Sri Pillai Lokacharya's

Mumukshuppadi

 

Sutra:

18. ithu thAn * kulantharum * engiRapadiyE ellA abEkshithankaLaiyum

kodukkum.

 

Meaning:

This Thirumanthra will give that which is seeked by devotees, as

told by Thirumangai Azhvar in his pasuram "kulam tharum ...".

 

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:

The greatness of the Thirumanthra is further explained by the

fact that it will provide to those who recite it what they seek.

 

Thirumangai Azhvar's pasuram goes thus:

kulantharum selvam thanthidum adiyArpadu thuyarAyinavellAm

nilantharanjseyyum nILvisumbaruLum aruLodu perunilamaLikkum

valantharum maRRum thanthidum peRRathAyinumAyina seyyum

nalantharunjsollai nAnkAndukoNdEn nArAyaNAvennum nAmam

 

The meaning of this pasuram is: the Narayana nama will give to

those who recite it, a high class, wealth, it will destroy all

that cause suffering to His devotees, it will give them

mOksha, it will provide them His grace and the strength to

remain in His anubhava, and give all good things that are

seeked by them.

 

Thus, the Thirumanthra will provide all the good things that

are seeked by those who keep reciting it.
