 ANDAL'S ENVY CONCH'S PRIDE 

It was seen in the preceding posting that contemporary entities in the world 
were not recognised but for pAnchajanyam. This set the conch a class apart from 
others.- innAr iNaiyAr enRu eNNuvAr illai kAN.

Sleeping When? It is said that even for disciples the post-food tiredness sets 
in. Likewise, the conch takes food from the Lord's divine mouth and sleeps in 
His divine hand. What a bed? Oh! pAnchajanyamE!. You are indeed the king of 
conches -sanku+araiyA akin to puL araiyA. Indeed Your wealth is beautiful, 
extremely elegant.

What is your food= The Lord's divine nectar from the mouth = vulagaLandhAn 
vAyamudham;
What is your bed? the Lord's divine hand = kadal vaNNan kai thalathE.
The women-folk are sour with you.Why? bhagwadh vishayam should be enjoyed and 
experiened together.
AlAs! you are enjoying it alone. Is it not a cause for grievance?
"peN padaiyAr vun mEal perum pUsal sARRuginRAr.." 7-8


The next pAsuram further highlights this point. "kUdiyirundhu kuLira vENum" is 
the basic postulate of srEvaishNavism.
However, you are defying this principle, pAnchanyamE is the prime premise of 
this pAsuram
"padhinAr Ayiram dhEvimAr pArthiruppa,
madhu vAyil koNdAR pOle mAdhavan than
vAyamudham, podhuvAga vuNbadhanai pukku nE
vuNdakkAl, sedhaiyArO vunnOdu, selvapperunj changEa" 7-10 of nAchiyAr thiru 
mozhi

All the krishNan's rightful womenfolk are looking for an opportunity to grab 
the Lord's divine amudham- mAdhavan than vAi amudham- You are a spoilsport. Is 
it fair for one person to snatch the food of all others? Can a common food to 
be shared by one and all be devoured by one and only one? But you have done 
this.
What a wealth?-selvap perunjchangE;

thus the elaborate discussio on the pAchajanyam is precisely desribed in this 
seventh padhigam of nAchiyAr thiru mzohi.

is it not enough to say andAL's envy- conch's pride; AndAL's envy-AndAL's pride 
"yEindha perum pugazh" 7-10

is it not enough ?
