Sri Pillai Lokacharya's

Mumukshuppadi

 

Sutra:

90. ithu - akAraththilE enRum solluvarkaL; ukAraththilE enRum

solluvarkaL.

 

Meaning:

Some say that the bhAgavata sEshatvam described previously

is present in the suppressed fourth case in the akAram; some

others say that it is in the ukAram which removes anya

sEshatvam.

 

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:

As some say that the bhAgavata sEshatvam, which is present in

the practice of the namaS, is to be found in the akAram and

in the ukAram, it is explained here.

 

The first part of the praNavam is akAram which contains a

suppressed fourth case. Through it, the jIva's bhagavat

sEshatvam is shown. Because bhAgavata sEshatvam is the height

of bhagavat sEshatvam, some say that the practice of

bhAgavata sEshatvam can be found in the akAram itself.

 

The ukAram that comes after the akAram in praNavam removes anya

sEshatvam. The height of removal of anya sEshatvam is having

bhAgavata sEshatvam and therefore some say that bhAgavata

sEshatvam can be found in ukAram itself.

 

This bhAgavata sEshatvam is not obtained by words (that is,

it is not stated explicitly) but is seen through meaning.

Therefore, it can be found anywhere. Nevertheless, it is Sri

Pillai Lokacharya's divine thought that it is best to find it

in the namaS that removes ahankAram and mamkAram.
