SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama: Dearest all, Kulasekara AzhwAr longs to adorn his head with the mud lying underneath the feet of bhAgawathas. AzhwArs, Acharyas and the commentators of the Dhivya prabandhams extol the bhAgawatha kankarya as an essential requirement and the greatest virtue of a srivaishnava. The author of the eedu vyakhyanam, regards the kainkaryam to His devotees as central to the behaviour of Srivaishnavas. Now let us enjoy the verse: ERadarththathum Enamaayn^ilam keendathummunni raamanaay maaRatar_ththathum maNNaLanthathum sollippaadivaN ponnippE raaRupOlvarum kaNNan^eer_koNda rangan_kOyil thirumuRRam sERuseythoNdar sEvatissezhuNY sERensennik kaNivanE 2.3 The Lord had victoriously killed seven bulls for the hand of Nappinnai PiraaTTi; He had lifted the huge bhUmi on His horn during Sri Varaaha avathAram (Boar) for the sake of Bhoomi PiraaTTi to save her from deep troubled waters; Took birth as Rama, separated from Sita and killed the enemy Ravana, who had abducted the Jagan matha, Sita piraaTTi; grew so tall and huge as Trivikraman to measure the Universe and got back the worlds that were taken away by Mahaa bhali for the sake of Devendran; Such wonderful and divine deeds of the Lord are reminisced, remembered and are sung joyously and devotedly by these bhAgawathas of Srirangam; the tears of love and joy, tears of emotions from the eyes of these bhAgawathas flow like the river Cauveri in the corridors of Srirangam, where the Lord Sriranganathan is reclining and the praakaarams (corridors) are now filled with the sERu (dust from their feet + waters of tears from the eyes of bhAgawathas). I would like to adorn my head with this sERu (muddy water mixture) like ThirumaN?
