You Are My
Friend
thOzhan
nE!enakku
One would always be liked to be termed as
being closed to a prominent/popular/elevated persons. This is seen in the
World.
How will it be if the Highest person
declares/proclaims that He is the friend of an ordinary human being. That will
be the height of saulabhyam. We can never see this in the contemporary world
among the mortals. The spirit of the power/seat is replaced by the attraction and goes to one's head
and we seldom see such mahAn-s.
Sri chakravarthith thiru-magan did not
spurn sri guhap-perumAL despite his minus
points.
What are these?
yEAzhai- was -ignorant/submerged in the mundane
world-yEAzhai.
yEAdhalan-->He did not ignore him though he had no nexus
in any way whatsover with the Lord. The basic duty of a kshathriyA was being
saviour. On the contrary, the primary role of a vEdan is killing.
yEAdhalan.
kEzh
magan--> Low birth.
sri rAmA blessed
Him.
He introduced sri sEthA pirATTi as His
thOzhi.
His brother as sri guHA's
brother.
At this stage He should have told that He
was His friend - I am your friend. But He did not stop at
that:
With full pleasure perumAL spelt
out
"thOzhan nE enakku !
"
"Oh! you are my friend" were
the divine words.
that is why it is mentioned categorically
in srEvachana bhUshaNam
"sRe guhap
perumALukku thEmai thAnEa nanmai Aithu" 145
First sri rAmA overlooked the negatives;
Next He introduced pirATTi as guhA's thOzhi; Thereafter, declares that sri
guhA's brother iLaya-perumAL is His brother and did He stop at that: Proclaims
that sri guhA is His friend-with full of happiness and
joy.
That is height of
saulabyam.
This height of saulabyam is excellently
narrated in the first pAsuram
'YEAzhai, yEadhalan, kEzh-magan -ennAdhu
irangi, maRRAvarkku innaruL surandhu,
mAzhai mAn mada nOkki vun
thOzhi, vumbi embi, enRu ozhindhilai,
vugandhu thOzhan nE!
enakku, enRa soRkaL vandhida.." 5-8-1;
Such Divine words from the
Supreme
"thOzhan nE!
enakku'
