AzhwAr's Experience -How to see the Lord Continuing the experience of swAmi nam AzhwAr, it is a universally known fact that AzhwAr submerges into the ocean of emperumAn's thoughts, qualities. This emotional entanglement leads him to a state where he sees all the things as the Lord and bursts into ecstasy. " pUvaiyum, kAyAvum, nElamum pOkkinRa, kAvi malar enRum kAN dhOrum, pAviyEan mellAvi mei migavE pOrikkum, avvavai ellAm pirAn vuruvE enRu" periya thiruvandhAdhi 73 As sri sadagopan Iyengar states it is very difficult for us even to adapt AzhwAr's stand when in presence of The LOrd's archAvathAra thirumEni. In fact, AzhwAr sees the Lord in everything.We are not able to see the Lord in His thirumEni. When AzhwAr sees pUvaip pO, kAyAm pO, karuneidhal pushpam out of emotional experience not only AzhwAr's mind but also his physique expands on the joy of seeing the Lord. However, all the AzhwArs experience is not similar. There are AzhwArs who melt on seeing the Lord. We will see that next. vAnamAmalai padmanAbhan [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
