srI:
SrI  sAra  sAram â I (50)
-- 
I â ThirumantrAdhikAram 
                -- 
The Significance of ânArAyaNanAyaâ   
--- 
        Swami Desikan summarizes all these points in a beautiful Tamil verse:
âyAthAmivaiyanaitthum padaitthEnthum iRaiyavanumAik
 kOthAm kuNangaLuDan kuRukAtha guNatthanumAi
 mAthApithAvena mannuRavAik kathiyenna ninRAn
 pOthAr thirvuDan ponnaruL pootthanam puNNiyanE.â  

Meaning: 

âpOthAr thirvuDanâ --  Along with SrI Who resides in flower;
âponnaruL pootthaâ â full of great compassion;
ânam puNNiyanâ â Our Lord Who appears to be the very personification of 
our good deeds;
 âpadaitthEnthum iRaiyavanumAiâ â Remains the Lord by creating and 
protecting; 
âyAthAmivaiyanaitthumâ â All these sentient beings and non-sentient 
things 
 âkOthAm kuNangaLuDan kuRukAtha guNatthanumAiâ --  Having all the 
auspicious qualities without a trace of any bad quality;
 âmAthApithAvena mannuRavAiâ â Being a strong relative like  Mother or  
Father;   
âkathiyenna ninRAnâ â Stands as the goal.    
        The Lord is known through the name, ânArayaNaâ as the One Who, 
accompanied by Sri, is full of compassion; is the very personification of our 
good deeds; is the Creator, the Protector and the Ruler of everything, both 
sentient beings and non-sentient things; is without any trace of any of the bad 
qualities but full of auspicious qualities; remains a close relative like a 
mother and a father; and is the ultimate goal to be attained.
