This is like ALavandhAr<\/a> saying in sthOthra rathnam 52 “vapurAdhisu yOpi kOpi vA …<\/em>” (Let me be anything starting with body).<\/p>\n siRappil vIdu suvarkka naragam<\/em>![\"dasavatara-3\"](\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/dasavatara-3.jpg\"){kind=avatar}
