Thiruvaaimozhi 6.5- You have lost her; She has gone beyond our reach!

[Guest guest]

SrI:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

AzhwAr, in his last decad, 6.4, described about Emperumaan and His

guNAs. Now this decad is based on the nAyikA bhAvam. This ten is based

as if it is ParAngusanAyaki's friend speaks to the mother that she

(ParangusanAyaki) is gone for ever. She has fallen for the lord of

Tholaivillimangalam and His beauty/guNAs. Don't try to advise her

against what she is upto. It is impossible for her to listen to you and

do anything other than involving herself on the Lord. It is even better

for you, mothers, to follow her way instead (for your own benefits and

redemption). (yet another excellent set from our Greatest Deatest "our

AzhwAr" ! Enjoy!)

 

1. Oh Mothers! (Why is this plural? - I was wondering. May be, AzhwAr is

such a gifted blessed child, that the entire Thirukkurugoor feels that

He is their dearest son.) This girl has fallen in love with

Thirutholaivillimangalam Divya dEsasthalam and the Lord of that sthalam.

Right since that separation from Him, she has been paying obeisance to

that Lord with folden hands. There are many huge halls with emerald

stones impregnated on the walls. She is unable to take her eyes off from

those beautiful walls. Having reached that stage, you can not get her

back. Don't have that desire to change her now. She is beyond all of

that. (Please do not interrupt her enjoyment of such blissful beauty of

the Lord). Look at her! She has been weeping and sobbing heavily with

tears rolling down her cheeks continuously, saying "white Sanghu",

ChakrA, Red Lotus Eyes etc., and keep thinking of Him only. (here in ths

pAsuram, when AzhwAr writes "tholaivilli mangalam thozhum" means: paying

obeisance to tholaivillimangalam with folded hands, he refers to sarIram

(body). Sanghu, chakrA- like that uttering continuously, AzhwAr refers

to vaak (saying). When AzhwAr mentions crying sobbing and with tears,

thinking of the Lord- he refers to manam (mind).)

 

2. Tholaivillimangalam is filled always with various musical sounds and

sounds of vedic hymns. The One who speaks like a nectar about the Lord,

you all have taken her away from that place. Now she has been thinking

of that Lord only. You all can not think of getting her back at all.

There is no use i dsuch desires. She is standing like a statue (unable

eo even enjoy the Bhagavadh vishyam that needs to be enjoyed.) She is

also behaving like a paripoorNa jnAni. When she talks she says "Deva

dEva piraan" and she sobs with a twisted mouth and full of tears in her

eyes, her heart melting and longing deeply for Him.

 

3. The fertile banks of river ThaamirabharaNi is even eroded by the

beautiful gardens and trees of Tholaivillimangalam Divya dEsam and it is

so exquisitely beautiful. This girl of yours has left you and taken

shelter at this sthalam. The whole world is praisinh her actions and her

(spritual) ecstatic talks and you are NOT ONLY not enjoying her ecstasy

but also tries to prevent her from doing the same. In the process, she

has no attachment to you and you yourself have made her go away from

you. Now, her deisre for Emperumaan has increased tremendously and she

has been melting talking about Him, the DevadEva piraan. She is

narrating the Beauty of His lying down so gracefully on ThiruppaaRkadal

(Milk Ocean), the way He measured the whole Universe and all directions

in one step, the way He performed the leelAsduring KrishNAvataar, - all

that she has been talking about with full of tears with Great

mahAnubhavam, with her heart melting with much ecstasy.

 

4. Thirutholaivillimangalam is a Divya sthalam, which is always filled

with the Divine recitation sound of Vedic hymns and such Vedic scholars

reside there. After seeing that Divya dEsam, she has lost her feminine

quality of shyness ("naaNam") completely. It is just not possible for us

to tell some hitham and advise her; she has gone beyond all that. All

her talks are always on the names of The Black Beauty, The Dark, Blue

hued, Ocean colour, KaNNan only. She calls Him Piraan due to her being

allured by the Beauty of His Divya ThirumEni (Body). With signs of no

exretion, she has been telling His names and gets moved greatly doing

that. (She does not have shyness nor embarassment that she is showing

her love for Him in front of her mother). Her body gets weak thinking of

KaNNan so lovingly.

 

5. She has got soft, tender, smooth beautiful face. She had so much love

for the Lord and you all showed this Divya dEsam; she is now trapped in

His beauty of this Divya Desam sthalam. Oh Mother! Hence, you have

already lost her. She is always on thoughts about Him only. She has lost

herself in His beauty. He shines so brightly and beautifully much above

the quantum of lustre of His ornaments (due to His own shining Body).

>From the day she saw His such Great shining Beauty, her tears are

flowing down the cheeks like rains. She keeps looking at that direction

where Devapiraan is there and is paying obeisance to Him, with her mind

lost in Him and His guNAs completely.

 

6. Thirutholaivillimangalam is at the north bank of the river

ThaamirabharaNi. Wherever you see, there are only plants of sugarcane,

fields of paddy, all trying to compete with each other in their growth.

