SrI:
SrImathE Ramanujaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas, 

In the last PAsuram, the sthithi kaaraNathvam was
described. Now AzhwAr addresses perumAl ? the
SarvEshwaran is the srushti, samhAra kaaraNan (cause
of birth and deaths of those responsible namely BrahmA
and Rudran for action of srushti samhAram, (birth and
deaths of everyone else by being their antharyaami and
He is also the antharyaami of the Time (Kaala
tattvam). He says: even those who are above Rudran can
not see Him fully

aathiyaana vaanavarkku
  maNdamaaya vappuRaththu,
aathiyaana vaanavarkku
  maathiyaana vaathin^ee,
aathiyaana vaanavaaNa
  ranthakaalam neeyuraiththi,
aathiyaana kaalan^innai
  yaavar_kaaNa vallarE?     (8)
   
 

On Lord- who is the Prime Cause and Primordial Chief
of everything! Who is capable of seeing You fully? You
are the cause of swarUpa, sthithi pravrtthi of those
eternal nithyasUris at Paramapadham beyond this
Universe ? Cosmic matter (Prakrithi);[ which is huge
and vast even for those so-called creator Brahmaa
(chathur mukha brahmaa- four faced one) and the
celestial bodies ? devas- wherein they reside]; Oh
indweller of the Time (Kaala tattvam) which is cause
for (and beyond) everything else! You are the one
fixing the time (of last moments) of those rudraas who
live up there (vaana vaaNar) and thus YOU ARE ABOVE
ALL undoubtedly. Who can comprehend and see You ever!
None! 

The first line should refer to Brahmaa dakshAthaya:
and the third line refers to rudra:
kaalaanthakadhyAccha: which mean the same. [Sri
NammAzhwAr Thiruvoimozhi 4.9- onRu dhEvul ulagum
uyirum maRRum yaadhul illA * anRu- naanmukhan thannOdu
dEvar ulahOdu uyir padaitthAn ]   

The second line ?aadhiyaana vaanavarkkum aadhiyaana
aadhi nee- one should recall Swamy Desikan?s Tamil
pAsuram in Desika prabandham-  purudan maNivaramaaga;
ponnaa mUla prakruthi? which is based from VishNu
purANam?s asthrabhUshaNAdhyAyam- which states that
NithasUris (some) are the kaaraNam for leelAvibhUthi
kaaryam? 

The firstly srushti cause is mentioned and hence in
third line- samhAram is referred to- antha:kaalam
(final moment). Adhi refers to samhAram here. This is
line with Sri Bhaashyakaarar?s commentary on
BrahmasUthram- where he refers to Adhi padham as
atthA= adhanakartthA- meaning- samhAra kartthan. 

For everyone- You fix the final day and time. 
[as mentioned by You in Bhagavad GitA- Ch 8- 16th
verse-  
aabrahmma bhuvanaallOkA: punaraavartthinoRjuna |
maamupEthya thu kaunthEya punarjanma na vidhyathE ||

Krishna says: Arjuna! All the worlds, starting from
the world of Brahmaa, have returned (and are subject
to rebirths).. Oh KaunthEyA! Son of KuntI! But
attaining Me (surrendering to Me_, rebirth is not
known.]

Thus one who presumably the cause ? Brahmaa and
presumably the cause for samhARam- rudran ? are also
born and dead by our Lord Sriya: Pathi Sriman
Narayanan who is the antaryaami of Kaala tattvam-
Time. 

Even Brahmaa and Rudra do not have control over Time?
[Again in Gita 8th Ch- 17th verse- 

sahasrayugaparyantham aharyadhbrahmaNO vidhu: |
raathri yugasahasrAnthAm tE(S)hOrAthravidhO janA: ||

Those people, those who know about- day and night-
understand that the day of Brahmaa is upto the end of
thousand yugaas; the night is also being to the end of
1000 yugas. 

SrI Paraasara also says: anaadhirbhagawaan kaala: -
antharyaami of Kaala (time) 

Thus You are above all; cause of all; antharyaami of
all. Who can see You thus! [except for vedaaanthins]
