AchArya Hrdhaym 188 "nEr pAl nei amudhAi nirambina Eri neLikkumAp pOE, parabhakthiyAdhimaya jgyAnAmrudha apdhinimigiRa vAikarai midaindhu, mozhippattu avAvil andhAdhi enRu pEAre peRRadhu" The next question raised is whether this prabhandam was a planned and premeditated one? What was the evolution or the actual origin of this prabhandham? This is likened to a lake of water becoming milk getting transformed into ghee and becoming amrudham overflowing from the lake. Likewise, for AzhwAr the bhakthi which springs from karmA and gnAnam, became parama-bhakthi (due to Lord's blessing-mayaRvara mathi nalam aruLinan) which becomes para-gnAnam and parama-bhakthi.The actual knowledge regarding the God, the deep devotion towards the Lord are like a lake of amrudham which starts overflowing with words approaching AzhwAr for a place in the prabhandham and the spate of words, spate of poetry, spateof psalms, culminating into avAvil andhAdhi. Thus it is explained that the prabhandham was not a pre-conceived project but an emotional outburst blessed by the LOrd. vanamamalai padmanabhan [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
