[Guest guest]

ANDAL'S ENVY CONCH'S PRIDE

 

It was seen in the preceding posting that contemporary entities in the

world were not recognised but for pAnchajanyam. This set the conch a

class apart from others.- innAr iNaiyAr enRu eNNuvAr illai kAN.

 

Sleeping When? It is said that even for disciples the post-food

tiredness sets in. Likewise, the conch takes food from the Lord's

divine mouth and sleeps in His divine hand. What a bed? Oh!

pAnchajanyamE!. You are indeed the king of conches -sanku+araiyA akin

to puL araiyA. Indeed Your wealth is beautiful, extremely elegant.

 

What is your food= The Lord's divine nectar from the mouth = vulagaLandhAn vAyamudham;

What is your bed? the Lord's divine hand = kadal vaNNan kai thalathE.

The women-folk are sour with you.Why? bhagwadh vishayam should be enjoyed and experiened together.

AlAs! you are enjoying it alone. Is it not a cause for grievance?

"peN padaiyAr vun mEal perum pUsal sARRuginRAr.." 7-8

 

 

The next pAsuram further highlights this point. "kUdiyirundhu kuLira

vENum" is the basic postulate of srEvaishNavism.

However, you are defying this principle, pAnchanyamE is the prime premise of this pAsuram

"padhinAr Ayiram dhEvimAr pArthiruppa,

madhu vAyil koNdAR pOle mAdhavan than

vAyamudham, podhuvAga vuNbadhanai pukku nE

vuNdakkAl, sedhaiyArO vunnOdu, selvapperunj changEa" 7-10 of nAchiyAr thiru mozhi

 

All the krishNan's rightful womenfolk are looking for an opportunity

to grab the Lord's divine amudham- mAdhavan than vAi amudham- You are

a spoilsport. Is it fair for one person to snatch the food of all

others? Can a common food to be shared by one and all be devoured by

one and only one? But you have done this.

What a wealth?-selvap perunjchangE;

 

thus the elaborate discussio on the pAchajanyam is precisely desribed

in this seventh padhigam of nAchiyAr thiru mzohi.

 

is it not enough to say andAL's envy- conch's pride; AndAL's

envy-AndAL's pride "yEindha perum pugazh" 7-10

 

is it not enough ?
