sUthram 228-16

Continuation the Thoughts of Almighty

AzhwAr knows all these :
piNakkip bhEadhiyAdha gnAnAdhi vaikalyam illai: At the time of great pralayam - 
the souls are kept and safeguarded in His stomach in a subtle form. At the time 
of creation, the kArmic effect of one soul does not get mixed up with the 
other. Such a type of knowledge and power rests with the Lord.
" piNakki yAvaiyum, yAvarum, bhEdhithum, bhEdhiyAdhadhOr, kaNakkil kErthi 
veLLak kadhir gnAna murthy" thiru-voi-mozhi 6-2-8;

Further,
yEaga murthiyil allal mAitha yathna palavidhangaL nammadhu: Moreover, after 
having created the souls, the Almighty also creates all other things, lives and 
also meditates -yOga nithirai- in the thirup-pAR-kadal to sustain them and 
keeps on blessing them with His grace. 
"yEaga murthy, iru mUrthy, mUnRu mUrthi, palamUrthiAgi, aindhu bhUdamAi, iraNdu 
chudarAi, aruvAgi, nAgamEARi, nadukkadaluL thuyinRA nArAyaNANEA.." 
thiru-voi-mozhi 4-3-3;
Thus, the Lord strives to reclaim the souls and the results are attributed to 
Him, of course.


nam thani-ninRA swathanthrar: AzhwAr has realised that the Lord is independent 
and needs no support-- 'thani ninRA sArvilA mUrthy" ;
He created the whole scheme of things; He swallowed and spit out the whole 
things; He is all the other deities; He is one and all, which I have realised 
is the essence of the pAsuram
"avanEa agal gnAlam padaithu idandhAn;
avnaEa akdhu vuNdhumizhndhAn;
avnaEa avanum, avanum, avanum,
avanEA maRRellAmum, aRindhanamEA" thiru-voi-mozhi 9-3-2;

Thus, it is crystal clear that AzhwAr has understood that the Lord is 
independent, He does not need any support, He creates, destroys and sutains the 
whole world/worlds , He creates and maintains all the souls , dieites and 
others. .
