vAnAchala mahA munayE Namaha Paasuram-34 “kurippenakku kOttiyur mEyAnai
yEththa kurippenakku nanmai
payakka-veruppanO vEnkataththu mEyAnai
meivinai nOi eidhAmal thAnkadaththum
thanmaiyAn thAl” Oh! Azhveer you instructed us to remain immersed in the
kalyana gunas of emperuman without even wasting a second. Have you ever been like that? In this
paasuram azhvar answers,”When emperuman with such great grace has descended to
this world as archAvatara and stays in many divya desams, can I ever neglect
him?” (kurippenakku kOttiyur mEyAnai yEththa) My aim is to always worship that
lord who resides in thirukkottiyur for my
sake. (kOttiyur
mEyAnai) Not being able to be separated from me emperuman left his divine abode
and now resides in thirukkottiyur.
“mEviyurai kOil” says swamy nammazhvar (thiru
4-10-2) (kurippenakku nanmai payakka) Is there anyone who doesn’t wish/think
about his own welfare? Since I care for my welfare, I without a break worship
that lord. If I look at
the lord’s greatness then it is apt for me to sing his praise. If I look at my svaroopa then too it is
correct only for me to keep on singing his praise
always. (nanmai
payakka) What is good for a jeevatma? Greatness arising due to bhagavat
samslEsham (union with the lord/bhagavan). That is why I am worshiping the
lord. (veruppanO
vEnkataththu mEyAnai) Will I show hatred towards that lord, who for my sake left
paramapadam and now has landed in thiruvenkatamalai? Will anyone ignore wealth in their
path? (mEyAnai
meivinai nOi eidhAmal
thAnkadaththum thanmaiyAn thAl veruppanO) Will I ever detest the divine
feet that automatically overrides the diseases that come to my body and the
karmas that are the root cause of all problems? Will I even forget a
second? It is either
“mei nOi” or “meivinai nOi”. While
we consider “meivinai nOi” then it indicates the karmas that are the root cause
behind sareera sambhandam. “nOi” indicates the problems arising due to the
karmas. The very
name “venkatavan” indicates that he is capable of over riding the karmas.
The same
meaning has been conveyed by Swamy nammazhvar in his paasuram thiruvaimozhi
3-3-6 as “vEnkatangal meimEl
vinaimuRRavum thAngal thangatku
nallanavE seivAr vEnkataththurai
vArkku namavennalAm kadamai adhu
sumandhArgatkE” “enakku nanmai payakka” -----à”thangatku nallanavE seivAr" “meivinai nOi eidhAmal
thAnkadaththum”-----à “meimEl vinai muRRavum
vEnkatangal” (To Be Continued) Azhvar emperumAnAr Jeeyer
