AchArya hrdhayam sUthram 219

 

This suthram deals at length, the first ten of thiru-voi-mozhi -mudhal pathu.

 

Summary:

 

The macro-level-experience of AzhwAr in the first ten-mudhal pathu

 

1.The Lord who is supreme out of His immense vouluntary Grace removed

the lack of knowledge, ignorance etc. and granted complete knowledge

(gnAnam) to AzhwAr;

 

2.The Lord then settled down in AzhwAr's mind which enabled AzhwAr to

enjoy the qualities of the Lord minutely;

 

3. Full of gnAnam -thathvagnAnathai udaiyarAna Azhwar;

 

4.Having reached this stage AzhwAr did not want to cherish this

alone. Therefore he preached the dos and donts to the people who are

stuck up in samsAram.

 

5. The Great Lord is not unrachable but easily apporachable;

 

6. He mixes with one and all freely;

 

7. He condones one's mistaekes without much ado,mutual exchange of

relationship between the Lord and soul is made possible and other

such auspicious qualities are several aspects highlighted by AzhwAr.

 

All fruits blossom due to the aformementioned aspects. Hence, let the

souls follow the means as mentioned by Him in gEthA sAsthram is

underlined by AzhwAr. The doubt of supremacy vis-a-vis other deities

is also completely eradicated. With this let the souls worship Him

without any expectations is the prime aspect couselled by AzhwAr to

the jEvAthmAs.

 

Thus, as the Lord had out of His Grace granted mayarvaRa mathi nalam,

AzhwAr shows the way to attain Him by eliminating the ignorance of

the ignorant souls in the first pathu.
