AchArya Hrdhaym-sUthram 212 contd.

 

The thiru-virutham and thiru-voi-mozhi first pAsuram-s contain in

them the following points also:

 

rakshaNa kramam:

thiru -virutham: 'vuyir aLippAn en ninRa yOniumAi piRandhAi' ---> The

Lord Himself takes up the task of incarnations and protects the

devotees.

thiru-voi-mozhi: ' mayaRvu aRa mathi nalam aruLinan' ----> The Lord

out of His mercy grants immense knowledge which drives out the

ignorance-illiteracy and also bequeaths the requisite grasp of

education for attaining knowledge -gnAnam- and love and affection

towards the Lord -bhakthi.

 

guna vigraha vibhUdhi yOgam:

 

thiru-virutham- 'imaiyOr thalaivA' referring to the Lord's

supremacy over the World is highlighted.

'imayOr' alludes to Lord's attachment towards

nithya-sUrigaL.

thiru-voi-mozhi: 'vuyarvaRa vuyar nalam' straightaway pointing at

His endless auspicious qualities.

and ' thuyar aRu sudar adi' alluding to His divine

physique-thiru-mEani.

 

Thus, the Lord's qualities, physique, attachment toward the devoees,

ownership of the whole world are all underlined here.

 

upadEsa vishayam: AzhwAr's mind, the Lord and those who are prepared

to listen and follow AzhwAr are the recepient and subject matter of

the preaching.

thiru-virutham: " ninRu kEttaRuLAi" requesting the Lord to listen

to AzhwAr's request.-viNNappam.

thiru-voi-mozhi: " thozhudhu ezhu en mananE" indicating that the

mind of the Azhwar is the recepient of the words of wisdom.
