--------------  
TIRUVIRUTTAM  
And 
THE AUSPICIOUS QUALITIES OF THE LORD (18)
----- 

86. The Lord is not only great in gracing even those
who are considered as His equal, but also He is easily
submissive to His devotees. 

 ?adaikkalatthu Ongku kamalatthalar   ayan 
chenniyennum 
  mudaikkalatthu ooN mun aranukku neekkiyai, Azhi
cangkam
  padaikkalm Enthiyai, veNNaikku anRu Acchi 
vanthAmbukaLal
  pudaikka  alanthAnai, emmAnai, en chollip
pulambuvanE??

(What can say about my Lord, Who once cleared Shiva of
the curse of begging for food in the skull of Brahma?s
head, Who carries the weapons of discus and conch in
hands, Who appeared pathetic when He was bound in
strong ropes by Yashoda, the cowherd-woman, for
stealing butter?)

87. He is loved by SrI who is the cause for His grace.

            ?ThirumAl?

(The Lord is affectionate to SrI.)

88. He appears to devotees along with His Consort.

 ?thirumAl uruvokkum mEru, ammEruvil cenchudarOn
 thirumAl thirukkait thirucchkkaram okkum, annakaNdum
 thirumAl uruvOdu avanchinnamE pithaRRA niRpathOr
 thirumAl thalaikkonda nangkatku enkE varum
theevinaiyE??

(The Meru mountain is similar to the Consort of SrI.
The reddish bright Sun near the Meru mountain is
similar to the Discus held in the hand by the Lord.
When I have acquired such a unique devotion for Him as
to start blurting His names and His symbols, on merely
looking at similar objects, how would I commit sin
that may lead to separation from Him?)

89. Just because of His association with Sri, the Lord
removes the sins of His devotees and blesses them with
the pleasure of serving Him. 

 ?theevinaikku Arum nanjai,  nalvinaikku 
amudatthinai,
  poovinai mEviya  dEvi  maNALanai,  punmai eLkAthu
  Avinai mEikkum vallAyanai,  anRulaku  eeradiyAl 
  thAvina  eRRai,  emmAnai,  ennjnAnRu  thalaip
peivanE? ?

(When will I attain my Lord, Who is the effective
poison to the sins of His devotees, Who is the nectar
for their virtuous acts, Who is the Consort of SrI who
stays in the lotus, Who was once a shepherd
efficiently grazing the cows without despising it as a
mean job, Who had long ago, proudly measured all the
worlds in just two steps?)


90. He adds greatness to the devotees? bodies that are
adorned with His feet. 

 ?thalaippeithi  yAnun thiruvadi choodum thakaimiyinAl

  nilaippeitha  Akkaikku  nORRa  immAyam?       

(What mysterious act have I done to get this body
which proudly carries Your lotus feet on it?)
