CLASSICAL ANALYSIS BY
SVAMI MANAVALA MAMUNIKAL
If one immerses in the IDu, IDu appears
great. If one goes into TirunedunthANTakam vyAkyAnam, it is magnum opus.
However, if we go into the commenatries of Sri MaNavALa mAmunikaL, these are extremely
wonderful. All the qaualities of commenatries are present in these and is
outstanding. Be it the vyAkyAnam for mumUskhuppadi or SrivAchanabHUshaNam or AchArya Hrdhyam,, the
words of Peirya jEyar stand out tall.
Let us go into two small example of
classical anlaysis by mAmunikaL
The fifth sUthram of SrI vachana bHushaNam
:
âààààààà ààààààààààà
àààààààààààààààà àààà ààààààààà àààààà àààààààààà; ààààààààààà àààà àààààà
àààààà ààààààààààâ
'idihAsa SREAshtamAnA
SrIRAmAyanathil SiRai irundhavaL YETRAm solliTru;mahAbArathathil dhUthu pOnavan
YETRAm solliTru'
Sri PiLLai lOkachAryar brings out the point that,
in Srimad RAmAyaNam the greatness of pirATTi is spelt out and in
mahAbAratham the greatness of Sri KrishNA as messenger is brought
forth.
While giving commenatry mAmunikaL anlayses
thus:
1. Why is the term 'siRai
irundhavaL' used instead of pirATTi" -àààà ààààààààà
àààààààà ààààààà- àààààààààààààà
àààààààààà ààààààà?
2. Is it a commeandable thing to be in prison? why
it is termed as great?-àààààà
3. Why is the term ' dhUthu pOnavan' is used
instead of \Isvaran\?àààà àààààà
âààààààà ààààààà àààà àààààà
àààààààààà ààààààà?
4. Is doing a ordinary job of messenger a great thing?àààààà
These questions are answered by trhe
commentator.
PirATTi imprisoned Herself voluntarily for
the sake of relaseing the imprisonment of dhEva mahishis. If somebody
thinks that She was overpowered by rAvANA, they do not realise Her
powers.
If pirATTi had power to suprress the power of
\agni\ on TiruvaDi , she definitely had powers to ignite fire
also.
She voluntarily thus put Herself into prison for
the sake of releaseing others.
If an ordinary person is imprisoned, it is because
of their kArmic effects. Here it is out of compassion and voluntary.
Therefore, the greatrness of pirATTi 's
compassion is brought about by these words and that is why this is
great.
Did not vAlmIkI bhagavAn himself spell out
that the whole RamAyaNam is about Her greatness
..SITAyAs charitham
mahat..
Did not Azvar say \'àààààààààààà àààààààààà\ àààààààààààà
à-à-à
TirvuAimzohi 4-8-5
AzvAr-s Divya SUkthIs are the source for
AchAryAs to spell out these ideas. Is it not?
ààààààà ààààà àààààààààà àààà
ààààààà ààààààà àààààààààà ààààà;
