Good Bad and Bad Good

Is there a good in bad and bad in good. Yes. As per AzhwAr;s pAsuram-s there 
are bad apples in good lot and good apple in bad lot.

An instance; Sri vibhEshanAzhwAn and Sri PrahlAdhan are born in the demon clan. 
However, they are pious souls. that is good frombad.

This is what Sri ANDAL mentions pollA arakkan ( ThiruppAvai 13) as the 
aformentioned two are good souls.

The same analogy is drawn in vEdhic treatise. Generally, the vEdham-s and 
upanishads are good lot. However, the treatises dealing with other deities pure 
rituals and sacrifieces are not indeed pure and good. they are bad out of good 
lot.

This is what comes up when Sri ANDAL mentions 'vAi nallAr nalla maRAi ODhi 
manthirathAl' nAchiyAr Thriumzohi 6-7;

Sir Nam AzhwAr in his magnum opus ThiruvAimzohi 'nal vEdathu oli' 7-3-4;

Here, in the Thirumozhi dedicated for ThirunAgai Sri Thirumangai mannan 'ivaL 
vAyil nal vEdham vOAdhum vEAdhiyar'9-2-1; Para-kAla nAyaki identifies the 
Sparkling entity as the one who has recited the good vEdhic works.

The VyakyAnam mentions categorically 'purusha sUkthAdhigaLaip pOlEa '.The 
Vedhci portion exclusively dedciated to EmperumAn.

Apparently even the vedhic works do have unwanted portions unlike aruLich 
cheyal where it is EmeprumAn all the way.
