Dear Sri vaishNava perunthagaiyeer
When a person can be called a decent man?
You, all, will react to this question saying
 when he exhibits good and pleasing manners, etiquette etc, when he=
is being approached by an unknown person like you and me,
 when he talks in simple language in courteous manner to us when
some questions are put to him by us when we approach him,
 when he is neatly dressed,
 when he appears to be well educated,
 when he is gentle in his actions
But can a person be called a decent man for he is looking at one
girl? That too when she describes
 I am being looked at by him curiously,
 he also looks at my thighs,
 he also looks at my breasts, the young and tender ones which I
carry".
Perhaps, if it is present days or modern times, such a person will be
immediately booked for damaging the modesty of a young women, or,
for "eve teasing" under Cr PC sections. Immediately on the other side
a big commotion would set in by women's associations and
organisations.
But the same girl, who first said he looks at me, as stated above,
certifies him as he is very decent ? very civilized, says "he is
naagarikar". Also adds he is beautiful and very young, for he also
entered my house and then only does all these.
Perhaps she also wants that she should be looked at like that. The
only thing she is afraid of is "what my mother will think when she
sees this person looking at me and my body parts?"
Dear bhakthaas, you all now wonder what this man wants to write that
too in serious lists like srirangasri et al, a cinema scene? May be ?
if filmed it will be quite entertaining in its real sense. Before
accusing me read on.
Now a doubt comes whether what she says is false [as a decent man ?
naagarigar] or the maintenance that she is afraid of her mother is
false, for she goes on to describe how beautiful he is. If she is
afraid of mother why should she go on and on to describe him.
For this is all stated by thirumangai aazhvaar in his paasurams. The
person looking at the girl is none other than my krishNa, the girl
looked at is none else than the aazhvaar.
Now read more -
"thOzhee, ennaiyum nOkki en algulum nOkki
Enthu iLam kongaiyum nOkkuginRaar
annai en nOkkum enR anjuginREn"
"nambar nam illam pugundhu ninRaar, naagarigar, peridhum iLaiyar".
The reference is 9-2 ?1 and 4 of the thirunaagai aazhvaar paasurams
in his periya thirumozhi.
Dear bhakthaas, see here, is the `certificate' for that decent man.
Also he is nambar ? nam anbar ? our dear man ? or a royal `we' ? he
is my `man'.
Now I understand why he is described such ? for I also love him ? so
he becomes decent in spite of looking at differently in different
places of my body ? he is very young one also ? so may be the
paarvai ? the looking is nishkalangam ? with no blemishes.
Ok, let him see me in whatever way he wants or wherever he wants. No
inhibitions on my part in exposing myself to himfor he is nambar.
For that also gives me a chance to see him more and describe him. I
will not stop describing him. So goes on ? as "achchO oruvar
azhagiyavaa" ? oh, a beautiful person.
Dear bhakthaas, already we saw his beauty is the medicine for all
types of ills for us - so let us enjoy more of his beauty.
pon ivar mEni ? gold has become his body
min maragadhaththin pongu iLam jOthi agalaththu aaram - the haaram ?
the ornament hanging in the chest has a green gem ? maragatham ?
dazzles in light green shine
min ivar vaayil nal vEdhamOdhum ? that min ? glittering can also be
added here - glittering mouth utters the different vEdhaas - vEdham
Odhum or vEdham mOdhum ? both are apt ? these vEdhaas desire to go
into his mouth and come out as uttered by him ? so they rush to go in
and come out dashing against each other ? so vEdham mOdhum vaai.
senchudar aazhiyum sangum Endhi ? the hands carry the conch and the
radiant wheel
kaiyana aazhiyum sangum Endhi ? meaning same as above
paadaga melladiyaar vaNanga ? paadagam named jewel is in the soft
lotus petal feet which are being worshipped by his devotees. Also
melladiyaar - menmaiyaana bhakthaas ? once transformed into his
bhakthaas they become soft in nature ? so also melladiyaar - they
worship those feet which adorns the paadagam ? an ornament like that
kazhal. [aaNdaaL also refers this paadagam ? "soodagamE thOL vaLaiyE
thOdE sevip poovE paadagamE enRu anaiya palkalanum" in
her "koodaarai" paasuram]
panmaNi muththodu ilangu jOthi aadagam pooNdu oru naangu thOLum ? the
four shoulders having aadagam named jewel ? [thOL vaLai for aaNdaaL]
in all 4 shoulder parts, several gems and pearls glitter in these
jewels.
now comes the real description ? iv vaiyagam ellaam thaayina naayagar
aavar ? he is the mother for all this world and galaxies, also the
head or father of all clan ? [see the gender goes put ? whether male
or female ? for he is the mother, when said as father he then is
male ? mother means female ? what exactly he is? Both combined or
neither ? [now comes the description by way of a rescue -
nammaazhvaar paasuram ? aaNum allan peNNum allan, aliyum allan]
vambavizhum thuzhaai maalai thOL mEl ? the shoulders also carries the
vaijayanthee garlands ? the thuLasee garlands.
sem pavaLam ivar vaayin vaNNam ? the red coral is the colour of his
mouth.
ivaradhu uruvam sollil am pavaLaththiraLEyum oppar ? just to describe
his body ? then can call as a beautiful coral reef ? [please note ?
first it is gold hue ? yellow, now coral red]
see next ? ivar vaNNam eNNil maa kadal pOnRu uLar ? just to think of
his colour - he is like the big ocean ? blue ocean ? [colour changed
from gold yellow to red to blue]
once more another colour ? anjana maamalaiyEyum oppar ? he is also
like the black hill of collerium ?kaajal black- the black substance
applied to eyes to enhance beauty of the eyes.
aNikezhu thaamaraiyanna kaNNum angaiyum pankayam ? the eyes and the
palms are lotus
How he came ? anjiraip puLLUm onRu Eri vandhaar ? he came on a bird
as his transport means.
Who is this ? maal irum Olai maNaaLar- the sundharan who resids in
thirumaalirum sOlai,
Or is it neermalaiyaar ? that person living in thiruneermalai ? near
chennai-
Finally see the words- maNdi Or aalilaip paLLi koLLum maayar ?
sleeping in a single leaf of the banyan tree covering the full leaf,
such a magician ? he ate the whole world but lies in a small banyan
leaf ? is it not magic?
? annamum kEzhalum meenumaaya aadhiyai naagai azhagiyaarai -
that old stuff which became the swan, the boar, and the fish ? that
beautiful lady who is in naagai ? the gender now in confusion ? is it
or appears so ? yes - once immersed into his beauty ? all senses
goes. So rules do not apply there ? so first a male ? next azhagiyaar-
a female beauty- that is why even if he sees the breasts or thighs ?
it is welcome.
You can decide whether it is ok if he looks at you like described
here ? is it decency? Or want to feel shy ? or all gone when he
looks at.
Oh, what if somebody mocks at ? for his kataaksham is more worth than
all these fragile words of common folks. So can I get that decent
man's look on me - kidaikkumaa andha decent nOkku on my chest, achO
oru azhagiyavaa ? krishNa krishNa the beauty.
