sUthram 228-16

 

Continuation the Thoughts of Almighty

 

AzhwAr knows all these :

piNakkip bhEadhiyAdha gnAnAdhi vaikalyam illai: At the time of great pralayam -

the souls are kept and safeguarded in His stomach in a subtle form. At the time

of creation, the kArmic effect of one soul does not get mixed up with the other.

Such a type of knowledge and power rests with the Lord.

" piNakki yAvaiyum, yAvarum, bhEdhithum, bhEdhiyAdhadhOr, kaNakkil kErthi veLLak

kadhir gnAna murthy " thiru-voi-mozhi 6-2-8;

 

Further,

yEaga murthiyil allal mAitha yathna palavidhangaL nammadhu: Moreover, after

having created the souls, the Almighty also creates all other things, lives and

also meditates -yOga nithirai- in the thirup-pAR-kadal to sustain them and keeps

on blessing them with His grace.

" yEaga murthy, iru mUrthy, mUnRu mUrthi, palamUrthiAgi, aindhu bhUdamAi, iraNdu

chudarAi, aruvAgi, nAgamEARi, nadukkadaluL thuyinRA nArAyaNANEA.. "

thiru-voi-mozhi 4-3-3;

Thus, the Lord strives to reclaim the souls and the results are attributed to

Him, of course.

 

 

nam thani-ninRA swathanthrar: AzhwAr has realised that the Lord is independent

and needs no support-- 'thani ninRA sArvilA mUrthy " ;

He created the whole scheme of things; He swallowed and spit out the whole

things; He is all the other deities; He is one and all, which I have realised

is the essence of the pAsuram

" avanEa agal gnAlam padaithu idandhAn;

avnaEa akdhu vuNdhumizhndhAn;

avnaEa avanum, avanum, avanum,

avanEA maRRellAmum, aRindhanamEA " thiru-voi-mozhi 9-3-2;

 

Thus, it is crystal clear that AzhwAr has understood that the Lord is

independent, He does not need any support, He creates, destroys and sutains the

whole world/worlds , He creates and maintains all the souls , dieites and

others. .
