SrI upakAra sangraham - 2

INTRODUCTION
This Rahasya-grantha is based on the first verse of srI nammAzhwAr?s ?Thiruviruttham? , the first srIsookthi of the AzhwAr. It has three parts called ?adhikArams?.
swami Desikan explains in it the various favours done or being done by the Lord SrImaN nArayaNA for the jIvAtmAs.
The first adhikAram, named as
?poorvOpakAra paramparAdhikAram?, describes the four basic favours being done by the emperumAn to the jIvAtmA from beginning-less time. They are: a) creating ?agnAtha sukrtham?, i.e., unknown good-deeds; b) ?sikshA-roopa? favours, i.e., favours by correcting the jIvA through punishments; c) creating involvement in appropriate services (?ucita sEshavrutti apEkshai?); and d) other favours numbering 27 through kindness.
The second section called, ?sAdanadhikAram?, describes five favours of the Lord to enable
the jIvA to adopt a means ? either bhakti or prapatti during his life time and the favours to the prapanna jIvA when he leaves the body.
The third section, ?niryANAdhikAram?, describes the favours done by the Lord after the prapanna jIvA leaves his materialistic body. In this, swAmi Desikan also gives word-to-word meaning of the first verse of nammaAzhwAr?s ?thiruviruttham? beginning with ?poinindra?, six messages given in the verse, and its most important significance.
Lastly, swAmi Desikan expresses his gratitude for the favour done to him by the Lord, in presenting this work through him. He also shows the reason for naming the AzhwAr?s work as ?thiruviruttham?.
