Guest guest Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Vachanam -prakthyaksham-anumAnam Certain postulates can be proved by seeing -prakthayksham. From certain words -Vedic verses, upanishad vAkyams and of course AzvAr aruLich cheyal,idihasam-s etc.- -Vachanam. These can be done through inferences also - anumAnam. When ArjuNA mentioned about seeing the flower he worshipped with on Lord krshNA 's feet,on ParamsivA's head, it was prakthyasksham - 'pArthan theLindhozhindha paithuzhAyAn perumAi-Thiruvaimozhi 2-8-6; When ParamshivA expressed surprise to Lord KrshNA that ' Oh Lord You Created the whole worlds and what a joke that YOu need a boon for begetting a child ? ' this was vachanam. -'kaLvA emmaiyum yEAz vulgum nin vuLLEA ThOTRiya iRAva enRu vEL yEARan..'ThiruvAimozhi 2-2-10; Going by the same analogy PeriyAzvAr mentions that even ParamisvanAr full of knowledge (NuNNaRivin nElAr kaNdathammAn) and BrahmA cannot understand EmperumAn 'OTRai vidayanum nAnmuganum vunnai aRiyap perumAyOnEA'4-10-4 of PeriyAzvAr Thirumozhi. Sri MaNavALa mAmunikaL quotes a verse cum vachanam to establish this: 'yanna DhEVA namunayOA nasAham nacha sankara:-JAnanthi paramESasya that VishNOA;paramam padham' These were the words of BrahamA who expressed that neither him nor ParamsivA or others can understand the Lord. Supremacy -Great-Greater-Greatest Supremacy- Supremacy from actions of Deities. Supremacy- The Salvalogist now Supremacy- From the verses and vachanam of BrahmA.
