1. Both this pAsuram and "nedumARkadimai"
8-10 of thiru voi mozhi commence with the terms 'nedumAl'
2. This pAsuram is representative of the
thiruvoi mozhip pAsuram "nedumArkadimai seivEan pOle" where the subservience to
the Lord extends and transforms into subservience to the devotees of the Lord
who are submerged in His grace and attributes. This is precisely
summarised in the words of that padhigam
"saymE adimaith thalai ninRAr thiruthAL
vaNangi' 8-10-2 and further "kOdhil adiyAr thm, thamargaL thamargaL
thamargaLAm" 8-10-9 and finally culminating into " nEkkamillA adiyAr
tham,
adiyAr adiyAr adiyAr engOkkaL.." 8-10-10,
thus enunciating that the devoteesof the devotees of the devotees of the Lord
are my Sirs. I am subservient to them.
This pAsuram brings this aspect to the
forefront "...baktharku , adimaithanil ellai nilamthAnAga eNNinAn mARan, adhu
kolli nilam..: swAmi nam AzhwAr considers himself as the last in the line
of devotees lineage and is subservient to one and all of them.
3. Both the pAsuram and thiru voi mozhi
8-10-11 has the "koNdu' as the final say which is the first term of the next
pAsuram.
4. 'ellai nilamAga eNNinAn mARan' is the
tribute to nam AzhwAr
