THIRUPPAVAI
SWAPADHESAM
SREMATH PARAMAHAMSA VANAMAMALAI JEEYAR Continuing on the swApadhEsam it was seen that like
minded souls were sought as company from 6th to 15th pAsuram of
thiruppAvai.
The sixth pAsuram : In
this pAsuram a devotee who is new to the krishNAnubhavam is invited to the
ghOshti.
(puLLum silambina
kAN)
It is seen that those who are already
in this field, try to make other sreVaishNavites also so experienced, without
any expectation.
They feel that it is their duty. isnt
this a srEvaishNavite trait?
The seventh pAsuram:
A soul who is immersed in the thoughts of krishNAnubhavam is called for
such an exprience. The spirit here is that the experience should be mutual and
hence, the like minded souls should also be included in ones
fold.( kEchu
kEchu)
The Eighth pAsuram: A
devotee who is considered by Lord krishNA as enjoyable is sought after. It is
thus observed that such devotees are not to be segregated but in
fact the worship itself should be at their behest.(kEzh
vAnam)
The Ninth pAsuram: Here a
devotee is patiently waiting for the Lord's arrival without any restlessness.
However, the other class who are clutched by zest to meet Him, seek her company.
It is thus stressed here that those who are not able to be patient -since,
the end attainable makes them so- to seek those who are so tolerant and patient
call them. Isnt this a natural srEvaishNavic characteristic? ( thUmaNi
mAdathu)
The Tenth pAsuram: Here, a
devotee who is sought by the Lord in contrast to devotees seeking the Lord,is
invited to the ghOshti. Therefore, it is to be understood that even those
devotee who are in fact sought by the Lord are not to be envied but to be
eagerly called into our fold. (nORRuch chuvarkam)
