Thirucchandhaviruttham 32nd verse- You rush to take care of Your Asrithars [devotees]

[Guest guest]

SrI:

SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

 

AzhwAr elaborates the valor of Rama with his divine

Bow in another way in this verse.

 

kurakkiNnap padaikodu kuraikadalin meedhupOy

arakkar angu aranga veMcharam thurantha Aadhi nee

irakkamaN koduththavaRku irakkam onRum inRiyE

parakkavaiththu aLandhukoNda paRpapaadhan allaiyE?

(32)

 

A wonderful anubhavam of AzhwAr! You the great

valorous One! – who sent cruel sharp arrows

effortlessly to the complete destruction of raakshasas

(arakkar- aranga- destruction of arakkar) in lankA;

after building a bridge made of rocks on the ocean in

order to reach lankA – with the help of the army of

monkeys! [And Before that], When you asked for three

measures of earth [maN irakka- beg for earth] by Your

feet [during Your vaamanaavathAram], Bhali immediately

without any hesiatation pledged to give (offered to

give) and You with absolutely no mercy at all (irakkam

onRum inRi) – not even a semblance of it- measured the

entire Universe leaving no portion untouched by Your

Feet and took the whole Universe – Aren’t You Padma

pAdhan! The One with the red lotus feet? [You are].

 

When Devas surrendered at Your feet to save them from

Raavana and others, You appeared as Rama and gathered

the army of monkeys (out of Your sowlabhyam- though

You can singled handedly handle) and leaving no one

behind, took them all to lankA – by building a bridge

across the ocean giving also them a chance to offer

their kaimkaryam (service). Ultimately, You did not

utilize their help or services and made the clan of

Raakshasaas destroyed completely with Your prime

strength by sending arrows at them effortlessly and

victoriously! What is the big deal and wonder in it!

You are Supreme Lord and born as Kshathriyan [king]!

 

The same Devas pleaded to You for getting back the

kingdom that was taken away by Bhali and this time,

You appeared as small dwarf like Brahmachari Boy – in

a divine beautiful Brahmin form and inspite of Bhali’s

Acharya SukrAchArya stopping him and preventing him

from granting what You asked for [realizing that it is

mahAvishNu who has appeared with an intent to conquer

Bhali], Bhali offered to continue with his promise

made that he would give during the yaagam. You did not

even let him stay at the earth leaving a small portion

of land for him; instead, You measured the whole

Universe with your step mercilessly (irakka onRum

inRiyE) and got the whole Universe back from Bhali

[though it is always yours].

 

Did You get scared as a brahmin little boy with

powerful king in front of You? No! You showed no mercy

and rose to ViswarUpam to measure the whole Universe.

Did you ever think of showing dayA to him! Never. Did

you ever think of those tender charming beautiful red

lotus feet- which lookas if they have just been

bloomed- that they would get hurt and pricked by

thorns and rocks of the forests if You expand! The

three worlds- Both Devendran and Bhali wanted to rule

them greedily. Did you attempt to negotiate and split

them into two for both so that both are happy? No.

When You are born as Brahmin- [brahmins usually are

repository of dayA- aiyO paavam- kudutthadalaam-

kEkkiRaan- is our- brahmins’ stand generally], You

did not show any dayA or mercy; and when You are born

as King (kshathriyan), will You show any mercy? So,

what is the wonder in destroying the lankA raakshasaas

completely and effortlessly! No big deal.

 

Padma pAdhan- You forget even the tenderness of Your

ThirumEni (Body) and rush to take care of Asrithars

(devotees)! That is Your nature- enjoys AzhwAr by

taking the word PadmapAdhan- Says Sri UttamUr Swamy

beautifully.
