******************
Tirukkachi NambigaL, who had the greatest special blessed privilege
of conversing with Sri Varadaraja PerumAL Himself. He was blessed
with this extraordinary privilege for performing the Thiruvaalavatta
(fanning) kaimkaryam to PerumAL with utmost bhakti and involvement.
In fact, NambhigaL (KaanchipoorNar) was born to Sri vaishnava
Vaisiya (Chettiar) kula Sri Veeraraghava Chettiar and Kamalai at
Poovirundhavalli. Though his parents were quite wealthy and were
successful businessmen, NambhigaL had his mind only on Bhagawath,
BhAgawatha kaimkaryam.
He became a sishya of Sri YamunAcharyar (Sri Alavandhar) along with
other sishyas namely, Periya Nambhi (Sri mahApoorNar),
ThirukkOttiyoor Nambhi, and others. Sri Alavandhar named NambhigaL
as pEraruLaaLa dAsar, while Sri Varadaraja PerumAL (PeraruLALan)
Himself named him as GajEndra dAsar. NambhigaL is the one who showed
Ramaujar to Alavandhar from afar at Kanchipuram Sri
VaradarajaperumAL temple. Ramanuja, after breaking up
from Yadavaprakasar, (when he was doing theertha kaimkaryam at
Varadaraja PerumAL Koil) approached Thirukkaccchi nambhigaL and
learnt tatvaartham from him. Thirukkacchinambhi is the one who asked
(on request from RamanujA) Sri Varadaraja PerumAL and obtained from
Lord Varadaraja the famous ' Six Words ' and passed them on to
RamanujA. The six words are: (as told by Lord Varadarja Himself to
NambhigaL)
1 ahamEva Parathvam. I- "Lord Narayana" is the Paramatma.
2 dharsnam bhEda Eva cha. :Individual souls are different from
Paramatma.
3 upAyEshu prapatthisyAth- Prapatti (SaranAgathy- Complete
Surrender) is the means to attain mOksham.
4 antima smruthi varjanam- Last remembrance of the Lord on the death
bed is NOT necessary.
5 DhEhaavasaanE mukthisyAth- mOksham can be obtained the moment one
(prapannan) lays off the present mortal body 6 PoorNaachaarya
smaashrayam- MahApoorNar (Periya Nambhi) is the AchAryan for
RamanujA, under whom RamanujA should take refuge.
Thus, Thirukkacchi became most important Sri Vaishnava link for ALL
OF all of us. Though he was born in Vaisya kulam, he was greatly
revered by YathirAjar.
