AchArya Hrdhayam 211
contd.
The nature of the Lord - iRai nilai -
and the soul- vuyir nilai - were discussed in the earlier postings. In this
posting the four padhigam-s dealing with hassles or virOdhi swarupam/nature of
the obstacles that may occur in the path of salvation is
discussed.
The four padhigam-s are a. vEdu b.
sonnAl c. oru and d. koNda.
a. vEdu: "vEdu min muRRavum"
thiru voi mozhi 1-2 preaches that ego and the egotist feelings should be
removed from oneself.
b. sonnAl:" sonnAl virOdham
idhu" thiru voi mozhi 3-8 teaches that subservience should be dedicated
only to HIm and not to those who do not deserve.
c. oru: " oru nAyakamAi' thiru voi
mozhi 4-1 discusses the temporary nature of materialistic aspects and the Lord's
divine feet is the permanent one is emphasised.
d. koNda" koNda peNdir, makkaL,
vuRRAR" thiru voi mozhi 9-1 highlights that relatives and friends are not to be
desired and explains that with several instances. Only the Lord is the relative
of all kind is underlined.
Thus, egoism/egotism (in vEdumin muRRavum),
subservience to others ( in sonnAl virOdham), temporary nature of material
aspects ( in oru nAyakamAi) and relatives and friends are not actually to be
considered so( in koNda peNdir) are categorically listed out as the obstacles
and their nature - virOdhi swarUpam.
