valam? ?ennenjaththenninEn? [I thought in my mind] declared
azhvar in the previous paasuram.
Now thirumazhisai piran elaborates the state of perumal and azhvar
himself after that. (edamAvadhennenjam endrellAm) After I got him in my
mind, my heart has now become his permanent
residence. Where was he earlier? (paNdu pada nAganai) Earlier he lay on the divine
serpant with thousands of strong heads strengthened due to the constant contact
with the divine thirumeni of the supreme lord. (endrellAm ennenjam-paNdu padanAganai) sAdhyastalam (the
place where the result has been obtained) ? sAdhanAnushtAnastalam (from where we
do various activities to attain the ultimate result) This is a very secret meaning in our
srivaishnava sampradayam. While it
is obvious for us to do various things to reach the divine feet of the lord, the
lord who is overhasty to reach us does penance in the thiruparkadal
(vyuhAvatara) and on entering the heart of the jeevatma rejoices to have
obtained the ultimate goal. When even we do not like to stay in a lowly place (lower to our status)
just for few minutes will the lord almighty descend to our lowly
heart? (nediyamArkku) he is the supreme lord, one who rules one
and all sarvAdhikan, sarvEsvaran.
Since he is the master due to his divine grace he has now descended to
azhvar?s heart. What did azhvar do? I cleaned the place suitable for emperuman to reside, replies azhvar in
the second half. (tidamAga vaiyEn) I will never consider other devathas
to be supreme. Who are
they? (madhisoodi tannOdu ayanai) Rudra saved chandra from
danger and hence considers himself to be the protector of all
(sarvarakshagan). Brahma considers
himself to be great since he appeared suddenly from the divine naval of sriman
narayanan. But I will never
consider them to be supreme. (nAn vaiyEn)
My mind is now clear of any doubts.
I have been now blessed with the intelligence and knowledge to
differentiate between the fact and unreality. Vai-sharp (sharpness of mind) (vaiyEn AtseiyEn) Due to my strong understanding I will
never surrender to the brahma rudras. ?pradhibuddA na sEvantE? (bharata-moksha-116) [sharp minded will never
surrender] (valam) All these have resulted due to the strength
obtained due to the krupa (divine grace) of
emperuman. (To Be
Continued)
