Periya Thirumozhi 7.4- "thEn ooRi yeppozhudhum thitthikkummaRE!"

[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

BhAgawathas are the life breath of Bhagawaan. Here is this ten,

ThirumangaiAzhwAr declares that BhAgawathAs, who enjoy and immerse

themselves in kalyANa guNAs of Emperumaan are his chiefs- his masters.

 

1. The BhAghawathAs- who praise Emperumaan as “Oh Chief of Nithyasooris! Oh

baby –infant Kutti KaNNan! - sucking the breast milk along with the life of

Poothanai and made her fall flat and dead.. on the ground with red fiery

eyes wide open, and blood flooding the whole area.. !” These Bhagawathas pay

their obeisance to ThirucchERai Emperumaan – where the tall beautiful

buildings tear open the belly of the cool moon. Look at these BhAgawathAs

walking , placing their Thiruvadis on my head! (means: I am ready to have

their Feet on my head.. they are my masters.)

 

2. Emperumaan – the One who threw the calf as a stick to a viLAmpazha tree

(for getting the fruits dropped down) and killed the asuran; who has in huge

mountain like Divine Chest, the most beautiful, most compassionate, large

eyed, Periya PiraaTTi, born of red lotus flower. This Emperumaan stays

permanently at ThirucchERai, where the cool fragrant gardens (appear to)

touch the sky even. Those devotees who pay their obeisance to Emperumaan’s

Feet at this sthalam are staying in adiyEn’s heart always.

 

3. BhAgawathAs assemble together and praise Him as “Oh RamA! The One having

the resplendent hands that cut the creeper like nose and the ear of rAkshasi

SoorpaNakA, (who has the shining sharp teeth and has the cruel, fearsome

form that makes those who see her run away shivering..)” . They pay their

obeisance to ThirucchERai Emperumaan’s Lotus Feet by offering and theertham

(pure water) and flowers and partake them. These puNyAthmAs- BhAgawathAs are

greater than even Nithyasooris.

 

4. BhAgawathAs, praise Emperumaan as “RamA! The One who sent the arrows from

His divine Bow so victoriously to the strong rAvaNan of lankA!” They come

to ThirucchERai Divya Desam and pay their respects and obeisacne to

Emperumaan at this sthalam, (who rules both worlds from here, who has huge

mountain like Chest, that adorns the thuLasi maalai), by uttering his Divine

name daily.. I will never be able to separate myself from these greatest

BhAgawathAs even for a fraction of a second. (“pErALan pEr Odhum periyaarai

orukaalum pirigilEnE..”)

 

5. BhAgawathAs, who assertively declrae saying “I am not andd wwill never

belong and associate myself to those Jains, who are dirty (in their bodies

thinking that purifying will kill germs), and Buddhists (who talk and argue

against Vedas), - I am the property and belong to Emperumaan, who appeared

as the unparalleled unique Naraisimham, and tore HiraNyan, the strong one, -

my PerumAL who is the cause and creator of the Universe.. “, - come to

ThirucchERai Divya Desam and mediate daily the Lotus Feet of This Emperumaan

of ThirucchERai. My heart soaks as honey on the graetness of these

BhAgawathAs.. and it (thinking of them) is so sweet for me. (“Emperumaan

thaaLai naaLum sindhippaarkku ennuLLam thEn ooRi yeppozhudhum

thitthikkumE..”)

 

6. “Oh Huge Vaarahamoorthy, the One who brought back the Earth from the

“troubled waters”! “ I address Emperumaan like this and say “I am Your

eternal servant; Your Lotus Feet alone is our Rakshakam; There is nothing

else, that can protect me” … BhAgawathAs- who enjoy the Divine Beauty of

ThirucchERai Emperumaan – are so pleasing to adiyEn’s eyes. Look at my heart

andd my eyes beaming with joy! (“kaaNeer! En nenjum kaNNiNaiyum

kaLikkumaaRE!”)

 

7. adiyEn address daily Emperumaan “Oh Lord! the One who reclines on

ThiruvanathAzhwAn on the ThiruppARkadal! Oh Most wonderful, Blue Hued, most

compassionate EmperumaanE! “- I am blessed with the theought of ThirucchERai

Emperumaan. He has enslaved me and ruled me completely my five senses and my

jnAnEndriyAs. My heart longs and is in love with those BhAgawathAsd, who

have become the servants of this Emperumaan.

 

8. Emperumaan of ThirucchERai- who is worshipped even by the Nithya sooris

of Paramapadham, who has tender sweet Lotus Feet, which is so easily

accessible for the whole world; - is enjoyed by looking at Him and anjali

with their both hands whole-heartedely with full Anandham by BhAgawathAs.

Just a mere thought (in reverence) of these BhAgawathAs, - will have Yaman

stay away from us; He will not torture us; Our paapams (sins) will never

come near us. (“kaNNaarak kaNdu urugik kaiyaarath thozhuvaaraik

karudhu~nkaalE”)

 

9. Look at my mind getting completely lost, melting and haunted by immersing

itself with thoughts on BhAgawathAs- who mediate on the Lotus Feet of the

most beautiful, most fertile ThirucchERai Emperumaan daily.. How did I get

this blessing? I, who consider adiyEn’s athmA (jIvAthmA) as mine- I am the

thief, who has stolen His property; I am the most cruel person (for having

known this and still not returend this AthmA that belongs to Him); Hence, I

am fully trapped in the worst samsaaric ocean (full of sorrows) always-

still, am I blessed with this great thought of these BhAgawathAs? (How

come!)

 

10. This ten is on Emperumaan of ThirucchERai. It is sung by Kaliyan. Oh

BhakthAs (who sing these songs of Emperumaan!). Pay obeisance to this

pristinely purest Emperumaan with your anjali with folded hands..at His

Divine golden Lotus Feet!
