one of another unique feature of nam-piLLai's commentary is that in the =final

pAsuram of any padhigam he goes on to summarise each pAsuram =vyAkyAnam briefly

and compiles the whole thiru-voi-mozhi.

 

For instance,While concluding the commentary on the 'vUnil vAZhi' padhigam thiru

voi mozhi 2-3 swAmi nam-piLLai compiles as follows:

 

"1. mudhal pAttil thiru vuLLathai koNdAdinAr;2. iraNdAm pAttil athaiyum

isaivitha sarvEswaranaik koNdAdinAr;3. mUnRAm pAttil-tham nenjiR pattadhoRu

thiru voi mozhiyai sAbiprAyamAga abhyasithu, nAlu =nALum nAlvar iruvar vuLLAr

It may be thus observed that at the conclusion of this padhigam the =essence of

each pAsuram is briefly summarised. This can be observed in =several

padhigam-s.