It is so fertile. Oh Mother! This girl is looking at no other place but

Tholaivillimnagalm only. At all time, uniterruptedly, she has been

uttering that MaNivaNNan's Thirunaamams (Divine names) only that signify

His Beauty and GuNAs.

 

7. Oh Mother! Did you see her? When we taught her little words and small

easy names (of the Lord) she couyld not even pronounce them properly;

she was so young, little, girl. Now she has overtaken all of us; She is

beyond our reach. This beautiful girl, whose beauty is like that of deer

and the peacock, is just capable of hearing only "tholaivillimangalam"

and nothing else. Is it due to her puNyams accrued from her past births?

Or is it His yet another leelA? I do not know. Now all that she know is

to talk perennially and correctly the symbols and names of the Lord of

Tholivillimangalam. ("avan chinnamum thirunaamamum"- 1. Emperumaan's

snghu and chakrA are referred to as the symbols (chinnam); 2.

Thirunaamam (name): The Lord's names like Aravindha lOchanan, DevadEva

piraan. NampiLLai enjoys as: When AzhwAr utters the names and symbols,

they get more benefitted and more sacred! like a. When Bhattar called

Sri RanganAthA, "Azhagiya MaNavaaLa Perumaan" He got benefitted. b. Sri

RamanujA was called by SomAjiaaNdaan as Emeprumaanaar, that name got

benefitted. c.Ananthaazhwaan used to call Sri VenkatEsa as

"ThiruvEnkadamudaiyaan". What an anubhavam of NampiLLai!

 

8. Tholaivillimangalam- Since the place, located at the northern bank of

river ThaamirabharaNi, is filled entirely with the reverberating Vedic

hymns and continuous performances of Yaaghams, there was huge wealth and

fertility. This large black eyed beautiful girl, is looking at that

Divya dEsam aways with folded hands, and is calling the Lord's name as

"Aravindha lOchanA!" and melts uttering that name with great ecstasy and

enjoyment. (Aravindha lOchanan- Lotus eyed Lord- ThaamaraikkaNNan.

Tholaivillimanagala perumaaL's name is also AravindhalOchanan.)

 

9. This girl, everyday, is sobbing and weeping continuously with great

Bhakti and longing for the Lord- with the mouth stuttering and

stammering due to her emotional anubhavam and suffering; the eys welled

with tears; even the trees pitying this girl's emotional sufferings,-

She is calling the Lord with loud voice, "MaNivaNNA!". This lord of

Tholaivillimangalam is the One who killed the kesi (asurA, who came as a

horse to kill KaNNan). She keeps uttering Tholaivillimangalam,

Tholaivillimangalam, and she pays obeisance to that stalam by looking

continuously in that directions, with folded hands, plams glued to each

other, offering shraddhaanjali. Didn't she get this only after she came

to know about this sthalam?

(When Embaar was asked as to how the trees can pity ParaangusanAyaki's

emtional suffering and languishing, Embaar replied: We, great sinners-

the ones who do not even carry out yamam, niyamam, etc., and are

digressing away from saastraas, are able to get moved to such an extent

rreciting AzhwAr's pAsurams and his (her?)feelings, is it not possible

for a tree that lived during his time to experience what AzhwAr says or

feels?. Dearest sisters and brothers, A Great anubhavam of Embaar! -

NampiLLai has said that even achEthanAs like the tree gets moved - we

need not say about chEthanAs; naturally all those who lived at

Thirukkurugoor would have enjoyed and experienced the same. LUCKY

PEOEPLE! AzhwAr becomes the father and mother to the entite Kurugoor to

lead them and help them experience the way he does! - That is why

MadhurakaviAzhwAr calls NammAzhwAr as "annaiyaay atthanaay...." (mother

and father to him).

 

10. (When we see her experiencing and longing for Him to such an

extent, we even get a doubt if she is one of Piraatis Herself?). Is she

Nappinaai Piraatti Herself? Or BhUmipiraatti? Or going across such mad

love after the Lord! Is she Periya Piraatti Herself? This is a great

wonder! She calls Him as Nediyaa maalE! (Oh Big, VishNU!) And He stays

permanently at Tholaivillimangalam, listening to her call and obeying

her order. She prostrates at this sthalam with her head touching the

ground. When she loves to hear the name of this sthlam.

 

11. Considering DevadEvapiraan as his mother, father, AzhwAr sang 1000

pAsurams, with his manas, vaak, and kaayam (mind, words and

body(actions)), as means. Out of those 1000, the readers of these ten

will DEFINITELY GET TO SERVE LORD VISHNU AS ETERNAL SERVANTS OF SRI

VAIKUNTAM. (here, two meanings are interpreted by AchAryAs: 1. AzhwAr,

the person from Thirukkurugoor, considered Deva Devapiraan as mother and

father and sang these pAsuams. 2. AzhwAr, the mother and father of

Thirukurugoor people, sang these pAsurams on Deva dEva piraan. IN FACT,

THE SECOND ONE IS MORE CORRECT AND APPROPRIATE. AhzwAr is so great!.

After all, He is Our AzhwAr! NammAzhwAr!)
