thiur voi mozhi nURRandhAdhi

 

"poliga poliga enRu pUmagaL kOne thondar

malivu thanaik kaNdugandhu vAzhthi, vulagil

thirundhAdhAr thammai thiruthiya mARan sol,

marundhAgap pOgum mana mAsu" 42

 

 

1.The pAsuram commences with the term "poliga" which is the first word

of the padhigam of thiru voi mozhi "poliga poliga poliga" 5-2 and

this pAsuram also commences with the term.

 

2.This pAsuram is representative of the thiru voi mozhi 5-2 of thiru

voi mozhi "poliga poliga poliga". There all the souls of the world

become the devotees of Lord srEman nArAyaNA following swAmi nam

AzhwAr's counsel. On seeing this AzhwAr becomes extremely satisfied

and this thiru voi mozhi emerges. He blesses this utopian situation

with the words -poliga, poliga, poliga. These are clear from the

fifth pAsuram

'aiyam onRillai, arakkar asurar piRandhEr vuLLErEal.." . No doubt,

there is no way for demons to survive-if there are any. The tenth

pAsuram reiterates this point -thokka amarar kuzhAngaL engum

parandhana thondEr.

 

The same fact is expressed here in this pAsuram. The terms"pUmagaL

kOne thondar malivu thanaik kaNdugandhu vAzhthi" indicates the vast

srEvaishNavite clan extant at that time.

The words 'poliga' and 'vAzhthi' expresses the happiness.

 

3. Both the pAsuram and the padhigam concludes with the word 'mAsu'

which is the beginning of the next padhigam 'mAsu aRu" 5-3 of thiru

voi mozhi.

 

4. thiruthi mARAn sol -marundhAgap pOgum mana mAsu - is the reverence to swAmi nam AZhwAr.
