Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy AzhwArs wonderful verses on
Thiruvenkatamudiayaan. 

BhakthAmrutham viswa janAnumodhanam 
sarvArthatham Sri Satakopa Vaangmayam 
sahasra SaakOpanishadh samAgamam
namAmyaham Draavida Vedha Saagaram 

Meaning ): adiyEn salutes the ocean of Tamizh Vedam ,
which is of the form of Sri SaThakOpan's vaak
(speech/aruLiccheyalkaL). These are linked to the
thousand upanishads and includes in them all the deep
meanings (Taathparyams)of Tatthva-Hitha-PurushArthams
and artha Panchakam. They are nectar to the minds of
the devotees of Sriman NaarAyaNan and they enjoy it
with relish as aparyAthAmrutham [insatiable amirtham].

Today?s ThiruvEnkatam verse is: NammAzhwAr?s
Thiruvaaymozhi 3.3.2 

enthai thanthai thanthai thanthaikkum
munthai, vaanavar vaanavar kOnodum,
sinthupoo makizum thiruvENG kadatthu,
antha milpugazk kaarezil aNNalE.        3.3.2

2.  ThiruvEnkadamudaiyaan is the Most Grandest Swami
and is the father of my father?s all
forefathers?.(when counted to all my past
generations); The richest wealth of my kulam is He,
who is of blue hued 
cloudy colour.  NitysUris[Anantha, Garuda,Vishvaksenar
et al are paying their obeisance to
ThiruvEnkatamudaiyaan by offering flowers at His Feet.

Traidtions record that when Ramanuja was narrating or
reciting this vrese, he had tears rolling down his
cheeks and disciplies wondered at the anubhavam of
Sribhashyakarar. When enquired, Swami lamented that
the flowers at Thirumala are scattered on the ground
being wasted ? sindhoo poo? 

Ananthan PiLLai ?one of his dicplines immediatelt got
Acharyan ThiruvULLam and wished to perform nandhavana
kaimkaryam at Thirumala and offer flower garlands to
Thirumalai Srinivasan. He was called by EmperumAnAr as
AaaN PiLLai. Thus, Anandaanpillai being the title
given by Emperumanar to his disciple Thirumalai
Ananthazhwan when he spontaneously volunteered to take
up kainkaryam in Tirumalai.

Though nammAzhwAr acknowledges the theory of moksha as
enunciated in Upanishads, he lays greater emphasis on
the theological concept of moksha as eternal divine
service [bhagavath kaimkarya]. This view is
predominantly expressed throughout Thiruvaymozhi of
NammAzhwAr and also in other prabandhams. piLLan
paoints out [for this ten verses] that such a service
[kaimkarya] is to be rendered not only at all times;
but at all places and in all states. This type of
kaimkarya or moksha is the Ultimate Goal [Parama
purushartha], because it is made available to
jeevathman by the Supreme Lord only in the state of
moksha. NammAzhwAr goes to the extent of saying that
he would never seek at any time any other thing than
the ever lasting divine service. [nithya kaimkarya]
