Dear BhakthAs :

Today we will study the Tenth  Pasuram of ThiruppallANDu :

yennAL EmperumAn Unranakku adiyOm yenRu yezhutthuppatta
vannALE adiyOngaLadikkudil veedu peRRuynthathu kaaNN
sennALL thORRit-Thirumathuraiut-silai kunitthu Iynthalaya
painnAhat-talai pAynthavanE Unnaip-pallANDu kooruthumE

Meaning according to Dr.V.K.S.N.Raghavan
*********************************************
(The poet-Saint hints of the Svayam-PrayOjana kaimakryam
in this Paasuram ). Oh Supreme Lord of Ours ! On the very same beautiful
day , in which we have written down the treaty of becoming Your servants,
the lowly huts of these servants of Yours populated by the generations
has gained Moksham , and final redemption . May we sing hence PallANDu
in praise of You , Oh Lord , who has assumed the avatAram of KrishNa , on
a benign day , in the sacred city of MathurA , where later You broke the bow
(in Kamsas' dhanur -yaaga ) and who  pounded upon the five-headed naaga
(serpent KaaLingan ) and controlled him .

1. Sri Upanishad BhAshyakArar's Commentary
*************************************************
In this Paasuram , AzhwAr describes the KaivalyArTees
( those who were engaged in kEvala/mere svAthmAnubhavam )
reciting PallANDu for Bhagavan as transformed Bhagavath ParALs ,
who have cast aside all other prayOjanams.

The original Sanskrit Text of Upanishad BhAshyakArar's commentary
is beautiful: " Aathma DhAsyam HarE : Saamyam SvabhAvasccha sadhA
smara  ithyAdhibhi: " niscchitha: "asmath SwAmin ! nirupAdhika nithya
sEshiNa: Tava vishayE DhAsabhUthA : vayam ithi lEkhana siddhikaram
taddhinam " idham srEshta dinam ! asmin dhinE dhAsA: vayam
gruhajana parayanthatayA mOksha siddhim sameechina: " .

Oh Lord , who is the Master of all Prapancham! From many janmams
to today , we thought of ourselves as independent ones(Svatantrars)
instead of Para Tantrars and behaved accordingly. We did not learn
about aathma dhAsyam and knoweledge  that Hari is the Sarva Swamy
and felt totally independent of Him . Then we had the benefit of
the divine upadEsam of the SadAchAryan and gained knowledge about
our Svaroopam  as eternal servants to the Lord , Sriman NaarAyaNan .
We became Bhagavath ParALs and Bhaagavatha DhAsAs . That day
of gaining such knowledge is a day of matchless good fortune for us.
This transformation in us to become ananya prayOjanars blessed
many generations of our house and has redeemed us all .Therefore ,
we sing PallANDu out of gratefulness to You , Oh Lord , Who entered
the weapons storage area of Kamsan and broke a mighty bow there !
We sing PallANDu to Your heroism in jumping on top of the serpent
with five hoods by the name of KaaLingan and subduing his egotistic
behavior .

 2. Sri Periya ParakAla Muni's commentaries
**********************************************
Oh Supreme Master ! What a miracle it is to see that
we have been saved through Your incomparable mercy
from falling into the unredeemabale pit of Kaivalyam .
With us , our sons and grandsons have gained Moksham
through Your merciful intervention  . You have corrected us
from seeking Kaivalyam and taken us on the high road to
Moksham .

3. Thirukkudanthai Desikan's Commentaries
**********************************************
Here , former KaivalyArthees changed through Bhagavath
PrabhAvam their futile pursuits and were on their way to
Moksham .They are performing PallANDu to the Lord for
His intervention and blessing the entire generation with
Moksha Sukham .

 4. Thirukkudanthai Sri RanganAtha Swamy's commentary
 ************************************************************
As KaivalyArthees , We were filled with ahankAram and sought
consequently the Kshudra ( lowly ) PurushArTam of Kaivalyam.
Then we fell at Your sacred feet and during that aasrayaNa vELai
( Time of seeking Your protection ) , You uplifted not only us ,
but many generations following us. After becoming ananya
prayOjanars , we perform MangaLASaasanam for You in gratefulness .
This is is our desired kruthyam (seyya vENDuvathu).

Thus ends the 10th Paasuram , which celebrates the performance of
MangaLAsAsanam for the Lord by the chastised the former Kaivalya Parars ,
who had joined AzhwAr's ghOshti as ananya prayOjanars .
