Periya Thirumozhi 1.8- Infant KaNNan learned to stand up at TirumalA!

[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

ThirumangaiAzhwAr after his anubhavam on SingavEL kunRam, was called by

the Lord "AzhwArE! Why are you exerting yourself at SingavEL kunRam

calling the Divya dEsam :"deivam allaal sella voNNaa SingavEL kunRam"

(other than DevAs, none can access this sthalam) in the last ten?. Not

to worry. Here in ThiruvEmkatam, I am showing myself so easily

accessible for everyone. Come and be blessed! Let us go to TirumalA

along with AzhwAr.

 

1. ThiruvEmkatamudaiyaan Sri Srinivasan is none other than

KsheeraabhdhinAthan and KaNNan. GopAlan- the One who befell the fragrant

Kurundha tree- My Master- The Red Lotus eyed Beautiful Lord-

Pundareekaakshan- The One who is having His YoganithrA on the Milk

Ocean- The One who conquered pakAsuran- Sriman Narayanan is showing

Himself so gracefully at this sthalam, ThiruvEmkatam, where lovely

fishes jump with joy in beautiful ponds.

 

2. KaNNan- the One who sucked the poisonous breast and sucked puthnai’s

life making her cry with pain and die; He is in a reclining posture at

Thiruvara~ngam (Srirangam) and ThiruppARkadal. He has grown at

ThiruvEmkatam (ThirumalA); The realised sages (j~nAnis) have described

Him and praised calling Him daily as "veLLiyaan (Silvery Lord!),

Kariyaan (Dark hued Beauty!), Neela MaNivaNNan (Blue hued Emerald like

Beauty!). Such Greatest Most Beautiful Sowlabhyan is here at

ThiruvEmkatam. Oh mind! Go and reach this sthalam. (Here AzhwAr says

"piLLaiyaay uyiruNda enthai piraan avan perugum idam"- means: My Father-

My Lord- The One who sucked the life as an infant KaNNan- is growing

here (at ThirumalA!). Periya vaacchaan PiLLai says "thottil piLLai pEy

uyiruNda pinbhu niRka kaRRadhu Thirumalaiyil" means: The child that was

put in the cradle, after sucking the rAkshasi’s life, has learnt to

stand only at ThirumalA."- What an anubhavam!)

 

3. The One who learnt His charming steps, breaking even the Marudha

trees(while doing so), The Purest Lord- The One who has the Divine Conch

in His Hand- The One whose Lotus Feet is always worshipped with great

devotion by DevAs and Nithyasooris- The One who saved and protected the

suffering and lives of cattle by lifting the mountain of Govardhanam

effortlessly as an umbrella from torrential heavy down pour by Indran-

My Perumaan- is here at ThiruvEmkatam. Oh mind! Reach there.

 

4. ThiruvEmkatamudaiyaan is Sri Parthasarathy Himself. The One who drove

the chariot for Arjunan, presided (sort of) the MahAbhAratha

KurukshEthra battle, and (enabled pANdavAs) win the battle- the One who

dances with cowherd girls- the One who stays in the heart of His

devotees who think of Him and meditate on Him- the One who shows Himself

at Thiruvidaventhai- the Para~nchudar- the JyOthI- Emperumaan – is here

at Most beautiful ThiruvEmkata mountain. Oh mind! Reach there.

 

5. The One who appeared as the young Brahmachari dwarf boy and begged

mahAbhali with His small Hands (for the whole universe ultimately)- the

One who appeared as Sri Raman and sent the arrow through seven trees

(saala vruksham) at a stretch- the One who lives in

Thirumaaliru~nchOlai- the One removed the sorrow of GajEndran elephant

and granted mOksham to the animal- is showing Himself at ThiruvEmkatam.

Oh mind! Reach there.

 

6. ThiruvEmkatamudaiyaan is the One who ate the whole Universe. The One

who (once), in order to protect the seven directions, seven worlds

during mahApraLayam (Cosmic cycle), ate them and retained them in His

stomach and lied down on a small Banyan leaf- the One who removed the

sorrow of the white moon (can someone explain the sorrow of moon that

was removed by the Lord?)- the One who appeared as Narasimhan (Lion

faced Lord) and tore the chest of hiraNyan with sharp nails to kill him-

Such Greatest Emperumaan is at ThiruvEmkatam mountain. Oh mind! Reach

there.

 

7. The Lord is The Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space (five elements of

Nature)- has thousand Divine Names- is NOT bounded by KarmAs; - Such

Greatest Lord- Emperumaan is growing here at ThiruvEmkatam, the top of

which is hugged by clouds, the snowy droplets falling from the sky,

where the clouds land up and take rest on top of this mountain, where

fertile gardens surround the lovely ThiruvEmkatam. Oh mind! Reach

there.

 

8. He is in the Pancha bhUthams (the five elements of Nature)- He is the

Chief of DevAs- He is the Nayakan of Periya PiraaTTi- MahAlakshmi- He is

My Emperumaan- staying at ThiruvEmkatam, the most beautiful fertile

land, where gypsy women take care of the field. Oh mind! Reach there.

 

9. Emperumaan- The One who protects and saves from their Birth cycles,

those who utter Parama bhOgya, most Divine Thiru ashtaakshara manthram

always- stays at ThiruvEmkatam which is fully surrounded by the lovely

gardens full of most fragrant flowers, which is standing like the

Thilakam (pinnacle- Zenith- the Highest point) of all worlds. Oh mind!

Reach here! (here AzhwAr says in the first line "pEsumin Thirunaamam

ettezhutthum solli" – means: Utter! (pEsumin) the most divine

Ashtaaksharam; it is also to be read as "pEsum in Thirunaamam" – means:

Utter (pEsum) the sweetest to the tongues of those who utter (in)

Thirunaamam ettezhutthum – (ashtaaksharam)).

 

10. The Lord of ThiruvEmatam, which is surrounded by the most beautiful

ponds where the red charming fishes swim, jump and play, is here showing

Himself so gracefully at this sthalam and Thirumangai nagar Kaliyan has

sung these ten pAsurams about this Emperumaan of ThiruvEmkatam. Those

who read these ten (or their meanings) sweet garland of Tamil words

realising the glory of ThiruvEmakatam Emperumaan, with not an iota of

doubt and with mahAviswAsam on Emperumaan, ARE SURE to reach

Paramapadham after ruling this world.
