Hrdhayam 167;
The dealy in having the divine vision of
the Lord makes AzhwAr restless and in fact makes her feel angry (praNaya
rOsham) towards the Lord.The Lord assuages this feeling by showing His
omni-presence -;the omni-presence of having contrary things in Him.
That is what sri nam-AzhwAr terms as "pal vagaiyum parandha "
This is the auspicious quality highlighted
in the thiru-voi-mozhi
"nalguravum -selvum"
6-3; Here the Almighty reveals the things having contrary nature are all
pervaded by Him. The wealth-penury, city-country, knowledge-ignorance, The
refuge for the devotees but terror for the asurAs. He is none other than the
ponnappan-maNiappan -Oppiliappan.
EDu describes this aspect with
alacrity.
A thing has three causes. The casue of
origin. The material with which it is made. The equipment and accessories which
helps it to make. These are nimitha, upAdhAna and saha-kArika-kAraNam-s. We see
that these are all different for any particular thing.
However, for this nature, the universe,
the world the cause is the Lord. Being omni-presence He is the upAdhAnam and
also the saha-kArikam.
Thus what we find in normal parlance as
contradictory casues, we find as one in the Lord. That is pal-vagaiyum parandha,.

The cause of anything cannot be its
content and vice-versa.The Lord is both the cause and content. However, the
defects in these do not taint Him.Not just being without being tainted, the
Lord is the Governor of these.
This great attribute is the prime in this
Oppiliappan divya-dEsam.
Let us go into the Periya thirumozhi
pAsuram in this backdrop.
