SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy Thirumangai AzhwAr?w
wonderful verses on Thiruvenkatamudiayaan. 

kalayaami kalidhvamsam kavim lOkadhivaakaram
yaSya kObi: prakaaSaabir aavidhyam niHatham thama:
 
I meditate on the Poet, who is like the Sun for the
whole world, to destroy the darkness of ignorance
(a~jnAnam) with his word and who destroys the Kali
dhOsham. 

kaNNaayEzhulagukku uyiraayavengkaarvaNNanai,
viNNOrthaamparavum pozhilvEngkadavEdhiyanai,
thiNNaarmaadangkaL soozh thirumangkaiyarkOnkaliyan,
paNNaarpaadalpatthum payilvaarkkillaipaavangkaLE
1.9.10

Emperumaan- the eye of all worlds- the life and jIvan
of all beings-of Dark hued ThirumEni like black
clouds- The One who is known by Vedas (and from Vedic
truths), The One who is worshipped by Nithyasooris-
The Lord of ThiruvEmkatam- about whom Thirumangai
mannan Kaliyan has sung these ten pAsurams and those
who read them will HAVE NO SORROWS/SINS, to their
account.

The Lord is the eye of all worlds. He sees them
through everyone and everything as the indweller. Not
only is He the eye? He is also the very life in them.
He is the Supporter, Director and is the Master of all
jeevans and Achith. He manifests them inside and
outside of everything. Anthar bahischathas sarva
vyaapya nArAyaNasthitha: Just as fire is in the wood,
butter in buttermilk and get released on ignition on
churning, as the case may be, ISWARA contains in
himself all his creations and releases them according
to his will. As we cannot see with our eyes the fire
in the wood or the butter in the buttermilk or the
fetus in the womb, we cannot see him directly with our
eyes even though he is in everything. 

Lord Krishna says "There is indeed none other than me,
none different from me, none superior to me. I am in
every thing but unseen like a collection of gems on a
string" -Soothre manigana eva ? GitA ? 7.7
This leads us again to the 'Sarira sariri - bhaava'
(i.e.) Body-soul relationship. ISWARA is the soul and
all other entities viz., Chetanas and Achetanas
constitute his body
What constitutes a body? There are three
characteristics' which decide what a body is. 
They are:
(i)ADARATVAM (Support)
ii)NIYANTRUTVAM (Control)
(iii)SESHITVAM (Mastery)

(i)ADARATVAM 
The body is supported by the soul. The body exists
from the time of the soul entering it while in the
mother's womb. The body continues and ultimately
perishes when the soul leaves the body. In other
words, the body is supported by the soul. As long as
the soul remains in the body the soul supports the
body, - even in the state of deep dreamless sleep. 
(ii) NIYANTRUTVAM 
The soul controls the body. While awake the body is
controlled by the will (Sankalpa) of the soul. The
body acts as per the will of the soul. While sleeping,
the body is controlled by the Svabhaava (nature) of
the soul. 
(iii) SESHITVAM 
The body exists for the fulfillment of the desire of
the soul. The soul through the mind desires something
and then the body acts accordingly. So, the body
exists only for the pleasure and purpose of the soul.
[above is an extract from Sri Anbil Ramaswamy?s
Hinduism Rediscovered book] 

The Lord is Veda Vaedhyan- essence of all Vedas. The
One enshrined in the PraNavam. 
 
These are mentioned in this divinely beautiful phala
sruthi of Thirumangai AzhwAr?s verse. Understand that
He is the indweller, life force and is the Seshi
[Master] of all jeevans. Thus, perform Saranagthi at
His Lotis Feet. You will have no more sins/ sorrows to
your account.
