AchArya Hrdhyam suthram 224

The Sixth Ten Contd

kUvik koLLum kAlam innam kuRugAdhO.

 

" thaLarvEAnO, thirivEanO, kuRugAdhOA, mudhalvAvOA! ennum ArthiyOdEA... "

 

 

Summary: AzhwAr reaching a state of affairs where Lord is everything and

everyone was seen in the preceding posting. This led to an immense longing for

the Lord. The presence in this world-samsAram became very agonising for AzhwAr.

The yearning grew boundlessly. AzhwAr recalls the period when the Lord graced

His divine feet to one and all- when He had measured all the worlds. " When will

I see attain Your holy feet " is the pining words from AzhwAr. AzhwAr desires to

get away from this painful world and reach the divine feet of " the Lord with

His divine consort " . Should not the period of attaining this becomes much

shorter? is the desire of AzhwAr.

 

 

pAsuram-s:

 

" kOlath thiru mA magaLOdu ennaik kUdAdhEa, sAlap pala nAL adiyEan innam

thalarvEAnO? " --thiru voi mozhi 6-9-3---> Will I be still weakening because of

not attaining You " Lord with Your consort " .

 

" thEyOdu vudan sEAr mezhugAi vuligil thirivEanO? " ---> thiru voi mozhi 6-9-6-->

Will agony torture me in this world like the candle burnt by the flame.

 

" puNarEai ninRa maram iraNdin naduvEa pOna mudhalvA! vO? " --thiru voi mzohi

6-10-5-> The Longing for the Lord who is the saviour of the worlds is stressed.

 

" thAvi vaiyam koNda, thadam thAmaraigatkEa, kUvik koLLum kAlam innam

kuRugAdhO? " ----> " Oh ! Lord! When will I reach You. You who had conquered by

walking the whole world and blessed Your feet to one and all. Will the time of

reaching you become much shorter " is the emotional outburst of swAmi nam-AzhwAr.

 

kUvik koLLum kAlam innam kuRugAdhO?
