A. SrImad tirukkuDandai ANDavan:

Characteristics like sin and virtue which pave the way to salvation, happiness,

sadness, anger, compassion etc are all manifestations of my svAmi, who lives in

tirumaNikkUDam. In that place, all the sages and deva-s proclaim that among the

trimUrti-s, brahma, vishNu and Sivan, they all worship vishNu. Thus, the

tiruppati is one favorite place of worship for the deva-s and sages.

 

B. SrI PVP:

sarvESvaran is the One who ordains the activities of people, like performing

actions shunned by SAstram, doing activities prescribed by Sastram; these

activities lead one to aspiration for mokhsam/salvation, the guNam-s that help

towards that realization, the guNam-s that obstruct the path towards salvation,

etc.; these follow the set rules formed by emperumAn who lives in this divya

dESam.

 

 

pAvamum aRamum vIDum inbamum tunbamum tAnum

kOvamum aruLum allA guNangaLum Aya endai – my emperumAn is the manager of

characteristics like pApam, puNyam, moksham, bliss, sorrow, anger and blessing

and others.

 

mUvaril engaL mUrti ivan ena munivarODu

dEvar vandiRainjum – sanakAdi Rshi-s and indra and other devata-s are

determined that out of the three mUrti-s – brahma, vishNu and Siva, the one to

be worshiped is vishNu Himself and are all stationed in tirumaNikkUDam. sanakar

and other Rshi-s came to a final decision after some deliberations - “vishNu

is the antaryAmi of brahma and rudra; He also preserves this world. So, He is

our mUrti†and decided to stay in tirumaNikkUDam.

 

nAngUrt tirumaNik kUDattAnE – that special emperumAn is living in tirunAngUr

tirumaNikkUDam.
