Dear Shri sadagopan swAmi ,
It is extremely satisfying to receive mails from readers, especially from learned people like you. It not a learning process for me and gives me much required sharp understanding and revision. This apart, these forum-s provide me an opportunity to be in touch with vyAkyAnam-s and AchAryargaL similar to dhivya dhEsam-s providing opportunity to keep myself in touch with AzhwargaL-mUlam-text regularly.
To put in a nutshell my hunger for text is satisfied at the footsteps of the Lord and my taste for works by AchAryAs is amply provided by these forum-s. For instance, I was at guru- pushya brahmOtsavam in thiruch-chErai for the final two days where we had an opportunity  to recall thiru-mozhi in just 3 long sessions.
 
Hence, the thanks should be from my side.
Your mail is a booster tonic to me which propels for further involvement and regular write-ups.
 
As far as archiving is concerned/e-book, Shri TCA Venkatesan has kindly consented to help in this regard.
 
Regarding tamil font, I always felt that writing tamil script in english can at best be a support but can never be a substitute for the original text. Will murasu anjal help in this regard? The pre=-requisite is that all the recipients of the mail should also have murasu anjal. Murasu anjal is a simple to use font and english typing knowledge is more than enough.
What is your suggestion?
 
Regards and thanks once again.
 
Yours,
rAmAnuja dhAsan

Dear SrIman Padmanabhan:
 
AchArya Hrudhayam is a very difficult SrI Sookthi
to understand and enjoy unless it is interpreted
with PoorvAchArya Commentaries .
 
You are doing a great service to the Vaishnavite community
by taking the time and effort day after day to bring rasikAs  of
Swamy  NammAzhwAr"s ThiruvAimozhi  closer to the beauty
and depth of meaning of the Paasurams as  seen by the great
AchAryan , who blessed us with AchArya Hrudhayam.
 
Please accept all of our grateful thanks.
 
I have two suggestions to archive these outstanding
postings , which have been prepared with great effort:
 
(1) Short and long term: Can you please add Tamil fonts
as well to the passages in front of the English transcriptions ?
That would  add more enjoyment .
 
2) Please consider creating a e-book , which can be printed out
for the enjoyment of all .
 
Please continue your most appreciated efforts,
V.Sadagopan

AchArya Hrdhayam -sUthram 223
The Fifth Ten
The Love for the Lord
"pEAr amar pin ninRu kazhiya migu yAneAyenna vAithu ARRAgillAdhu nErAi meliya vUdu pukku vaLara..."
 
Summary:  It was seen in the preceding posting that the Lord is the reason for increasing the increasing yearning for Him, the reason for the Love and Affection towards Him. The creation of such Love, the emancipation of such love, the evolution of such love, the impact of the Love on AzhwAr is further explained. 
 
The great love-pEaramar kAdhalemerges from the Lord's everlasting beautiful form. This Love settles down in the mind of AzhwAr and creates restlessness.  Does it stop with that? The friends around AzhwAr comments on this love. The love manifests itself into thriving oneself by acting like the Lord- I created this whole world, I am the ultimate in learning, I am the ultimate in what one sees, I am the pancha-bhUdham, the actions, the cause-effects, the heaven, hell etc.  This reflcts that AzhwAr cannot live without the Almighty even for a second. Even the physique of AzhwAr melts on thinking of sweetness of the Lord Almighty. Is this state of affair intermittent for AzhwAr? No this is an experience day in and day out for AzhwAr.
The auspicious qualities and deeds of the Lord pierces into the mind of AzhwAr and melts him time and again. That is the nature of love towards the lord-great love-pEr amar kAdhal.
.
 
pAsuram-s:
 
"pEar amar kAdhal kadal puraiya viLaivitha"--thiru voi mozhi 5-3-4----> TheGreat Love towards the Lord is created by the Lord Himself.
"pin ninRa kAdhal nOi nenjam peridhu adumAl" --thiru voi mozhi 5-4-6--> The Love becomes a disease as it pains the mind -makes it restless.
"kazhiya mikkadhOre kAdhgalaL ivaL" -thiru voi mozhi 5-5-10--> The friends around AzhwAr comment on AzhwAr's Love.
"kadal gnAlam seidhEnum yAnEa ennum"---> thiru voi mozhi 5-6-- all the elven pAsuram-s of this thiru voi mozhi
reflect AzhwAr's mindset. AzhwAr is able to survive by acting like the Lord. AzhwAr says that " I created the world.I am the world. I am the cause effects. I am the Learning. I destroyed. I am the deities , the muni-s and so on. These pAsuram-s reflect that AzhwAr is not able to sustain himself by merely thinking about the Lord but need more by acting like the Lord.
"Agilum ini vunnai vittonRum ARRa kiRkinRilEan" --thiru voi mozhi 5-7-1--> " I am not able to be my self without being with you" is AzhwAr's predicament.
"ArA amudhEA adiyEAn vudalam nin pAl anbAyEa nErAi alaindhu karaiya " --thiru voi mozhi 5-8-1--> AzhwAr's physique melts on contemplating the sweetness of the Lord.
"vaigalum vinayEan meliya"--thiru voi mozhi 5-9-1--> This effect of Love is day in and day out for AzhwAr and not just intermittent.
"niRandhan vUdu pukku enadhu Aviyai ninRu ninRu vurukki vuNginRa"--thiru voi mozhi 5-10--> This thiru voi mozhi talks of deeds and qualities of the Lord Almighty which pierces into the mind of AzhwAr and torments.
 
Thus, the nature of Love and Affection towards the Lord  is elaborated.
