Summary:The Lord who is the three type of causes- thri-vidha kAranan - nimitham,

upAdhAnam and sahakAri of the three worlds-achith and also the cause for

bhaktha, nithya and mukthAs, imparted immense knowledge to AzhwAr. AzhwAr as a

sequence to this desired to reach His abode and be with the nithya-sUri ghOshti

but the desire did not get fulfilled and yearned for this-vAda.

 

The relevant pAsuram-s are:

I.

sOrAdha epporutkum AdhiyAm sOdhi-thiru voi-mozhi 2-1-11;

mUvAth thani mudhalAi---> thiru voi mozhi 2-8-5;

epporuktum vEar mudhal Ai vithAi--> thiru voi mozhi 2-8-10;

poruL enRu iv vulagam padaithavan pugazh mEal ---> thiru voi mozhi 2-10-11;

 

The Lord is all the three causes of the three chiths-bhakthar mukthar and

nithyar; He is the three type of achiths viz:prAkrudham, aprAkrudham and kAlam.

The three type of cause are main cause -upAdhAnam ; sahakArika kAraNam -

anciliary cause; nimitha kAraNam- the cause of the cause or the sankalpam of the

Lord in creation.For anything the three causes are different. But, the Lord

decides to create the world -nimitha kAraNan; He becomes a part of them through

His omni-presence- hence, upAdhAnam and He also is a part of creation process

and hecne,sahakArika kAraNam. Thus the prime quality in this ten being all

causes of all is explained.
