Sri Pillai Lokacharya's

Mumukshuppadi

 

Sutra:

92. athAvathu bOgathasaiyil Isvaran azhikkumpOthu nOkka

vENumenRu azhiyAthozigai.

 

Meaning:

What does it mean that the soul should be distributed only

to Him? During the time that He mixes with the soul and

enjoys it, if He destroys the soul's sEshatvam, the soul

should not practise naicchiyam and consider that it

should save its SvarUpam, and thereby destroy His pleasure.

That is, the soul should accept every act of His.

 

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:

In the previous sutra, it was said that "thanakkEyAga

enaik koLLa vENumenkiRathu namaSSAl". The "thanakkEyAga"

in that is now being explained.

 

When Sriman Narayana steps down from His greatness and

mixes with a jIva and begins to enjoy it ("vArik koNdu

unnai vizhunguvan kAnilenRu ArvuRRa ennai ozhiya ennil

munnam pAriththuth thAnennai muRRap paruginAn"), He

might destroy that jIva's sEshatvam. At that time, the

jIva should not think that it should protect its

sEshatvam and perform naicchyam and destroy His pleasure.

Being distributd to Him means, being like Periyazhvar

"seyththalai ezhunARRup pOl avan seyvana seythu koLLa",

and accepting everything that He does.
