Arul Maa Kadal of Thiru SiRu Puliyoor Dhivya Desam ********************************************************************
 
In the previous Paasuram , Kaliyan appealed to one and
all to cast aside Veda-BhAhya Mathams like Jainam and
those Mathams which straddle between Vedam and outside
Vedam such as Saiva-Paasupatham as well as Veda Mathams
that stress on the worship of DevathAntharams ( Devathais
other than Sriman Narayana ) .
 
In this Paasuram , Kaliyan asks us to uplift ourselves with
single-minded aarAdhanam of Sriman NarayaNan , who is
the Para Devathai to all other silluNDi dEvathais . Latter are
all under the control of Sriman Narayanan and have been
empowered to perform their duties by Him in their assigned
positions .
 
In this beautiful Paasuram , Kaliyan points out that he practises
what he preaches . He says that he does not know as upAyam for
his Moksham anything other than the sacred feet of the Lord
residing at SiRu PuliyUr in the archA form with the name of
AruL Maa Kadal. He states that coming to this dhivya dEsam
and worshipping Chala Sayana PerumAL would not only destroy
all of our sins but also stabilize our Kaimkarya Sri . That is what I did
says Thirumangai in this Paasuram :
 
Parayum vinai thozhuthu uymmin neer PaNiyum siRu thoNDar
    aRayum punal oru paal vayal oru paal pozhil  oru paal
siRai vaNDu inam aRayum Siru PuliyUr chalasayanatthu
    uRayum IRai adi allathu onRu iRayum aRiyEn
 
(Meaning ) : Oh AasthikAs ! Worship Him and be redeemed
( Thozhuthu uyymin neer ) !  Your sins will disappear ( Vinai 
PaRayum ) . Approach Him as His servants and prostrate before
Him ( siRu thoNDeer PaNiyum ) ! Seek refuge in Him . Here at
SiRu PuliyUr , there is the abundance of water in the form of
floods ; there are fertile , green rice paddy fileds on one side ;
there are rich , green groves on another side . Every where ,
the honey bees roam with their wings spread performing 
Hari Naama Sankeerthanam . Here rests Chala Sayana PerumAl 
for ever . Adiyen worships Him here and adiyEn does not know
of any upAyam other than His sacred feet for my rakshaNam .
 
Special Notes : 
********************
"SiRu ThoNDu " that Kaliyan refers to in this Paasuram 
is what ANDAL seeks  as " KuRREval " in Her ThiruppAvai
Paasuram(29) :
 
" yeRRaikkum yEzhEzh piRavikkum unn tannOdu uRROmE
aavOm ; UnakkE nAmm aatccheyvOm ; - - -Nee yengaL
kURREVAL koLLAmal pOhAthu ; maRRai namm Kaamangal
mARRu ".
 
Seeking KuRREVal ( kuRu+yEval = EmperumAnAl yEvappatta
kaariyangaLai Avan ThiruvuLLam mahizha seythal) , ANDAL
reminds the Lord of the indissoluble Master-Servant relationship
between the Lord and the Jeevan . ANDAL reminds the Lord that it is
SvaymprayOjana , ParamaikAnthi Kaimkaryam ( Kaimkaryam for
Kaimkaryam's sake without anticipating any rewards from those
who know of no god other than the Lord  Sriman Narayna as their God ) .
 
This Kaimkaryam is "PoRRAmaRai adiyE pORRum Kaimkaryam ".
This Kaimkaryam is Bhagavath abhimatha Kaimkaryam . That which
is desired by the Lord and commanded by Him . Swamy NammAzhwAr
refers to this kaimkaryam by us as SeshabhUthars ( servants ) of  the Lord
as " ozhivil KaalamellAm  udanAy manni " seyya vENDiya KuRREval.
This is the Kaimkaryam done by those , who experience EmperumAn
as " uNNUm sORu , Paruhu neer ". This is Sarva dEsa , Sarva Kaala  ,
Sarva avasthaa kaimkaryam . it is not of the bargaining kind :
dEhi mE , dhadhAmi tE " ( Grant me this , I will give You that).
 
Kaliyan instructs us to approach the Srimanthou CharaNou
( Thiruppolintha Thiruvadi) and perform the KuRREval and
seek rakshaNam from SamsAric afflictions and have all of our
sins destroyed ( siRu thoNDeer , PaNiyum . Thozhuthu uymmin !
vinai paRayum ) .
