SrI:

Dear BhakthAs: 

Today , we will studythe second paasurams of Thirumangai
on ThirukkOttiyUrAn .

Second Paasuram : 
********************
Yevva(m) nOy tavirppAn YemakkiRai inn-nahai-thuvar vaay
NilamahaL sevvi thOya vallAn ThirumAmahatkku iniyAn
mouvval maalai vaNDAdum mallikai mAlayOdum aNaintha mArutham
Dhaiva(m) nARa varum ThirukkOttoiyUrAnE  

(meaning) : Our Lord (Swamy) is powerful to destroy all 
samsAric afflictions that are of the form of sorrow. He has
the leaning to be overcome by the sweet smiles and the coral
red lips of BhUmi DEvi .He is dear to Periya PirAtti. He resides 
in the dhivya dEsam with the divine fragrance arising from 
the breeze wafting the combined scent of the just blossomed
Mallikai and Mullai flowers .

(Comments) : The ubhaya NaachiyAr's mangaLAsAsanam by
Kaliyan is witnessed here. Vedam says : " Hreesccha tE Lakshmeesccha 
Pathnyou ". The  first of the three VyAhruthis ( BhU:) follows PraNavam
( The Lord) . That BhU dEvi is saluted by the Vedam as " Hree".
BhagavAn has been compared to the divine Harichandana tree.
Swamy  Desikan points out that this Harichandana tree(our Lord) 
becomes nourished by the association with BhUmi dEvi ( Harichnadana:
asou Thvath SangamAth labdha pOsha: ). She is the boundary 
for the Lord , who is like a limitless ocean ( VishNu jaladhE: vElA).
She ( BhUmi DEvi ) is the MaayA VarAha Mahishi , the dear wife of
the Kapata VarAhan . She is saluted especially by Thirumangai 
before even Sri DEvi because of Her KshAmA guNam and for
serving as the means for the SaraNAgathy to Her Lord by 
the frightened sinners ( Nithya aparAdha nivahAth chakithasya 
JanthO: Mukundha charaNOu  ganthum , KshamE , Thvam SaraNam).
BhUmi Devi's anaga anukampa ( matchless compassion) propels
Her to rush to the rescue of Her children .

After his salutations to BhUmi dEvi ( " Inn nahai thuvar vaay Nila 
MahaL ) , Kaliyan turns his attention to SrI DEvi , who is equally 
dear to ThirukkOttiyUrAn. She stands on the right side of 
ThirukkOttiyUrAn and enhances Her Lord's soundharyam 
( Sva-- KaanthyA BhUshayantheem) . Kaliyan knows 
the Sri Tattvam well . In that tatthvam , it is implicit that
those who eulogize Her will be blessed with every kind of
Iswaryam. She plays a wonderful chess game with Her Lord
and always wins , when it comes to the sinned jeevans
gaining the anugraham of Her Lord . If Her Lord has 
the SvabhAvam to destroy all samsAric sorrows (" Yevvam
nOy tavirppAn = aapannArthi prasamana vidhou Bhaddha 
dheekshan) , then Sri Devi has identical thoughts to join
Her Lord in these efforts as His dharma pathnee and 
Saha dharmiNi ( EikamahyOpapannAm , Priya sahachree).

Wherever Her(SrI Devi's)  auspicious glances  fall , the assembly of 
riches compete with one another to be the first and to bless
the object of Her KatAksham ( YasyAm yasyAm disi viharatE , 
Devi dhrushti: TvadheeyA , TasyAm TasyAm ahamahamikAm 
tanvathE SampadhOgA: ) . She is the abode of eternal wealth 
( kalyAnAnAm avikala nidhi: ); She is the boundary of
compassion ( KaaruNya SeemA ). She is the divine 
consort and the highest of the Iswaryam of the Lord ,
who has the ever fragrant VedAs as the MandhAraa 
garlands on His crown ( Nithya aamOdhA nigama vachasAm
MouLi mandhAra mAlA , Madhu Vijayina : dhivyA sampath ). 
She is the  wish granting KaamadhEnu for the entire world
that seeks Her anugraham ( Sakala bhuvana prArTanA
KaamadhEnu: ) . She is ThirumAmahaL and ThirukkOttiyUrAn
is " ThirumAmahatkku IniyAn ".

Thus in this dhivya dEsam , Thirumangai performs 
the MangaLAsAsanam for the Ubhaya NaacchiyArs 
of Lord Soumya NaarAyaNan and starts first with 
the eulogy of BhUmi DEvi because of being the initiative
that She took in gaining the VarAha Charama sklOkam 
for the benefit of Her children .  

Sri Soumya NaarAyaNa ParabrahmanE Nama:
