Earlier the difference between thirumangai azhvar’s involvement in contrasts

with the other rishis and Azhvars were explained. Now Sri PVP engages himself

to show the ultimate difference in the love of thirumangai azhvar towards

emperuman. This azhvar is not like the other Azhvars or the dear daughter of

Sri Janakarajan (Sri Seetha piratti). Kaliyan is so soft in nature that he can

never withstand the separation from emperuman even for a minute. When emperuman

tried to get away from azhvar for sometime then azhvar stopped perumal saying,

“Did you think me also to be like your other devotees? I do not have the

capacity to enjoy you like the malayar ootru (they are capable to eat

continuously for eight to ten days and then stay without any food for the next

eight to ten days). I cannot enjoy you for a period of time and then stay away

from you without any anubhavam like the other Azhvars or Seetha piratti who

stayed away from you for ten months. I cannot stay in your separation

even for a second” whereas While together, “I do not understand who this person

standing along with the chakra and golden sArngam in his hand is.” Says azhvar

failing to realize emperuman even when emperuman came and stood before azhvar

with his entire divine exceptional identities.

 

 

 

“Aga, emperuman evarkku nirhEdhukamAga chit achit Ishvara thatvattrayaththaiyum

kAttikkodukka kandu anubhaviththu “adhanir Periya ennavA” endru thammudaiya

abhinivEshaththukku erai pOrAmaiyAlE alamandhu koopittu, pinbhu, thAm avAvattru

veedupettru thrupthanAnapadiyai pEsi thalaikattugirAr – epprabhandhaththAl”

 

 

 

In this way, emperuman showed him, due to his divine grace the thatvattrayam

viz., chit, achit and Ishvaran. Azhvar enjoyed seeing the same but not

satisfied with the same called for emperuman to satisfy his further wishes and

then later sang about the way he was blessed with the divine house, the

paramapadam fulfilling all his wishes satisfactorily in this last prabhandam

(thirunedundAndagam).

 

 

 

With this the avathArikai (Introduction) of Sri PeriyavAchAn pillai to

Thirumangai Azhvar’s final prabhandam, the thirunedundAndagam (equal to a

sastram according to our acharyas) comes to an end. This series was written to

just spread awareness among the bhagavatas about the Excellency of Sri PVP’s

style of commentary in simple and easily understandable format. It is a common

fear in all our minds that the vyakhyanams of our acharyas cannot be understood

by reading ourselves. It is not so. Probably it is difficult the first time

but then no theory even in our science books are understood by us the very first

time. On reading twice or thrice along with clearing our doubts here and there

with the always-ready acharyas and scholars we all are sure to understand the

indepth meanings of our azhvar’s erachchorkal with the help of our poorvAcharya

vyakhyanams. Why not make a try? No loss if you don’t succeed but if you don’t

try then it is surely a big loss.

 

 

 

The transliteration/translation in the series of postings may be very poor.

Adiyen begs the pardon of the bhagavatas for the same. But adiyen sincerely

hopes by the krupai of Sri Parthasarathi emperuman and blessings of our acharya

the series will surely serve its purpose and make atleast a few of you open the

vyakhyanam books in your bookself that have not been dusted for long due to the

fear of not being able to understand the language (mani-pravalam).
