SrImathE Gopaladesikamahadesikaya namah:
 
Dearest Srivaishnavas, 
 
Let us continue to enjoy PeyAzhwAr?s wonderful
anubhavams on ThiruvEnkatam. Today?s verse on
ThiruvEnkatam is the 73rd verse. 
 
idamvalam Ez pooNda iravitthE rOtti,
vadamuga vEngadatthu mannum, - kudamn^ayantha
kootthanaay ninRaan kuraikazalE kooRuvathE,
naatthannaa luLLa nalam.            73
 
Driving the chariot with seven horses right and left
[of thEr- chariot] the Sun rises and travels across
the world? the charioteer is this Lord of
ThiruvEnkatam?[says AzhwAr]. Who is that Lord? He is
the one who had danced keeping the pot on His head..
Uttering the glories of his divine pair of Lotus Feet
[meaning uttering His divine names] is the only
befitting and good thing that [our] tongue should do. 

How does the Lord drive the chariot of the Sun?
Because He is the indweller [antharyaami roopam] in
all and directs them to act.. [bheeshOdhEthi soorya:
bheeshaasmAdhagnischEndrascha- says Upanishad.
Lord Sriman Narayana is the One who resides within the
sun and directs him to function everyday.. this is
also echoed in the following: 

Dhyeyah sada, savitrmandala, madhyavarti,Narayanah
sarasijasana samnivistah Keyooravan makarakundalavan
kiriteeHaari, hiranmayavapu rdhrta sankha chakrah

[Does it sound familiar to us] We recite the above in
our sandhyavandhanam everyday. 

The seven horses that the chariot has: Gayatri ushnik
anustup brhati pankti tristup jagatyah chandamsi?

The Lord cowherd Kutti KaNNan ? the One who had danced
with the pot on his Head is the Lord of ThiruvEnkatam
and it is the same Lord Sriman Narayanan who is the
indweller of the Sun and directs his [sun?s] function.


If the Brahmin gets rich, he performs more yagna.
If the vysya (or the cowherd folks) get richer, they
dance with pot on their head. Kudamaadu koothan] 
If the sudra gets rich, he wants to gets married again
and again..

KaNNan having taken the avathAram in the Ayarkulam
[being vysya], with such a sowlabhyam, dances with the
pot? and enjoys being addressed as Kudamaadu kootthan.
AzhwAr says: Oh Tongue, you should utter His divine
names all the time. That is the only befitting thing. 

This is similar to KulasekarazhwAr's Mukunda mala:
[verse 20] 
jihve kirtaya kesavam mura-ripum ceto bhaja sridharam
pani-dvandva samarcayacyuta-kathah srotra-dvaya tvam
srinu krishnam 
lokaya locana-dvaya harer gacchanghri-yugmalayam
jighra ghrana mukunda-pada-tulasim murdhan
namadhokshajam

meaning: Oh tongue, praise the glories of Lord Kesava.
O mind, worship the enemy of Mura. O hands, serve the
Lord of Sri. O ears, hear the topics of Lord Acyuta. O
eyes, gaze upon Sri Krishna. O feet, go to the temple
of Lord Hari. O nose, smell the tulasi buds on Lord
Mukunda's feet. O head, bow down to Lord Adhokshaja
