thaRu kaN
vEzhAam
Certain terms used by thirumangai mannan
are unique and is a learning process for us. For instance, the term 'puthEAL' refers to a demi-god -dhEvathai. Sri
kaliyan declares that those who study the eighth thirumozhi of the sixth ten
will become a demi-god for the souls of the upper
world
"..ponnulagil
vAnavarkku puthEALir AguvarEA'
Incidenctally, it is observed that swAmi
nam-AzhwAr has used this same term in thiruvAsiriyam '..nAn-muga-puthEAL-
nADu'
referring brahmA as a demi-god or
deity.
Another term nElan refers while describing
the tough kuvalayA-pETam is 'thaRu
kaN-vEAzham' What is this thaRukaNmai
?
'pUNA thanalum -thaRu kaN vEzham maruga.."
6-10-3;
Let us refer to the vyAkyAnam ?' sEARkka
ninaithAr pakkalilEA jAdhiprayukthamAna vaTTaNitha
kaNNaiyudaiya yAnai' are the words from the vyAkyAna text.The
roughness and toughness of the
elephant is thus alluded to.Here, the word is split into two and taken as
thaRu+kaN and the meaning arrived at as circular eyes.
Sri kAnchi swAmi taking the word as a
single one thaRukaN instead of thaRu+kaN -
oruvarrkum anjAdhirundha yAnai.The elpehant which was not afraid of
anybody.
That goes again to prove the richness of
the language in thirumozhi
