SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy Thirumangai AzhwArs 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. 

ThirumangaiAzhwAr proceeds to plead the Lord of
TirumalA for His unbounded limitless mercy that pours
out on His own -out of His Greatest compassion on us.
Let us enjoy this nice ten on AzhwAr's plea.

thooNaayadhanoodu ariyaayvanNdhuthOnRi,
pENaavavuNanudalam piLanNdhittaay!,
sENaar thiruvEngkadamaamalaimEya,
kONaagaNaiyaay! kuRikkoLLenainNeeyE.   1.10.5

Oh Lord! The one who appeared from a pillar and tore
the body of hiraNyan and killed him! NarasimhA! The
One who has AdhisEshan - ThiruananthAzhwAn as His Bed!
The Lord of Great ThiruvEmkatam! Please come out of
Your own will and out of Your Greatest compassion,
have mercy on me! 

PeriyAzhwAr also enjoys Narasihma avathAram in his
verse? 

aLandhittathooNai avanthatta aangE
vaLarn^dhittu vaaLukirchchingavuruvaay
uLandhottiraNiyan oNmaarvakalam
piLandhittakaikaLaalsappaaNi
       pEymulaiyuNdaanE! sappaaNi.

[Excellent PAsuram!] HiraNya kasipu had built the
pillar under his own supervision a huge, beautiful
pillar in his palace hall. When he himself knocked the
pillar that was measured so many times earlier by him,
with pride, then and there came out and grew so huge
the ferocious Lion faced Lord Nrusimhan, with
thunderous sound and glowing fiery eyes and thEjas; He
tore open the chest of HiraNyakasipu with his sharp
nails in his Hands and clap with those Hands! Oh Lord
who sucked the breast of demon Poothanai! Clap! Clap? 


Since he himself measured and built it, how there
could be Sriman Narayanan there inside!- he would have
thought. Poor guy! When Nrusingan came out, He thought
there could be some transformation in his
(HiraNyakasipu?s] heart and hence He touched the heart
to see. Still, it was with terrible cruel anger and
hatred glowing inside. Hence He tore open the chest.

He tore open the chest keeping the enemy on His lap.
He sucked the breast holding the same with His nails
and killed her lying on her lap. -compares Sri UttamUr
Swamy quoting poorvar?s vyAkhyAnams.

Thirumangai AzhwAr ThiruvaDigaLE SaraNam

Namo Narayana
