SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah: Dearest all, After Thirumazhisai AzhwAr Naanmukhan ThirvanthAthi on ThiruvEnkatam, we will begin to enjoy Thirumazhisai AzhwAr?s verses [on Thirucchanda viruttham]. The second prabhandham of Thirumazhisai is Thirucchandha Viruttham with 120 passurams.They are the most plesant to listen and are set in the brisk chantham style. It is most auspicious and hence it has the prefix of "Thiru".It is Viruttham or vrutthAntham , a description of AzhwAr's deep Bhakthi for Sriman NaarAyaNan as the Supreme One. In this dhivya Prabhandham, AzhwAr refers to the Tatthva- Hitha-PurushArthams in his first three paasurams. Next, AzhwAr salutes the Para, VyUha forms of the Lord and acknowledges the Lord as the One responsible for tha samashti, Vyashti and Sarva Srishti (Creation of every kind as Jagath-KaaraNan) and says that it is not easy for anyone to comprehend fully the SvabhAvam (true nature) of the Lord, who is the antharyAmi of all ChEthanams and achEthanams. AzhwAr states that the anugraham of the Lord has made it possible for him to understand His svabhAvam. [From Sri Sadagopan Swami's article] First verse is the 48th verse on ThiruvEnkatam. Thus when AzhwAr sang for blessing him with His divine darshan, the Lord shows Himself His archAvathArams; AzhwAr rejoices and sings His paramOpakAram (Greatest Help) here. kunRiln^inRu vaanirunthu neeLkadalki danthu,maN onRusenRa thonRaiyuNda thonRidanthu panRiyaay, nanRusenRa naaLavaRRuL nalluyir_pa daiththavarkku, anRuthEva maiththaLiththa aathithEva NnallayE? 48 You- standing majestically on the hill of ThiruvEmkatam; reclining on the large milky ocean; also appeared in waters and on land (as vibahavaavathArams- Mathsya kUrma, Rama Krishna et al); During PraLayam (dissolution) retained the universe and beings in Your stomach; appeared as Varaaha avatHAram (Huge Boar) and brought the bhUmi back from troubled waters killing HiraNyAkshan; During those good days (or time), You bless Your devotees (Asrithars) with Your divine darshan to the extent of their qualifications and bhakti thus declaring Yourself as the Chief of everyone including dEvAs- Primodial Chief. More than vibhavAvathArams which are like the one time heavy floods; the archAvathArams are more permanent and are here for us to enjoy. You never ever leave the divine place of ThiruvEmkatam and show Yourself gracefully for us.. Also during praLayam You may have been keeping the mountain safe within You; Thus, being at ThiruvEmkatam, You protect both vibhUthis- namely, leelA vibhUthi and Nithya vibhUthi. Hence such archA is the best of the Best? Thus in every time frame You bless us with the GREATEST form for devotees to enjoy and be saved for redemption. So also for me, You need to show me a way. If You say, Go to ThirumalA- fine. I will. Or you show me some other avathArams of Yours now, that would be great. Vaan irundhu- Being in Paramapadham- [from there] He came down to kunRil ninRu- the mountain ThiruvEnkatam and He has stood on His own accord [for our sake] neeLkadal kidanthu- Reclining on Milky ocean.. [paaRkadal] onRu senRu- going for getting the earth [back] during Vaamana avathAram.. [or any of His vibhava avathAram] onRai unDu- The cosmic matter was swallowed by Him during praLaya [to protect the same] He is the Swami and the Master of the matter and saves the same during Dissolution. onRu idanthu panRiyaay- Brought back the bhUmi [Varaaha avathAram] Thus He takes so many forms for our sake.. dayanidhi..
