 DR 
SALVALOGIST 
Dr 
Panacea 
SakalakalA Doctor 
Doctor 
First Sri PeriAzvAr described 
greatness from great, greater to greatest. 
Then we saw AzvAr describe 
Supremacy through vulagaLandha 
Thiruvadi. 
The most unique feature which other 
deities do not have is specially mentioned by AzvAr. 
People approach deities for wealth 
and materialistic benefits, though this is available from 
EmperumAn. 
Even these souls, have to approach 
the Almighty for salvation, for release from cycle of birth and 
deaths. 
The others do not have a clue how 
to release us from cycle of births and deaths. 
Specialists in curing heart disease 
is called Cardiologist, Specialist in child medicine is called pediatrician. I 
am not aware what a specialist in granting us salvation is called.  A 
person who gives the medicine from cycle of births and deaths is called? no 
idea. He is the specialist of all including salvation. 
Let us say 'Salvalogist' 
AzvAr in 
'eruthuk-kodiyAnum 
brahmanum indhiranum ip piRavi ennum nOikku marundhaRivARum 
illai 
maruthuvanAi ninRa 
mA-maNivaNNA maRu piRavi...' 5-3-6 
Neither ParamsivanAr nor BrahmA 
possess the medicine to cure the disease of births and re-births. It is Him who 
is the ultimate Doctor-The Doctor who releases from this vicious cycle. 
 
He is the panacea for all ills. He 
is the medicine and the physcician.He is the AchAryan turned physician. 
(normally the doctor and medicine is different. Here both are 
one) 
Thus there goes another salvo from 
PeriyAzvAr at his sublime heights, unique in establishing the Supremacy of 
Emperuman from yet another angle.
