Sixth CheyyuL : Introduction

************************************

In this verse , KambhanAttAzhwAr sings about the vaibhavam of SaThakOpar's ThiruvAimozhi Paasurams as echoing the authentic , esoteric meanings of Upanishads , while adhering strictly to the rules of superior Tamizh grammar and poetry .

 

Text of the Sixth SeyyuL

*********************************

tOnRA upanidatap-poruL tOnRaluRRAr tamakkum

 

sAnRAm ivai yenRapOthu maRRen ? palakAlum tammin

 

mUnRAyinavum ninanthAraNatthin mummai Tamizhai

 

yeenRAn KuruhaippirAn EmpirAnRan isaik-kaviyE

General Meaning and comments :

*******************************************

KuruhaippirAn EmpirAn isaik-kavi yeenRAn= The great one , who incarnated in ThirukkurhUr gave birth to ThiruvAimozhi filled with isai and ilakkaNam( grammar).

 

tammin mUnRAyinavum pala kAlum ninaivuRRu AaraNatthin mummai Tamizhai KuruhaippirAn EmperumAn YeenRAn= SaThakOpar , the Prapanna jana santAna kUDastar , remembered the

tripartite ( trayi) nature of the VedAs many times and gave birth to the paasurams in the form of Tamil Veda mantrams , which housed the essence of the three Sanskrit VedAs ( Rg , Yajur and Saama).

 

Vedam is three fold. Modelled after that ,

SaThakOpar gave birth to " Mummai Tamizh". Mummai stands for many triads :

 

AbhEdha , Gataka, BhEda Srutis

 

Adhvaitam , dhvaitam , VisishtAdhvaitam

 

Saantikam , Poushtikam , AabhichArakam

Iyal. Isai ,Naatakam

 

Tattvam , hitam , PurushArtham

 

chith , achith , Iswaran

 

Karma, Bhakti , JN~Ana yOgams

 

Just as GaDaka sruti resolved the conflicts between BhEdha and abhEdha srutis , the paasurams of SaThakOpar born out of His Jn~Ana garbham brought out the true meanings of Veda Mantrams in scholarly Tamizh without contradicting each other.

 

ivai tOnRA upanidatap-poruL tOnralluRRar tamakkum sAnRum yenRa pOthu maRRenRin ?

 

ivai yeenRAn =the paasurams were created by the AzhwAr in this manner remembering the triumvirate aspect of the VedAs .YeenRAn means gave birth .

These Paasurams were concieved ,

nourished in the Jn~Ana garbham of SaThakOpar and delivered for our benefit .

 

tOnRA upaniDatap-poruL = that which does not reveal itself easily (Viz); the meanings of the upanishads

 

tOnRaluRRAr tamakkum sAnRum= The

Paasurams of SaThakOpar become validating sources for those , who wished to assure themselves about " the correct meanings" given to them by others . This passage in other words means that AzhwAr's paasurams are very helpful to understand the authentic meanings of difficult to know Upanishad mantrams . SaanRu means saakshi ( about their authenticity).
