piDi thORum nei-aDi thORum archai
àààà àààààà àààà-ààà àààààà ààààààà
 
Tirumangai AzvAr enjoys the deeds of EmperumAn. He eulogizes the Great valor of use of bending the Bow for the sake of pirATTi.
He commends Sri KrshNA's spontaneous act of picking up the mountain-Goverdhanam.
 
Be it so. However, in between, Kaliyan ventures into talking of vUragam EmperumAn and TiruvekkA EmperumAn.
 
What is the need for this? Either he could have enjoyed the deeds of EmperumAn at one go or may have cherished the divya desam-s together. Tirumangai AzvAr mixes both of these in this pAsuram.Why is this so?
 
Sri PeriyavAchAn PiLLai -The king of commentaries - sorts this out. Reasoning this out as a survival technique for Tirumangai Mannan- The vyAkyAthA explains that unlike other AzvArs who see Parathvam in Supreme-Greatness in Parampadham stage  and soulabyam -free a cessibility in archai , Kaliyan enjoys both the Greatness and simplicity in 'archAvathAram'.
 
This is likened to one eating food. For  each handful of food, ghee is added. Similarly, for each line of pAsuram, Tirumangai Azvar needs one divya dEsam.
 
 
This is for the twelfth pAsuram of TirunedunthANTakam
 
'kal eduthu-k kal mARi kAthAi ennum,
ààà ààààààààà ààà àààà àààààààà ààààààà
kAmaru pUng kachi vUragathAi ennum,
ààààà ààààààààà ààààààààà ààààààà,
vil IRuthu melliyal thOi thOyndhAi ennum,
àààà ààààààà àààààààààà àààà àààààààààà ààààààà,
vekkAvil thuyil amarndha vEAndhEA ennum..'
àààààààààà àààààà ààààààà àààààà ààààààà,
 
The extract of svAmi PeriyavAchAn piLLai vyAkyAnam is thus
 
..ààààààà ààààààààà ààà ààààààààààààààà;ààààààà àààààààààààà àààà ààààààààààààààà;àààààààààààà ààààààààààààà.
ààààààà àààà ààà ààààààà; àààààààààà àààà àààààààààààà àààà àààààààààààààààààààà àààààààà àààààààààààààà.ààààààààà ààààààààà àààààààààààààààà ààààààààààà àààààààà.
 
Translation of the above
 
Either AzvAr does not enjoy the deeds of incarnation of EmperumAn or relishes His Divine places (Divya Desam-s) He does this together mixed.
The reason being, Tirumangai AzvAr cannot be without Divya Desam. This is like a person who cannot take food without ghee and takes ghee for every handful of food.
 
This is again a simple example but a real life one and the import can be understood easily
