pArthan and ThErthan
 
 
The word thErthan refers to purity and pArthan to arjunA. Sri KrshNA who is supreme gave Himself fully to arjunA and came down for the sake of PANDAvAs and did all errands for them.
 
arjunA despite all this wanted to worship shivA and Sri krshNA obliged him with his thiruvadi and arjuna worshipped  the thriuvadi with flowers.On his dream arjunA had the vision of shivA bearing the flowers on his head and arjunA realised the Supremacy of the Lord -the thErthan.
 
'thErthan vulagaLandha sEvadi mEal pUnthAmam sEarthavaiyEa
sivan mudi mEal thAN kaNdu
..pArthan theLindhozhindha painthuzhAyAn perumai'' thriuvAimozhi2-8-6;
 
 
This is svAmi nAmAzvAr.
 
Sri Thriumangai AzvAr also uses the same terms in a single pAsuram.
 
The supreme Lord of the worlds, charioted for the sake of arjunA and won the protected the  pANDAvAs.Therthan rode the chariot for pArthan.
 
'pArthanukku aruL seidhu bhArathathu oru thEar mun ninRu kAthavan thannai
viNNoAr karu-mANikka mA-malaiyai---thErthanai ." Thirumozhi 9-9-8;
 
and there goes another similarity between thriuvAimozhi and thriumozhi
