Dear Sri Nrusimha BhakthAs :

 

The Second Paasuram for the Lord of Ahobilam is :

 

alaittha pEzh vaay vALL yeyiRu ohr kOLL ari aay , avuNan

kolaik-kayyALan nenju idantha koor uhirALan idam

malaittha selsAtthu yeRintha poosal vann-tuDi vaay kaduppa

silaikkai vEdar thezhippu aRAtha SingavEL KunRamE

 

- - Periya Thirumozhi :1.7.2

 

Today , we will study the last two lines of the above Paasuram .

 

There are the natives of Ahobilam . They are the hunters with a tight

sense of Community . Senju Lakshmi is one of them .Therefore , they

consider Lord Narasimhan, who married Her as their kulam's son-in-law

( MaappiLLai Swamy ) . They have a sense of ownership of the hills

and dales of Ahobilam . Now comes a band of devotees , who brave

the dangers of the travel in Ahobilam hills and try to chase their fears

away by talking loud and being noisy . This makes the natives unhappy .

They want to assemble their clan by blowing on their trumpets and

drums to fight " the intruders " .The hunters have their bows in hand

and do not hesitate to throw stones at the band of travellers rushing

towards the Lord's Sannidhi before the Sun sets and the wild animals

come out . The mutual distrust and the noisy quarrels between the two

groups fill the air and there is commotion all around . That noise never

subsides in the hills of SingavEL KunRam .

 

Out of their deep devotion for Narasimha BahgavAn , which at times

appear to exceed even that of PrahlAdhAzhwAn , these BhaagavathAs

climb the hills huddled together to overcome their anxieties arising

from travel in the dangerous foot paths of Ahobilam hills populated by

hostile tribes and wild animals .

 

Such is the inaccessibility of Ahobila Dhivya dEsam ! The ardour of

the devotees of the Lord overcomes their discomfort and fears as

they march bravely up the hills to have the darsana soubhAgyam of

the Narasimha BhagavAn .

 

Sri Lakshmi Nrusimha ParabrahmaNE Nama:
