[sri ramanuja] A Peep into Periya Thirumozhi 315

[Guest guest]

THE MONO ACTING

Sulabhyam and Parathvam

 

AzvAr-s see in awe the parathvam of EmperumAn. They melt at His saulabyam.

 

Can this be done simultaneously? Tirumangai AzvAr transforms himself in the role of two maidens. One appreciates the Lord saulabyam and His deeeds of 'down to earth' and the other replying talking of His Supremacy i.e parathvam.

 

The first one eulogises the saulabyam of Sri krshNA devouring the butter, stealing from households and the second one reples -this is the great one who devoured the worlds in His belly.

'thAizh kuzhalAr vaitha thayir vuNDAn kANEADi..

yEazhulagum idamudaithAl sAzhElEA' 11-45-2;

 

The first one commends the EmperumAn taking the dwarf form to retrieve the lands from mAvali and the second answers 'Oh! this very Person, is the One who is the Supreme of all the worlds'

 

The first glues herself in the deeds of Sri krshNA going as an emissary and the second says-who can it be? He is the ONe who had swallowed all the worlds and

then brought out'

'kOdhai vEal aivarkkAi maN agalam kUriduvAn..

...Odha nEr vaiyagam mun vuNdumizhndAn' 11-5-7;

 

 

and goes on this dialogue in this fashion all in

 

the fifth thriumozhi of the 11th ten 'mAnamarum men-nOAkki'

 

and this mono-acting is again the uniqueness of kaliyan
