All the four mentioned above are
prefixed by "our" -nam which is due to their respective greatness and this is
bestowed by those with love and affection.
nam-piLLai is placed in this exclusive,
elite class. Does it not show his greatness?
A few glimpses into his
commentary:
A pAsuram in sixth
ten:
" pEdudai nAn muganai
padaithAnukku,
mAdu mannaRku dhUthu sel nambikku....."
6-6-4
When describing the Lord AzhwAr
mentions as - The Lord who has created the majestic
brahmA,
The Lord who went as a messenger for
those who possess the country.
The commentator could well have
commented on these lines and proceded.
swAmi nam-piLLai meticulously explains
1. Why " pEdu"
is prefixed to nAn muganai?
chadurtha bhuvanangaLaiyum padaikka
srustikka valla chadhur mugan-Edu
The power to create the four worlds is
the "pEdu" -majestic-for brahmA.
2. "nAdudai
mannaRku" - The Lord went as an ambassador for those who possess the
kingdom.
Actually, they did not have the
kingdom. dhuryOdhanA is in possession of the kingdom. Then why come AzhwAr
mentions as 'nAdudai mannaRku" ?.
Edu: "bhagwadh apiprAyathAlE
avargaLai nAdudai mannar engiRAr kANum"
Though, the pANdavAs do not possess
anything, as per the Lord' esteemed opinion, they possess the kingdom. Hence,
the prefix 'nAdudai"
