Dear BhakthAs :

Today we will study the Twelfth & Final Pasuram of ThiruppallANDu :

PallANDenRu Pavitthiranaip-ParamEttiyai Saarngamennum
   villANDAnaRannai VilliputthUr Vittuchittham virumpiya soll
nallANDenRu navinRuraippAr NamO NaarAyaNAyavenRu
   PallANDum ParamAthmanai SoozhnthEtthuvAr PallANDE

 Meaning according to Dr.V.K.S.N.Raghavan
*********************************************
Phala Sruthi (Fruits ) of singing this decad , PallANDu is presented here.

This hymn of PallANDu is composed by VishNuchittaa( Or PeriyAzhwAr)
of SrivilliputthUr . He has sung in praise of the Lord , Pavitthiran
( the most sacred God) and ParamEshti ( the Supreme Being and
the Over-Lord , dwelling in Parama Padham or Sri Vaikuntam ) .
VishNuchitthA praises Him , " May You be prosperous Forever ".
Those who recite this hymn , considering that their coming across
this hymn , is indeed a good and auspicious year (hour) and also
chanting "Namo NaarAyaNAya ", They  will gain entry into Moksha and
sing in praise of the Supreme Being " PallANDu " there  living within His
close quarters  and surrounding Him .

1. Sri Upanishad BhAshyakArar's Commentary
*************************************************
Sri RangarAmAnuja Muni describes the AzhwAr's MangaLASAsanam
this way : " Paavana-tamam ParamEshtinam Saarnga naama dhanur-
dharam , Swaaminam  , SrInavyadhanva puravAsinA SrI VishNuchitthEna
ithyAdhi roopENa saanurAgam krutham kaimakrya roopam yEnam
MangaLAsAsana Prabhandham asmAkam sameecheenOyam vathsara ithi ".

AnusandhAnA: anushtithOpaayascchEth  prapatthim  anushtAya ,
anushithOpaayaasccha bhOgyathayA yaavath sarIreea paatham
dhvayam anusandhatha: dEhapAthAnanatharam cha  ParamAthmAnam
paravruthyAvastithaa: SarvAn kaalAn (PallANDu ) gaaTAm anusandheeran ,
Jithantha ithivath , "yEthath SaamagAyannAstE " ithi hi SrUyathE " .

Here AzhwAr describes the effect of such MangaLAsAsanam and
the fruits thereof . The Lord who is being hailed with long life is by 
nature
Parisuddhan and eternal ; He is established in His divine abode and handles
effectively the powerful bow known as Saarngam. This PallANDu
prabhandham was composed by PeriyAzhwAr of Pandyan Kingdom's
city , SrI VilliputthUr with prEmai and originated in the form of
Service to Him ( Bhagavath Kaimkarya Roopam ) .  Those who recite
this PallANDu state that it is their BhAgyam . Those reciting
PallANDu prabhandham will be blessed if they have not completed
their Prapatthi anushtAnam with soubhAgyams on this earth .
Those reciters , who have observed Prapatthi will have special
phalans . They will spend their days here with parama BhOgya
chinthai and at the end of their life on earth will join the eternally
liberated souls in Sri Vaikuntam as MukthAs and will sing PallANDu
to the Lord at Parama Padham and perform MangaLAsAsanam like
" Jitham tE " and " yEthath SaamagAyannAstE " as stated by
the Upanishads .

2. Sri Periya ParakAla Muni's commentaries
**********************************************
In this paasuram , AzhwAr lets us know of the Phalans
of learning the meanings of ThiruppallANDu from
a Sadaachaaryan and teaching it to others .

He points out that one has to sing PallANDu to the Lord
with PrEmai , Bhakthi and concern ( Parivu). Sriman NaarAyaNan
is introduced to us in this context as (1) Pavithran (2) Bhava Vidhvamsakan
(3) ParamEshti (4) Padha PrApaakan and (5) VirOdhi Nivarthakan .
Pavithran denotes His Supreme sacrdness . Bhava Vidhvamsakan
stands for His power to destroy SamsAric ills . ParamEshti reminds us
of His status as SrI Vaikunta NAthan . Padha Praapakan tells us
that He is the goal and as the One who grants us Moksham
to get us the boon of eternal kaimakryam at His Parama Padham .

3. Thirukkudanthai Desikan's Commentaries
**********************************************
After describing the modes of Jn~Anis , KaivalyArthees
and IswaryArthees joining AzhwAr's ghOshti to sing
PallANDu , AzhwAr describes the PrabhAvam (Glories )
of singing ThiruppallANDu to the Lord for the benefit of
Bhagvath anAsraya SamsAris ( Those struggling in
the ocean of SamsAram and do not think of the Lord as
their Protector) . AzhwAr reminds them that the Lord is
Svatha: Parisuddhan ( Intrinsically Pure & sacred ) and
as the Ubhaya VibhUthi Naathan with permanent residence
in Sri Vaikuntam . AzhwAr advises them to seek the Lord
since He is BhOgya BhOgOpakaraNa BhOga SthAna
Samruddhan ( He is the abode of all enjoyable vasthus
and Tatthvams , the upAyams to those BhOgams and
the abode to enjoy them ).

AzhwAr is VishNu Chittar  , who has the Lord always on
his chittham (mind) . This PallANDu to the Lord was created
by the AzhwAr for the upliftment of the word ( Loka UjjeevanArTam).

" NallANDenRu NavinRuraippAr" : The day of reciting PallANDu
is NallANDu ( Subha dinam , Subha Varsham ). Naviluvathu
is to chant without interruption after conquering ahamkAram
and MamakArams . PallANDu stands for multiples of years
( as long as Kaala Tathvam exists). To gain the Phalan of
enjoying the Lord at the Parama Padham , where there is
no interplay of Kaala Tathvam , one has to recite the PallANDU
on this earth , where there is demarcation by time.

4. Thirukkudanthai Sri RanganAtha Swamy's commentary
************************************************************
Out of his compassion as an AchAryan , AzhwAr reminds
the SamsAris that they are also MangaLAsAsana arhars
( qualified  to perform MangaLAsAsanam to the Lord) .
Lord is Pavithran ( Parama Suddhan) and the touch of
an asuddha object by Suddha satthva vasthu will remove
the asuddham and create paavanathvam (Sva sambhandhatthAlE
asuddharum Suddhar aavAr). That is the power of the Parama
Paavaana BhagavAn .

Thus ends the 12th Paasuram , which describes the phalans
from the performance of MangaLAsAsanam for the Lord .
AzhwAr reminds the SamsAris that the Lord  has the power to tranform
even a nithya SamsAri and make him qualified to join His Nithya Soori
GhOshti. He reminds the ChEthanams that they have the  yogyathai
to perform MangaLAsAsanam and encourages them to engage in
such MangaLAsAsanam and reap the fruits of such activity .
