Paasuram-38

 

“agaippil manisarai Aru samayam

pugaiththAn porukadal neervaNNan-vugaikkumEl

eththEvar vAlAttum evvAru seigaiyum

appOdhozhiyum azhaippu”

 

Since whatever is happening depends on the sankalpa (thought) of

emperuman, he is considered to be the Adhi (supreme). It is said in

the sastras that brahma is the creator and siva the destroyer. Then

can’t they also be considered as par with emperuman? “If he is not

inside them as antharyAmi, then they will loose their power and

become useless”, says azhvar.

 

(agaippil manisarai) How much ever we advise the jeevas, people like

you never try to understand anything and strive to be foolish;

“agaippu”- ascend; improvement of knowledge. (agaippil manisarai)

those jeevas who lack intelligence. (Lack of intelligence in a

greater level)

 

(Aru samayam pugaiththAn) He made them involved in the six different

philosophies viz.,sAkkiyar (bhoththa), ulookiyar (naiyAyika),

akshapAdar (vAishEshika), kshapanar (jaina), kapilar (sAnkiyam),

padanjali (yOgam) [instead of naiyAyikas and yoga- sArvAga and

pAsupadha philosophies are sometimes included in the six types of

philosophies)

 

(pugaiththan) hunters, in order to get the wild animals outside their

bushes burn some dry leaves and with the help of the smoke hunt the

innocent animals. Similarly emperuman using the same trick used the

six different philosophies to capture the poor jeevatmas into the

nest of samsara.

 

(agaippil ….pugaiththAn) amidst the smoke it is very difficult to get

a clear vision. Even if someone instructs us the way, still the

travel is difficult similarly though azhvar advices the jeevatmas

many times still it is very difficult to come out of the illusion of

devathANtara paratvam and understand the sole supremacy of emperuman.

 

(porukadal neervaNNan-vugaikkumEl) That supreme lord, who gives

pleasure to the eyes of all those who enjoy his darshan. Like the

ocean that fulfills the wishes of all, emperuman grants all our

wishes. There is no chance for him to ignore us.

 

If incase water becomes fire and he ignores us?

 

(eththEvar vAlAttum ozhiyum) The ego and pride of all the devas who

behave like monkeys will all vanish.

(vAlAttum) the shaking of the dog’s tail indicates the dogs

gratefulness towards us. Hence here vAlAttum also indicates

gratitude (abhimAnam) the devas remain with the thought that they are

the supreme (IshvarOham)

 

(evvAru azhaippu seikaiyum ozhiyum) People in this world do all sorts

of yagnas to please the devas and call them with vedic verses,

“indram AvAgayAmi; varunam AvAgayAmi” All these will come to an end.

The calling will stop; the yagnas will stop when emperuman ignores

them. Only under the willingness of emperuman can all these devas

who consider themselves to be gods and all those who call them

through yagnas and give avirbhAvas will remain. The instant he

neglects them irrespective of the devas or jeevas everything will

come to an end even before the pralaya kAlam.
