SrI:

Dear BhakthAs of ThiruviNNagarappan :

Today , let us enjoy the 8th Paasuram of Kaliyan's Periya Thirumozhi
from 6.2 decad :

theevaay valvinayAr udan ninRu siRanthavar pOl
    mEvA vennarahatthu idar uRRU virainthu vanthAr
Moovaa Vaanavar tamm MudalvA ! mathik-kOLL viduttha
   DevA ! NinnadainthEn ThiruviNNagar MeyavanE !

(Meaning) : Oh Lord of the DevAs and Nithya Sooris ( eternally
liberated souls) , who never age ( Moovaa vaanavar tamm
Mudalvaa ) ! Oh the king of Vaidhyars/Doctors   , who cured
adiyEn's mind  of the   ksahya rOgam/ consumptive disease
( mathi kOLL viduttha DEvA ) through Mantra UpadEsam  !
The grand sins (vinaikaL) with destrcutive fire in their mouth
acted as adiyEn's well wishers and followed adiyEn everywhere
to cease the opportunity to push me in to the fierce fires of
hell (narakam) . As they hastened to fulfill their wish , adiyEn
ran away from them to the safety of Your ThiruvadivAram
(Sacred feet  ) . It is now Your duty to protect adiyEn from
all these calamities .

Special Notes:

"Thee Vaay val-vinayArhaL " refers to the vinais or accumulated sins
(VinaikaL) talking the shape of humans with closed mouths . Once the mouth
is opened , destructive fire came out of them . These Vinais mean nothing
but inauspiciousness  , destruction and naraka vaasam  . The Vinais
pretended as though they were anukoolars ( well wishers) just like
the Raakshasi Poothanai did by hiding herself as a beautiful lady
interested to feed the infant KrishNa with her breast milk .
These horrible sins came rushing to adiyEn with the sole intent of
pushing me in to the hot embers of Narakams like Taptha
Kumbham , KumbheebhAgam , Taptha lOham , Mahaa JwAlam
( for the one who insults Vedam or teaches it for money ) , VilOhitham ,
Krumeepaksham , adhOmukham ( narakam for one who recieves dhAnam
from lowly ones  and for those who predicts about future happenings
without the study of JyOthisha sAsthram ) and other narakams
like agni jwAlam . adiyEn could have saved myself by performing
appropriate PrAyscchitthams . adiyEn did not do them and it is
no wonder these sins have been chasing me to trip me and to dump
me in hot fires of hell .

In the NaimichAraNya Paasurams , Kaliyan has elaborated on
one such hell ( Taptha Kumbham )reserved for those , who lust after
the wives of other men :

vampalAm koonthal manayviyai thuRanthu
   piRar poruL thaaram yenRivaRRai
nampinAr iRanthAl naman tamar paRRi
  yERRi vaitthu yeriyezhuhinRa
chempinAl iyanRa paavayai Paavee
  tazhuvu yena mozhivatharkkanji
NampanE , vanthun thiruvadi adainthEn
  NaimichAraNayutthuLL YenthAi

Abandoning one's wife and going after the other person's wife yields
a special type of  punishment   in narakam ; the sufferings of  such
a person is described by Thirumangai in the above Paasuram .
Out of fear for this and other narakams , Kaliyan states that he has
arrived at the sacred feet of the Lord of NaimichAraNyam .

Kaliyan is not guilty of any of these sins but he reminds the sinners of
the world about the consequences of their actions so that they can do
appropriate redemptive vrathams ( PrAyascchitthams ) like EkAdasi
vratham , Yaagam , penance , Kruchra-sAnthrAyaNam et al. The best
among all these Praayascchittham is the reflection on the glories  of
Lord KrishNa ( KrishNAnusmaraNam ) :

prAyascchitthAn asEshANi tapa: karmAthmakAni vai
yaani tEshAm asEshANam KrishNAnusmaraNam Param

Meditation on Lord KrishNa is the cure for " TheevAi valvinayAr idarkaL ".
That is Sarva Paapa PrAyaschittham . anusmaraNam implies sEshathva
anusandhAnam ( rememberance of the relationship of ours as the bonded
servants of the Lord in an indissoluble manner ) . There are no restrictions
on
the time or place for KrishNAnusamaraNam . It can be done anywhere at
any time . This anusmaraNam of the Lord will kindle the ruchi (desire) for
the observance of Bhakthi or Prapatthi yOgam . That person , who engages in
KrishNAnusmaraNam will never end up in narakam but will reap Moksha
Sukham .

Thirumangai explains his predicament and announces to the Lord that
he has arrived now at the safe haven around the Lord's sacred feet to escape
the chase from the fierce sins chasing him ( NinnadainthEn ThiruviNNagar
MEyavanE ) in this Paasuram .
