Guest guest Posted May 8, 2001 Report Share Posted May 8, 2001 Dear BhaktAs, I came across this recently and wanted to share it with everyone and also get your additional insights. In presenting dvayArttham, Sri PiLLailOkAchAryar talks about six kalyANa guNAs of emperumAn that rise to save a devotee. They are vAtsalyam, swAmitvam, sauseelyam, saulabhyam, gnyAnam and Sakti. These are included by SwAmi NammAzhvAr in his SaranAgati pasuram "agalakillEn". agala killEn iRaiyumenRalarmEl mangai uRaimaar_paa nigaril pugazhaay ulagamoonRudaiyaay ennai aaLvaanE nigaril amarar munikkaNangaL virumpum thiruvENGkadaththaanE pugalon Rillaa adiyEnun adikkeezhamarndhu pugundhEnE AzhvAr has included the six guNAs as follows. nigaril pugazhaay = vAtsalyam ulagamoonRudaiyaay = swAmitvam ennai aaLvaanE = sauseelyam thiruvENGkadaththaanE = saulabhyam amarar virumpum = Sakti muni virumpum = gnyAnam Yet again, I was amazed! What tremedous information AzhvAr has given us in such simple and elegant words. As our AchAryAs state, the gem that is AzhvAr's Sri Sookthi, presents a different light every time it is looked at and every angle that it is looked at. Of course, it takes an expert jeweller (our AchAryAs) to show them to us (and to show us the light). adiyEn madhurakavi dAsan T.C.A.
