Meaning of the Paasuram according to Dr.K.C.Varadachary
**************************************************************
Fragrant lotuses have bloomed ! The Sun has risen above
'the roaring waters of the eastern sea ! Slender-waisted
ladies having bathed in the river , rinsed and shaken off
the water from their tresses (and tied them up) , and wearing
their clothes have got up the banks of the river KaavEri . Oh Sri RanganAthA
, grit by KaavEri river , who have accepted me ,
the rejoicer in the dust of the feet of Thy devotees
(ThoNDaradippodi) , carrying in his hands the TuLasi garland
as fit object of Thy love , wake up to bless Thy devotees.
Additional Comments
************************
The signs of early morning are indicated by the blossoming of
the sweet smelling lotus flowers ( Kadi Malar kamalangaL
malarnthana ) ; The Sun has risen over the eastern sea ,
which is restless (Kathiravan kanai kadal muLaitthanan) .
Oh Lord of Srirangam , the slender-waisted ladies in pursuit of
their Sthree dharmam have completed their morning snAnam
and are about to go home after rinsing , drying their clothes
and tresses ( Thudi idayAr suri kuzhal pizhinthu uthari
tuhil udutthu yERinar ).
At this blessed morning , Oh RanganAthA , Here is my humble
prayer to You . " Oh Lord of Srirangam ! Please wake up and
make me , Your humble devotee , be ever keen on doing
the service to Your ardent worshippers . Let me submit that
I am Your devotee named ThoNDaradippodi ( One who rejoices
in besmearing his whole body with the dust of the feet of Your
devotees) whose shining shoulders always hold the flower basket
with garlands of TuLasi leaves ( and other sacred flowers) fit
enough to be worn and adorned by You ".
AzhwAr's prayer is " UnnadiyArkku aatpadutthAi " .
Please make me the servant of Your BhagavathAs .
AzhwAr is begging for the boon of BhAgavatha Seshathvam ,
which is the boundary of Bhagavath sEshathvam.
The Naamaangitham of ThoNDaradippodi is the same as in
ThiruppaLLiyezucchi is very similar to the one in ThirumAlai .
AzhwAr describes himself as : " Thodaiottha thuLavamum
koodayum polinthu , ThOnRiya thOL ThoNDaradippodi " in
ThiruppaLLiyezucchi's final paasuram . In ThirumAlai's
paasuram , he signs off as " ThuLavat-thoNDaaya thol seert-
ThoNDaradippodi soll " . AzhwAr identifies himself as
a ThuLasi Kaimkarya Parar and MaalaakArar to the Lord of
Srirangam and begs the Lord to make him a daasan of the Lord's
BhAgavathAs. AzhwAr asks the Lord to wake up and bless him
to have that boon.
