Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's
Mumukshuppadi

Sutra:
104. irA madamUttuvAraip pOlE uLLE pathikidanthu SaththaiyE
pidiththu nOkkik koNdu pOrum.

Meaning:
Just as parents follow their children, who angered with them
have left the home, to the place where they are staying and
feed them without their knowledge, He too will stay out of
sight, inside the chetana (as antaryAmi) and continue to
protect them.

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
When we ignore Him and are devoted to others, why would He
stay concerned with us?

Take the case of some children as an example. Angered with
their parents, they would leave their home and roam around
without food. Their parents would not let it go at that.
They would follow their children around without their
knowledge and in the night times hide in the mutts where
they stay and provide food for them through others. 
Similarly, He too would stay as antaryAmi inside the 
chEtanas that claim independence and run away from Him,
and continue to protect them.

Thus, the meaning of the nArAyaNa term has been explained
as Him who is the receiver of service (from the chetanas).
