AchArya Hrdhayam -sUthram 223

The Fifth Ten

poliga ! poliga ! poliga.

 

"vishavrusha palangaL kai kUdinavar adimai pukkAraiyum Atch

seivAraiyum kANa lOkathdhvEpAndhrangaLil ninRum pOndha dhEvar

kuzhAngaLaik kaNdu kAppittu, prahlAdha vibhEshaNa soR kELAdha arakkar

asurar pOlvArai thadavaip pidithu.........."

 

Summary: It has been time and again observed that AzhwAr's bhakthi

pervades to the devotion to the devotees. It does not stop with that.

AzhwAr counsels the samsAri- fellow souls- to surrender unto Him and

serve Him. --Refer onRum dhEvum- 4-10 of thiru voi mozhi. The

devotion to the Lord and to the devotees are the fruits which AzhwAr

got from the poisionous tree of samsAra.

 

The AzhwAr advised the samsAris in the "onRum dhEvum" thiru voi mozhi.

The effect was tremondous. AzhwAr had a divine vision of

"srEvaishNavites" in and around this world. He praised this--

"poliga!poliga"-- the mangaLA sAsanam by AzhwAr. He also saw the

srEvaishNates in the Lord's other world -nithya sUrigaL- and

appreciated that -"poliga, poliga , poliga".

AzhwAr exclaims - We had a great vision. We had a sweet

vision.---"kaNdOm! kaNdOm! kaNdOm-kaNNukku iniyana kaNdOam!"

 

The non-srEvaishNavites became a rare breed. They had to be searched

and found out. Even the asura clans became reformed. Those who did

not heed to the advice of sri prahlAdhAzhwAn or vibishaNa AzhwAn were

a rare specimen and had to be searched like a needle in a haystack.

 

The impact of counsel by AzhwAr and the resultant divine pervading

vision is greatly appreaciated by the ecstasic AzhwAr as

 

"poliga! poliga! poliga"

..

 

pAsuram-s:

 

Counsel by AzhwAr: "onRum dhEvum" thiru voi mozhi 4-10:

 

What is the advice?

"maRRaith dheivam nAdhudhirEa" --> Are you approaching other deities?

"dheivam maRRillai"-----> There is no other Almighty but sriman NArAyaNA.

"Adhi mUrthikku adimaip puguvadhuvEa'--> The only way to escape is to surrender and serve Him.

"Atch cheivadh vuRuvadhu"---> Serve Him. It should be your only goal.
