SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy Thirumangai AzhwAr?s Periya
Thirumozhi. 

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. 

maanEykaNmadavaar mayakkilpattu maanNilatthu,
nNaanEnNaanaavidha nNaragampugumpaavamseydhEn,
thEnEypoombozhilsoozh thiruvEngkadamaamalai, en
aanaay vanNdhadainNdhEn adiyEnaiyaatkoNdaruLE.    
1.9.2

Oh my dear Elephant like Beautiful Lord of cool
ThiruvEmkatam! The One who stays at ThiruvEmkata
mountain, full of honey dripping, bee humming flowers
and gardens! I have committed enormous sins and have 
earned full credits to enter into hell (royally), got
myself trapped in the trap of women's beautiful
deer-like eyes for very many years.  

Thinking of all those sins, now I regret and have
surrendered to Your Feet at TriumalA. Please save me
and take me over to You as Your eternal servant. 

Now AzhwAr worries about the other Praapthi Virodhis (
the enemies that interfere with the attainment of
Prapatti that he wishes to perform) and prays for the
Lord's anugraham to banish them and bless him with the
supreme boon of Moksham. Chasing away praapthi
virodham items is one of the essentials of Artha
panchakam.

The understanding of the  Virodhi Svarupam and the
clear knowledge about those enemies helps one to
defeat them with the grace of the Divya Dampathis.
Knowledge about the Isvara Svarupam, Jeeva Svarupam,
Upaayam, phalan and the knowledge about the  virodhis
for attaining that palan constitute together the artha
Panchakam. Swami Desikan has devoted the entire fourth
chapter of Sri Rahasya traya Saaram to 
the doctrines of Artha Panchakam. 

Swami Desikan quotes the following verse from Haaritha
Samhitha to describe the features of Artha Panchakam
that are relevant to the understanding of the
mokshArthis: 

prApyasya brahmaNO rupam prApthuscha pratyagAthmana: I
prApthyupAyam palam chaiva tathA PRAAPTHI VIRODHI CHA 
vadanthi sakalA vedA: sethihAsa -puranAkA :II

All the VedAs, IthihAsAs and PurANAs describe the
nature (Svarupam) of Brahman that is to be attained,
the nature of the Jeevan who seeks that  Brahman, the
means for that quest, the fruits of such a quest and
the obstacles on the way to such an attainment. [this
anubhavam is from Sri Sadagopan Swami]
