LOGIC BEHIND THE NUMBERS
 
We observe in sevaral pAsurams AzhwArs talking in final pAsurams of tens, mentioning "five pulus five" or "nine plus one'
 
 
In this particular thiru-mozhi thriumangai AzhwAr mentions :
 
"...aindhinodu mUnRum onRinoDu onRum..." 3-10-10;
 
These ten pAsurams are classified as four groups.
 
one group consisiting of five pAsuramsl; The next three pAsurams forming a category,. The next class containing one and the final one.
 
What is the logic behind these numbers.
 
The pAsuram-s 2,3,7, 8 and 9 talk about Lord krshNA and these are clubbed as one group of 5.
 
The fourth, fifth and sixth pAsuram-s talk about narasimha,vAmana and rAmAvathAram form the group of 3.
 
The first pAsuram talks of archAvathAram is a category and the final pAsuram being pHala sruthi forming the final one.
