AchArya Hrhdaym sUthram 219 

As seen in the previous post, the first ten inter-alia concentrates on the 
Lord/s supremacy. 
Text: " para paraNAi ninRa vaLavEzh vaippAm avaiyuL vumbar vAnavar 
athipathi,maryarvaRa manni, manam vaikkath thiruthi......................"

The aforementioned text portion of this sUthram reflects the Lord's quality 
highlighted by Azhwar in this pathu. This is Lord's parathvam. Supremacy. the 
thiru-voi-mozhi-p pAsuram that spearhead this content are listed out from the 
first ten of thiru-voi-mozhi.

What is supremacy? The Great entity who creates,maintains, demolishing the 
worlds, the Lord who is the only leader of all the universe, worlds, -nitya 
vibhUthi and lElA vibhUthi-the entity whe is both the means and the end, with 
endless joy,the entity who has the souls and the worlds as His 
physique-sarEra/sarEri-with omnipotence, full of knowledg, the great soul being 
the head of nithya sUri-s, the essential meaning of all the terms, the Lord who 
grants Himself to nitya-sUrigaL for being enjoyed and so on.

What are the pAsuram-s :

----------> 'varan mudhal Ai avai muzhudhu vuNda para paran'(1-1-8)========> 
creating and consumingall the worlds including braHma, rudhrAdhigaL.
---------> "aLi poRai Ai ninRa paran..." (1-1-11)================>The Lord here 
is indicated as the Supreme of both 
the worlds.

the nithya sUrigaL thirve.

---------->'ayarvaRum amarargaL athipathi" (1-1-1)=======>The nitya-surigaL

'mayarvaRa mathi nalam aruLinan' -1-1-1; and 'mayarvaRa en manathEa manni 
ninRAn thannai' -1-7-4;


The Lord out of His voluntary GRace granted knowledge and eradicated igorance 
to AzhwAr. This enabled all the puNNiya pApam to get nullified(sArndha iru val 
vinaigaLum thERthu, than pAl manam vaikkath thiruthi) and settled down in 
AzhwAr's mind.
