Thirumangai AzhwAr's ThirunedunthANdakam- 19th verse- She does not heed to my appeal and talk!

[Guest guest]

Sri:

SrimathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama:

Dearest all,

 

He is very much fond of and is in ever lasting love with Sri Mahalakshmi and His

priyai is Sri Bhumi PiraaTTi. Taking that as the cue- the fellow woman tells the

mother “tell her (your daughter) that He already has these two divine

consorts. And hence shouldn’t she abstain from the one who is already with

others? The mother responds.

 

muRRaaraa vanamulaiyaaL paavai maayan

moyyakalath thuLLiruppaaL aqthum kaNdum

aRRaaL,than niRaiyazhinthaaL aavik kinRaaL

aNiyaranga maaduthumO thOzhee! ennum,

poru atRAL- unmatched (to herself) and unparalleled

en magaL- my daughter

mutRu aaraa vanam mulaiyaaL- not even well grown breasted

“paavai maayan moi agalatthuL iruppAnâ€- Periya PiraaTTi Mahalakshmi resides

in the divine chest of the most wonderful Lordâ€

a:dhum kaNdu koNdu- isnpite of knowing and realizing that (my girl)

atRAL- she has dedicated herself only to Him and Him alone;

niRaivu izhandhaaL- she has lost the feminity inherent in women folks

aavikkinRAL – she heaves a deep sigh longing for Him;

thozhee! “Oh friend!

aNi arangam aadudhum O- Come; let us dance and sing in praise of the most

beautiful Thiruvarangam (or go and dance in Thiruvarangam)â€

ennum- thus she asks you (her friend)

petREn pEsa – the mother (who is blessed to have such a girl)- when beginning

to talk to her;

vaai sol iRaiyum kELAL- she does not listen to it even a bit; (hardly listens to

me)

pEr paadi, than kudanthai nagarum paadi- She sings of ThiruppEr; the cool

charming Thirukkudanthai divya desams;

potrAmarai kayam neeraada ponAL- She has gone to take bath in lotus flowered

pond of the divya desam.

Um ponnum a:dhE?- Is you daughter also like that? (or not?)

 

The girl is so young that she has not grown up yet; she very well knows that the

Lord houses the Goddess Mahalakshmi (the most beautiful One) in His divine chest

and in spite of that she heaves a sigh of longing and languishes for Him. They

(the divya dampathi) are so youthful and area beautiful. They are inseparable

and are always together. They both never ever leave each other. Why does my

daughter long for Him?

Not only do I tell the same. She has seen Her in His divine chest. Still

Parakala nayaki wants to unite with Him. (That’s the quality of Jeevathma…

namakkum poovin misaim nangaikkum nAthan)

 

Poru vatrAL- unparalleled and unmatched my girl- thinks that even Mahalakshmi is

not equal to her and hence the Lord would take her on His own. True indeed.

“thannadiyaar thiratthagatthu thaamaraiyaaLaagilum sidhaguraikkurEl..

ennadiyaar adhu seyyar; … remember that verse here.)

Here uLLiruppAL- She resides and dwells insider. Not only in Divya mangaLa

vigraham; also in Divya Athma swaroopam. When the Lord Sriman Narayanan

manifests inside and outside of everything and everyone as the antharyaami as

Narayanan (Naaraanaan ayanam and Naara: ayanam yasya sa:) (anthar bahischathas

sarva vyApya nArAyaNasthitha:).. Mahalakshmi also manifests even in Divya Athma

swaroopam – says Swami Periya vacchaan Pillai mentioning PitaaTTi’s

vailakshaNyam.

 

AsrayaNa vELaiyOdu, bhOga vELaiyOdu Swaroopa vELaiyOdu, - vaasiyaRa- oru

mithunamE prathisambandhi.

 

Let us go and dance in Arangam. Arangam itself is the stage. She also sings in

praise of other divya desams like Per, Kudanthai etc.

 

Neeraada- This also may not mean bathing. In Tamil ilakkiyam- neeradal is

referred to neeraadal, sunaiyaadal- means- uniting with the beloved. And hence

Parakala nayaki here has gone to unite with the Lord and entered into the

bhagavad anubhavam.

 

Is you daughter also like that? None can be like mine. Or it may also be enjoyed

that Parakala nayaki’s mother is talking to other AzhwAr (in nayaki form)’s

mother and enquires “is you daughter the sameâ€.

Yes, Yes… her name is Parankusa nayaki… (says udaiya nangai).it may also

mean PeriyAzhwAr. As if it is addressing PeriyAzhwAr.

 

The vibhava avathArams are mentioned herein and hence the vibhavams are sought

after by the AzhwAr. Even in Periya Thirumozhi, after immersing himself in

aracha anubhavam, azhwAr enjoys vibahavams specially- Sri Uttamoor Swami adds.
