Guest guest Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 THE IMPLICIT EXCLUSION kulam pAzh paduthu Sri PeriyAzvAr describes the killing of the rAvanA and his clan as 'decimating the clan'.'kulam pAzh paduthu..' 4-2-1 of PeriyAzvAr thirumozhi If that is so, what will happen to the likes of Sri VibhIshanAzvan and his kins?They were not slain. So the words should have been 'kulam pAzh paduthu-except Sri VibhEshnAzvAn'. The commenator's role is not to just go on translate the meanings but also analyse the meanings thereon. Sri VibhishanAzvan'a good nature and honest thinking made Him to surrender at the feet of PerumAL, withering off all his relations. Therefore, he is never considred as the clan of rAkshasAs. As Sri ANDAL says 'pollA arakkanai kiLLik kiLaindhAnai', Sri VibhIshanAzvAn though born of asura-yOni is a good demon. Here, AzvAr mentions decimating the clan of bad natured arakkar-s. Sri PrahlAdhAzvAn and Sri VibhishanAzvAn are good arakkar-s. Sri Nam AzvAr also spefies this as 'ilangai arakkar kulam murud thErtha pirAn'. 'PerumAL kai koNDu aruLinapOdhEa andha janmam mARip pOnadhiREA.' This is PeriyA jEyar vyAkyanam. The instant Sri Chakravarhtith Thriumagan took him into His fold, the antecedence vanished. 'konRu thiriyum arakkarai kulam pAzh paduthu..' 4-2-1; AdhalAl ivvidathil sonna arakkar rAvanAdhigaLu avaragaLaic chEarndhavargaLum. AdhalAl kulam pAzh paduthu ennak kuRai illai Sri mAmunikaL Therefore, here the word 'arakkar' includes rAvanan and his people (and not Sri VibhishanAzvan and his people)and so decimating the clan, despite Sri VibishanAzvan survival, is appropriate.This is the implicit exclusion.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Dear Mr.N.S.Padmanabhan, I want to make an important correction in this mail of yours.You have mentioned that Ravana as Asura which is wrong.ASURAAS are different from RAAKSHASAAS.ASURAAS are born of PRAJAPATI MAHARSHI KAASYAPA , like DAITHYAS and DAANAVAS.On the other hand, RAAKSHASAAS are born of HETI and PRAHETI.Example: HIRANYAKASIPU was a ASURAA , and RAAVANA was a BRAHMARAAKSHASAA.
