AZHWAR'S COUNSEL TO HIS
MIND
"mundhuRRa nenjukku paNi
maRavAdhu maruLozhi, nagu, kaividEal, enRu kruthya, krithyangaLai, vidhithu
nenju pOlvAraith thoNdEr enRu azhaithu.."
AzhwAr's mind raced towards the Lord even before he
did. Hence, AzhwAr first prescribes the do-s and dont-s to his mind and then
extends the same to fellow souls. That is why he mentions his mind as "mundhuRRa nenjEa " in peirya thiru vandhAdhi

Right in the first thiru-voi-moizhi AzhwAr counsels
"thozhudhu, ezhu en mananEa" 1-1-1;
What are the things that are mentioned for the
mind:
1. Worhsip Him daily.
"paNi nenjEa nALum, parama

2. Good! Do not forget HIm.
"vAzhi nenjEA! maRavAdhu
vAzh kaNdAi" thiru voi mozhi 10-4-8;

wealth was blessed in this dhivya-dhEsam-s . Hence, though we are proceeding the
