Dearest Srivaishnavas, 

Let us continue to enjoy the next AzhwAr?s
-BhoothatthAzhwAr?s- wonderful anubhavams on
ThiruvEnkatam. Next and today?s verse on ThiruvEnkatam
is 33rd verse. 

thuNinthathu sinthai thuzaayalangal, angam
aNinthavanpE ruLLatthup palgaal, - paNinthathuvum
vEypiRangu saaral viRalvENG kadavanaiyE,
vaaythiRangaL sollum vagai.           33

my mind has firmly caught hold of the divine names of
the most fragrant thuLasi garland adorned Lord and
been contemplating and meditating only Him very many
times; It has been attempting and trying to do that;
My body prostrates performing saashtAnga praNAmams at
the strongest and Supreme Lord of ThiruvEnkatam where
tall bamboos tress have grown densely; my mouth has
bravely and wisely chosen to utter His glorious deeds
and attributes of Him again and again.  

AzhwAr mentions that his manas, vaak and kaayam (mind,
speech and action) all three align themselves to pay
his obeisance to the Lord ThiruvEnkatamudaiyaan.
Unless the three factors synchronise, and act in
tandem, then there will be no straight forward actions
and there will be conflicts within our own self. 

AndAl also mentions the same in thooyOmaay vandu,
thoomalar thoovi thozhdhu, Vaayinaal paadi,
manatthinaal sindhikka? here also three namely mind,
body and action are referred to. 

In Thiruppavai 5th verse, she refers to the above
line:
[From SrI SatakOpan Swamin?s article on this PAsuram
of Thiruppavai:]

ThUmalar thoovi thozhuthu , VaayinAL paadi, ManathinAl
chinthikka": Suddha pushpAnjali as at Thirumalai is
Thoomalar Thoovuthal ; Among the flowers , Utthama
pushpam is the one grown by one in one's own garden
(nandhavanam )for the Lord like periyAzhwAr and
ThoNDaradippodi); madhyama pushpam is one grown in
common ground; the adhama pushpam is one , which are
collected through yaachakam from others.TuLasi Pushpa
samarpanam and manthra Pushpa samarpaNam are very dear
to our Lord's heart. Hence ANDAL recommends them here
.After PushpAnjali, the naama sankIrthanam (VaayinAL
paadi) has to be conducted. Bhagavath guna
dhyAna Chinthanai (dhyAnam) follows next. AmbharIsha
chakravarthy's dhyAnam of KrishNan (Sa vai Mana:
KrishNa:) is the way to follow .

ManathinAl chinthikka, pOya Pizhayum , puhu taruvAn
ninRanavum theeyinil thUsAhum CHEPPU": If we offer
pushpAnjali with a suddha manas, sing the glory of His
naamAs and meditate on Him, all of our accumulated
sins as well as the ones accrued after Saranagathi
will be burnt to ashes like the bale of cotton thrown
into a blazing fire.
