SrI: Dear BhakthAs of OppilA Appan : Let us enjoy the FIFTH paasuram of Thirumangai Mannan ( Periya Thirumozhi : 6.2. 5 ) : PaaNDEn vaNDaRayum kuzhalArhaL pallANDisaippa aaNDAr vyamellAm arsaahi munnANDavarE maaNDArenRu vanthAr anthO manai vAzhkkai tannai vENDEn NinnadainthEn ThiruviNNagar MeyavanE (Extended Meaning ) : Oh Lord of ThiruviNNagaram ! adiyEn was enjoying the aabhAsa iswaryam ( lowly , perishable wealth/riches) because of my incorrect assumption that the body is the Aathma . I threw myself deeply in to enjoying the pleasures of deomestic life (manai Vaazhkkai). adiyEn did not pay attention to what was happening all around me . The great kings who ruled the world , who were eulogized for a long , long life (PallANDu) by the most beautiful women of the court adorning fragrant flowers in their black , shiny tresses , where singing honey bees frequent . The awesome power of these kings inspired these beautiful ladies to sing PallANDu for them . They ruled a few years over their citizens , enjoyed their bhOgams and strutted on the global stage and died soon after like anybody else . Their power and wealth as attested by the beautiful woman singers could not help them prolong their lives . Intha ulahai AaNDavarum MaaNDaar . One day they were there on the stage and the next day they were gone and forgotten . They are not going to come back . As Poetess OuvyyAr said " AaaNDANDu thORum azhuthu puraNDAlum mANDAr varuvarO ? " . Even if you are roll on the floor and cry out for them , will those , who are dead return to this earth asks OuvyyAr here . While they were here acting out their pompous roles , these kings let their dEham and Indhriyams take over and were totally under their control . They never developed any VivEkam or VairAgyam and ignored You , my Lord and your upadEsams to overcome dEhAthma Brahamam . adiyEn has learnt from the ignominous end of these mighty kings and their helplessness inspite of their power ; adiyEn has developed hence the needed VairAgyam to disengage from these aabhAsa Iswaryams by vanquishing the mischevious indhriyams of mine . adiyEn used Your upadEsams in GitA to empower me . ThiruviNNagarAnE ! adiyEn has no more interest in the domestic life . adiyEn has taken refuge at Your sacred feet for the Parama PurushArTam of Moksham . Please grace adiyEn with Your anugraham !
