Role Model
 
andhanan oruvan
 
One should lead by example. The example should be a role model.
 
The term 'oruvan' indicates a unique person in a high pedestal, with high qualities, proficient in the field -to be followed- a paragon,-a role model.
 
When thiru-mangai AzhwAr talks of andhanan oruvan-the vyAkyAna-karthA sri periya-vAchAn piLLai, inter-alia describes the primary qualities of an andhanan to be termed as "oruvan"
 
These are:
 
- Expertise in dhvayam;(rahasyArthagaL)
- Proficient in idhihAsa-purANam.
- Specialisatin in nyAya-mEmAmsai
- Spending one's life and time with aruLich-cheyal, day in and day out.
 
Dream profile -- who has been shown here as role model by Sri periya-vAchAn piLLai?
 
"muRpada dhvayathaik-kEAttu, idhihAsa purAnangaLaiyum adhigaraithu, para-paksha predishEshathukku vudalAga nyAya-mEmAmsaiyai adhigarithu,
pOdhu pOkkum aruLich cheyalAm padi piLLaiyai-p-pOlEa-adhigarikka vallavanaiyiREA "oruthan" enbadhu.
 
The highlight of this definition:Though one may be proficient in everything,  day to day life line is, aruLich cheyal--This is  the notable point here and  seen in none other than in
 
swAmy nam-piLLai.
 
'vOdhu vAimaiyum vuvaniyap piRappum vunakku mun thandha andhanan oruvan..." 5-8-7;
 
 
pOdhu pOkkum aruLich cheyalAm padi piLLaiayaip pOlEa -- The Role Model
