Srimathe ramanujaya Namaha
Dear Sri Padmanabhan swamy,
Your campaigning for thirukurungudi is great. Since unfortunately it is
parthasarathi's wish to stay as the opposition and by accident put adiyen as
the campaigning authority for his side let me put forth some points.
Note: Dear Bhagavatas, Other than the deep bhakthi towards
Parthasarathi/Thiruvallikeni adiyen is least eligible to get into campaigning
against well knowledgable great bhagavata like Sri Padmanabhan swamy. But it is
parthasarathi's greatness to win with just illiterate/ignorant souls like
adiyen talking for him.
First of all, Sri Vaishnava nambi gained his vaishnavathvam only due to Swamy
Ramanuja who was blessed to this world only by our dear Parthasarathi (Swamy
emperumanar is considered even as a avathara of Parthasarathi emperuman)
We all become Vaishnavas only after getting the 3 great rahasya manthras from
our acharyan and surely all of us know that the 3rd of the rahasyams, Charama
slokam was given only by our dear geethAcharyan who stands even today
indicating to his divine feet in the beautiful attire of a divine charioteer.
So but for parthasarathi, Sri Vaishnavism would have been in total darkness.
Beauty lies in heart. Can you show any other emperuman who for the sake of his
devotee accepted so much wounds on his face and till today stands with the same
marks? Today we all try to make ourselves beautiful by doing plastic surgery to
cover even a small cut mark. But Parthasarathi was not interested in a plastic
surgery but felt that the beauty lied only in showing his sowlabhyam (indicated
by the marks). And amazingly, even the marks gives Parathasarathi's thirumugam
a divine beauty ("kannanennum karundeivam"). Black beauty. You know what black
signifies in our sampradayam. Karunai/kArunyam. Only the clouds that are dark
in colour shower a lot of rain for the welfare of one and all without any
differentiation. Similarly only that karundeivam- Parthasarathi showers his
grace on one and all without any differentiation. He showed his paratvam when
he said the charama slokam and showed his sowlabhyam while tied by yesodha.
What other poorthi do we really need?
Sure Parthasarathi is the "thuyar kalai devu" even for the brahma rudras. Our
poorvacharyas say, " In Ramavatara, the greatest mistake emperuman did was to
not washing out all his enemies totally but leaving out one or two here and
there that created all the problems. But in Krishnavatara emperuman didn't
commit that mistake again so he washed out all his enemies." Rudran and other
devas while they are filled with sAtvika gunam they consider themselves as
bhagavatas but the very same deva sometimes filled with rajasa tAmasa gunas
even fight against emperuman. So is it wise to keep them beside? When they came
for help emperuman rendered the necessary help due to his ultimate compassion
to one and all. But after that it is only wise to send them away. Today the
thirukurungudi divya desam is in trouble only because nambi did that mistake of
keeping sivan beside him "pakkam nirka nindra". If we Srivaishnavas are not
awake probably that Srivaishnava Nambi may even loose his prominence in that
divya desam like Govindarajan (chidambaram/thirupathi) and ThirumAliruncholai
Azhagar today. If slowly all Divya desams face such problems what is the state
of Srivaishnavas? Isn't it our responsibility to act quickly and save our divya
desams from commercialisation and corruption?

Dear srEvaishNavites,
Continuing the camapign for thrukkuRungudi:
paNbar
Going by the magnaminity: sri nambi was not happy in just removing the hurdles
of shivA -thuyar kaLai dhEvu- but gave him shelter by his side and honoured
him. This being a great temperement and quality is highly appreciated by
thirumangai mannan as
"pakkam niRka ninRa paNbar vUr" periya thiru-mozhi 9-
Going by the eternality of the divya-dEsam:
'mannu kuRungudiyAi'
Sri periyAzhwAr has declared that this divya dEsam as a permanent feature even
if the praLayam take away all other places, this divya-dESam is likely to exist
surviving the praLayam.That is why the adjective
"mannu kuRungudiyAi" periyazhwAr thiru-mozhi 1-5-8
The vyAkyanam:
'praLayathukkum azhiyAdha thirukkuRungudiyilEA vardhikkiRavanEA"
Going by the unforgettable nature:
First full-fledged thiru-voi-mozhi-p pAsuram dedicated to thirukkuRungudi:
the end of the first ten of thiru-voi-mozhi witnessed AzhwAr exclaiming on what
grounds can he forget nambi?
Can he forget because He is incomplete- no He is paripUrNan.
Can be forget Him because He is not superior- NO.
Can he forget as He is not pretty- no He is full of beauty.
The Edu is wonderful in this regard.
