AchArya Hrdhayam

 

Recap of Fourth Ten

 

nAngAm pathu

 

The prime quality of the Lord dealt in this pathu is the quality of being the

internal generator/governor of one and all. The fact that the Lord is omni

presence was seen in the third ten. Unless, one is able to control these, the

all pervasiveness is not fully uselful. The fact that the Lord is controller of

one and all is enunciated in this nAlAm pathu.

 

AzhwAr's desire to experience the Lord at different phases of past times was

made possible by the Lord - bAlanAi 4-2

 

AzhwAr's deeds mixed with his organs were themselves accepted by the Lord as

ornaments in kOvai vAyAl 4-3

 

However, the feeling of having not attained the Lord surfaces and all the things

in and around AzhwAr appears like Lord and His related ones which is described

in 'maNNai irundhu thuzhAvi " 4-4;

 

To appease this desire, the Lord disclosed the vision of His stance in

paramapadham with Sri lakshmi and granted the divine vision to Azhwar in

" vERRirundhu " 4-5;

 

Further, the futility of appraching the devathAnthram -other deities is

elaborated in 'thErpArai " ; The futility or incompetence of these are again

explained in the pAsuram 'ilingathitta " ;The futility of other philosophies are

explained in the pAsuram " viLambu ARu samayamum " ;

 

Finally, the fact that His divine feet is the ultimate refuge. " Service to His

divine feet is the goal. Go and enjoy this treat " is the counsel by AzhwAr in

this

nAlAm pathu.
