samayam
Having seen kaDavuL a very common term used rarely by our AzhwArs,.
samayam is another common term but used in entirely a
different context by both sri nam-AzhwAr and sri kaliyan.
Generally, samayam refers to a time-period
or a reliogion based faith. Here, it refers to transformation of
objects.
"yAvarum yavaiyum
thAnAi avaravar samayam dhOrum thOvilan pulan
aindhukkum..." thiru-voi-mozhi 3-4-10;
The souls and objects undergo
transformation. The Lord is pervading in all but does not get affected by
the kArmic effects.
It is a beauty to observe that sri
thirumangai mannan also uses this term in the same
context.
"chandhamAi, samayam Agai samaya aim-bhUdham
Agi.." periya thiru-mozhi 4-6-9;
The chandhams of upanishads transform into
meters/anushtups etc. The Lord is inner governor of these.
Similarly, the pancha-bhUdham also undergo
transformation while being created, sustained and destoryed. The Almighty is the
inner governor of these.
