SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest srivaishnavas,

He reclined on PaaRkadal (Milky coean) being praised
by the Devas. AzhwAr now wonders how were You able to
apprear as lowly being as Tortoise!- in this verse. 

Koosam onRum inRi maasuNam paduththu vElaineer
pEsaninRa dEvar vandhu paada mun kidanthathum
paasam ninRa neerilvaazhum aamaiyaana kEsavaa,
Esa anRu nee kidanthavaaRu kooRu thERavE. 20.

Oh KoormAvathAra Adhi Devaa! Kesavaa! The chief of
BrahmA and Rudran! You appeared as Tortoise that lives
in waters! You ¡V without any fear- recelined on the
great AdhisEshan as Bed on the milky coean- praised by
all Devas assembled along with Chathurmukha BrahmA and
Rudran [who all are talked about by people as ¡§gods¡¨
] addressing You as Supreme Lord. Not just that, after
that without any inhibition, without feeling ashamed
or shy- without any airs about the lowly nature of the
avathAram- being looked down upon for having taken as
KoormAvathAram- You lied down. Please tell me to make
me understand why and how. 

Koosam onRum inRi- Without any fear-that the magic
asurAs would arrive and put him in danger when He is
having His Yoga nithrA on PaaRkadal (Milky ocean);
Even when He reclines on the fiery eyed- fiery mouthed
AdhisEshan Huge snake; even when He kept His eyes
closed for ages after ages; even when the soft tender
fingers of Periya PiraaTTi Mahalakshmi touches the
lotus feet of the Lord (no koosam); even when he
thinks that inspite of the aprAkrutha Paramapadham,
why do I still reside here in prAkrutha milky ocean-
no such koosam;- there van be many such statements. 

pEsa ninRa- Devas, Rudran are all being talked about
and mentioned by people as Gods; and they themselves
praise Him at PaaRkadal as Supreme Lord! (Kesavaa)
[similar to Pesa ninRa sivanukkum piraman thanakkum-
Thiruvaaymozhi] 

vElai neer- the ocean roars and the roar and praise
rhyme and are equal. [The ocean also praises so
loudly] 

paasa ninRa- paasam ninRa- He considers the waters
where He appeared as Kooramam more dear than the milky
ocean. Such a sowlabhyan is He.  

After being praised by everyone at paaRkadal, the Lord
appeared as Tortoise being looked down upon during
KoormAvathAram for having taken a lowly being form ¡
yEsa kidanathathu; [just opposite of what they were
doing in Milky ocean where they were praising the
Lord] 

Without losing Your Parathvam, You were getting
praised by Devas at PaaRkadal. Here in deep waters
lying down as Koormam holding the huge mountain on
Your back; with such a sowseelyam and sowlabhyam-
being looked down upon by Devas and asuRAs as a mere
being. Wherever the mountain went, the Tortoise went
there to hold; what a sowlseelyam to have undergone
such deeds for the sake of Asrithars. 

Even though You did all work of holding the tip of the
mountain to prevent it from tilting; pulling and
churning the rope; as well as holding the mountain on
His back; Paramsulabhan are You. 

Only You need to tell Me to make me understand the way
You appeared as Koormam and why. Is it because You
were pelasec to perform any action for the sake of
Asrithars? 

Thirumazhisai AzhwAr ThiruvaDigaLE SaraNam
