Commentaries-Their Greatness
 
We have scratched the surface of few great features of our commentaries.The great wonderful maNipravALam. The most appropriate quotes. The perfect aidhiyangaL. The unbiased reporting. The continuity -sangathi.
 
We are at traversing the philosphies, being excavated by our pUrvachAryas in their commentaries.
 
The Thirumanthiram, Dhvyam, charama slokam, artha panchakam, The Thathvathrayam, , The visishtAdviatham,are a few of these.
 
These are only illustrative and one has to delve deep into the ocean of the vyAkyAnam-s to really realize the potential of the contents.
 
These Commentaries were recorded in tamil and sanskrit combined -maNipravALam. This made the most wonderful reading experience.
 
The quotes from upanishads, Srimad RamayaNam , Srimad Bhagavad GiTA, Sri VishNu purANAm. ThirukkuRaL .. the list goes on- strengthens the vyakyanam and also adds credibility.
 
The anectodes or aidhiyangaL-s are the words/ discussions/dialogues between our AchAryas in real lives- which facilitates easy understanding and
also gives a peep into the life our great AchAryAs.
 
The unbiased reporting- The reporting of certain happenings in the context of particular commentary, multifarious interpretations in an unbiased manner irrespective of who is involved adds credibility to a great extent.
 
The continuity- sangathi- The links or the coherence betweeen each tens, hundreds and pathigams- are lifelines for our commentaries. These links actually bring out the expereince of our AzvAr-s.
 
The philosphy- thatvams-It is said that a needle thrown into any place on the vyAkyanam on a random basis would fall on  either of Thirumanthram, dhvyam, charma sloKam, artha panchakam, etc. These form the pillars of our SrivaishNavic faith and corroborate the fact that AzvAr-s are indeed proponents and followers of these in an unflinching manner.
 
 
Let us now go into the real-life examples, the summary avathArikai, the analytical commentaries and so on as we proceed.
