Parabhakthi- ParajnAnam – Paramabhakthi
Para bhakthi – The master of the 2 vibhoothis (leela and nithya) due to his unconditional grace showed his svaroopa (characteristic), roopa (form), svaroopagunas (character) and roopa gunas (attributes) through a flourishing knowledge injected into azhvar (parabhakthi). Poigai azhvar cherished the divine grace and enjoyed the intelligence and appropriately narrated the same in the form of poems (paasurams) starting with 'vaiyam thagaliya' and talked elaborately about the lord with amazing roopa, guna, vibhoothi and also about the characteristics of a jeevatma through 'vAy avanai alladhu' 'thirumAlai alladhu EththEn' paasurams that explain the ananyArhasEshatva svaroopathvam (the characteristic of being a servant only to the supreme master forever). And the end result of this ananyArha sEshatvam is ever tirelessly doing nithya kainkaryam to the divine feet of emperuman (supreme master) ["voozhiyAn pAdham maruvA dhArkkuNdAmOvAn", "Oradiyum sAdudaiththa"]
That end result can be given to us, again only by his divine feet. Thereby the goal and means is the same – His divine feet – concluded poigai azhvar in his mudal thiruvandhAdhi.
Next, BhoodhatAzhvar continued in the same way to enjoy the roopa guna vibhoothis of the supreme master, but due to the lord's unconditional grace his parabhakthi developed into parajnanam (Devotion with love), thereby he enjoyed deeply the kalyana gunas (divine qualities) of the lord. Not wanting to stop with self enjoyment he gave the same to the world through his irandAm thiruvandhAdhi.
Next, pEyAzhvar who enjoyed the divine anubhavams of the first two through their paasurams, was further enhanced with parama bhakthi again due to the unconditional grace of the supreme master and landed up having the sAkshAtkaram (divine darshan) of the supreme lord. Like a person who has dived into an ocean seeing the corals and pearls scattered throughout, pEyAzhvar enjoyed each and every part of the supreme lord starting with 'ThirukkandEn'
Though all 3 azhvars underwent all 3 stages of development the way it was showed to the world was successive due to the divine sankalpa (wish) of emperuman.
