Periya Thirumozhi 4.1- "kaaraandha thirumEni KaNNan amardhu uRaiyum idam.."

[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

Emperumaan- the One to whom brahmins offered their salutations(3.9) and

surrendered saying "Hari! We surrender to Your Lotus Feet", at arimEya

viNNaragam, is here at ThirutthEvanaar thogai in as much as He is present

at ThiruupaaRkadal (Milk Ocean) at all times-says AzhwAr.

 

1. Sriya: Pathi- Madhavan's permanent residence is this Thirunaangoor

ThirutthEvanaar thogai, situated on the southern banks of well spread river

MaNNi. The flowers that bloom at the correct season, in a dense manner are

collected by this river's noisy waves to the fields at the shores, where the

bees sing "thEthhu"... (sort of humming).

 

2. (an excellent Pasuram!) "yaavaiyumaay yaavarumaay yezhil

vEdhap poruLgaLumaay/ moovarumaay mudhalaaya moortthi

amarndhu uRaiyum idam.."- Chethanas, achEthanas (being,

non-being)- everything's cause is He; the essence and content of

Vedas is He; He is the One who is the Trinity for creation,

destruction and protection and is the antharyaami for Brahma and

Sivan- He stays at ThirutthEvanaar thogai at all times. This place is

where people have conquered even kings, (who hold strong battle

weapons, and who fight riding on the horses); where Devas come

to pay obeisance to this Lord; where, there are dense gardens found

everywhere.

 

3. "vaaNaadum maNNaadum maRRumuLLa palluyirum/

thaanaaya emperumaan thalaivan amarndhu uRaiyumidam"

Parampadham, the earth below, the lives that live in all other words

even, - are all His property; He is such Greatest Lord; - that

SarvEshawaran resides at ThirutthEvanaar thogai, where the

rich (with bhakti) brahmins live; where there are lovely gardens

with fresh fragrant honey dripping flowers bloom in large numbers.

 

4. "indranum, imaiyavarum, munivargaLum, yezhilamaindha/

chandhamalarch chathurmukhanum, kadhiravanum, chandranum/

"enthai enakku aruL" yena, ninRu aruLum idam..."

DevEndran, other Devas, sanakaadhi rishis, Brahma (one who is

blessed to have learnt all Vedas, born of Lotus), Sooryan (Sun),

Moon, et al, appeal to Him with folded hands "Oh our father!

Please bless us". and SarvEshwaran heeds to their request

and is present at ThirutthEvanaar thogai to bless them. It is

a beautiful place with lots of gardens.

 

5. "anDamum, alai kadalum, avanigaLum, kulavaraiyum/

uNda piraan uRaiyum idam..." The Universe, the wavy Oceans,

the jambhudhveepam (earth and other planets), the mountains,

etc.. were all simply swallowed by Him (during Cosmic cycle) in

order to protect them; Such Most Merciful, upakaarakan- is here

at ThirutthEvanaar thogai, where most valuable stones/gems

like Diamond, golden particles and sandal, agil, are all collected

or swept aside by the noisy waves of the river maNNi; where

strong people reside.

 

6. (Beautiful!) "jnAlamellam amudhu seydhu naanmaRaiyum

thodaraadha / Baalakanaay aalilaiyil paLLikoLLum paraman

idam.."As a small Boy, He swallowed the whole Universe, and

reclined on the Banyan leaf- such Greatest Sarvaadhikan-

SarvEshwaran - can not be described in full, even by the greatest

of Great proofs (pramaaNams), i.e. four Vedas- Such Most

Wonderful Lord resides (such a sowlabhyan is He!) at

ThirutthEvanaar thogai, where there are densely grown

red paddy fields, (in which fishes jump hither and thither),

on the southern banks of river MaNNi.

 

7. "odaadha vaaLairiyin uruvaagi hiraNyanai/ vaadaadha

vaadaadha vaLLugiraal piLandhanaindha maaladhidam.."

The impossible (phenomenon of) Lion faced Human form,

Lord Narasinghan, appeared (to adhere to Brahma's boon

conditions in toto), and tore the chest of hiraNyan with His

straight, sharp, nails. Such Most strongest Lord resides at

this sthlam of ThirutthEvanaar thogai, where it is required

to only write down volumes of books about the wealth of

the residents of this place; where gardens surround the whole

place with lots of fresh flowers..

 

8. "vaaraarum iLa~nkongai maithiliyai maNam puNarvaan/

kaaraarthiN chilaiiRuttha thanikaaLai karudhumidam.."

In order to marry Maithili (the princess of Mithilaa), the most

feminine and Beautiful One, the unparalleled Chakravartthi Thirumagan, Sri

Raman broke the most strongest bow effortlessly. Such Greatest Lord,

SarvEshawaran resides at this sthalam of

ThirutthEvanaar thogai, where people (of great unbounded

immeasurable wealth and those who recite Vedas, stay; where

the place is full of gardens with beautiful flowers .

 

9. "kumbhamigu mathayaanaip paaganodu kulaindhuveezhak/

koMbhadhanaip paRitthu yeRindha kootthan amarhdu uRaiyum idam.." With large

head, the strong Kuvalayaapeetam elephant, along

with its mahout were made to fall on the ground dead by Lord

KaNNan,(the dancer), when He broke the tusks of the strong elephant

effortlessly. Such Strongest Lord resides at this sthalam of

ThirutthEvanaar thogai, where the most fragrant seNbhaga

flowers bloom; where the red golden ramparts surround the whole

place.

 

10. "kaaraandha thirumEni KaNNan amardhu uRaiyum idam.."

The Most Beautiful dark hued, cloud coloured (in Divine form)

KaNNan, most willingly resides permanently at this sthalam

of ThirutthEvanaar thogai, which is surrounded by beautiful

gardens. About this, Thirumangai AzhwAr sang this ten, and those

who recite them, will be BLESSED TO STAY ALONG WITH

NITHYARS AT SRI VAIKUNTAM.
