Guest guest Posted February 10, 1999 Report Share Posted February 10, 1999 Sri ANDAL thiruvadikaLE saraNam nArAyaNaNE namakkE paRai tharuvAn. thirup pAvai - part 59 - "udaiyavaNE tharuvAn, kattAyam tharuvAn" Dear bAgawathAs, The word nArAyaNaNE at the beginning with an EkAram when combined gives meaning that avanE tharuvAn, ie the Lord will HIMself give us the palans of this nOnbu. We donot have to remind HIM. prapatthi yAvathu oruvan prapatthi seythu vittEn eNRa ennatthiayum vittu vidugai. This is an allusion to the final phase of prapatti known as "Athma samarppanam". As put by 45 th Jeer, one has to do the Athma samarpanam by way of saranagathi. Doing other kaimkaryams is like giving perks to someone when we have not repaid our main loan. ie., The Athman or our soul belongs to HIM. We have borrowed it and are enjoying it. We have to surrender it prior to doing any kaimkaryam for such kaimkaryam to be meaningful. Sri Utthamoor Swami narrates in his vyAkyAnam the Lord's swayam nature as the implied meaning for tharuvAn. It is said that the Lord will feel that 'We are supposed to have given them the blessings even prior to their asking. It is our bound duty to protect our belonging. We have unnecessarily delayed and waited untill they ask. We should not have waited so long. We must now rush and make up for all". Thus by feeling so, it seems Lord will feel like fish our of water with a "thavippu" and will give the palan ATONCE. HE has the natural instinct and HIS own responsibility or bAram in HIM as HIS innate quality. tharuvAn also means that we cannot do any kaimkaryam and that HE has to give us. No sincere sishyAL will ask to a leader that he ort she wants to do this or that. They will wait for their boss to delegate certain task to them. Waiting for such an order from the chief denotes the complete obedience as kinkarAL or kaimkarya barAL. Sri Srinivasa iyengar quotes that It seems ilaya perumAL used to tell "kriyAthAmithi mAm vatha" ie., Do this and do that and do such and such. It seems IlayaperumAl awaits the command of is elder brother and Lord Sri Rama all the time to execute such. HSri Srinivasa iyengar also has quoted from our AzhwAr as "Eva maRRamara'AtseyvAr". That is, HE will command us and will rule us.
