"Emperumaan- KaNNan- How will I describe Him?- as the One who is unparalleled
and praised Gloriously by sruthis and smrthis; OR as the One who is like the
Mother Earth in its unmatched Patience; OR as the Big Ocean which is full of
cool and bright water; OR as the Fire; OR as the Air; OR as the Sky? OR as the
Bright, Shining Sun & Moon? OR as the Entirety of all Objects? _ How will I
address Him? OR Should I say all these ones?"

"I am totally speechless and at a loss of words to sing pAsuram (about Him) due
to the ecstasy of my bhakti; Is He all the Mountains? Is He the reat Rains?
(Californians would have seen Him in torrential rains of these days- "aazhi pOl
minni valampuripOl ninRadhirndhu thaazhaadhE saarnghamudhaittha saramazhaipOl")
Is He those Bright, Shining String of stars? Is He those arts? Is He the
embodiment of jnAnA? The Red Lotus eyed Lord of mine- How will I address His
Auspicious attributes?"

(What a tamizh!) He is of the Most Grandest form of Black MANIckkam (Emerald)-
Should I call My Lord, The Supreme? As The Red Lotus Eyed Lord
(SenthaamaraikkaNNan); OR as the Red Coral lipped Lord (pavaLacchevvayan); OR
as the One who has the Bright Shining Most Beautiful Lotus Feet; OR as the One
who is of Most Darkest Colour like the "mai"(anjanam)- (kaajal in Hindi); OR as
the One who has the Shining Crown? OR as the One who has the Goddess
MahAlakshmi in His chest; OR as the One who has the sanghu (Divine Conch) and
chakrA (Divine Discuss);"

"Should I call Him as the MaNickkam of the Highest Quality? As The Brightest
Shining Gold? As The illustrious Pearl? As The invaluable Diamond? As the
ceaseless Light?  OR as the Paramapadham? OR as the Chief of Parama padham?
(AdhiyanjOthi- His divine Body in Paramapadham; Aadhiyam purudan- DivyAthma
swarUpam); Is HE NOT the Faultless One, who has granted me the knowledge to
know my connection with Him and the my support after I become supportless in
this worldly life? He is My Acuthan, who NEVER LEAVES me.

"Should I call Him as the One who DOES NOT HAVE any blemish/fault whatsoever
and is always united with endless, Ceaseless Paramapadham? OR as the One who is
the Best, Most Desirable Medicine for removal of karmAs/sins of His Devotees
and protecting them? OR as the One who is like the amirtham (nectar) churned
out in pARkadal? OR as the Sugarcane like the nectar? OR SHOULD I CALL HIM as
the "akkAra adisil" (Sweet Food)? Or the Most tastiest Ghee? OR the Sweetest
Madhu? OR the Best Fruit? OR the Milk? OR WHAT? - How shall I describe Him?
(AzhwAr has tasted Him and He is trying his level best to put in words for all
of us to comprehend; BUT, alas! He is indescribable!)

3051:

"Should I call my Emperumaan as The Milk? OR as the Fruit of VedAs? Or as the
Epics? Or as the Divine Music that pulls us automatically (the moment we start
listening to it)? OR Much Higher than all of these things? OR AS THE ONE THAT
CAN GRANT THE MOST MAXIMUM BENEFITS TO US with extremely little effort of ours?
(Sisters and Brothers, What a Beautiful narration, What an anubhavam of
AzhwAr!) Should I call Him "kaNNa!"? OR as the "Thirumaal"? OR as the "Maayan"?
He is The One who is the Cause for dEvAs lives."

MaNickkam; Should I address His as the Lord of NityasUris? OR as the Grandest
bhOgam of NityasUris' anubhavams (enjoyments)? OR ALL OTHER THINGS? OR as the
Endless, Ceaseless WEALTH? OR as the Endless Swargam (heaven)? OR the
mOkshArtham? - HOW WILL I ADDRESS HIM?."

"Should I narrate Him as the Most Brightest, Shining colour of MANickkam? OR as
the One who addresses You as the "Unmatched!" and  the one who has the moon in
his head- sivan? OR the Four Headed BrahmA? What shall I tell? Oh My Lord, The
One who created the Worlds and protected them! KaNNA! Oh Lord, The One who has
the Most Fragrant ThuLasi Garlands in His head! How should I call You? "

" I DO NOT KNOW Him fully and also the way to narrate Him and call Him; He
churned the Ocean and offered the Nectar (amirtham); The Lord is He, who is
lting down on the AdhisEshan; He retained all the worlds in His stomach and
spat them after the Cosmic Cycle end and protected them- Such a great Lord is
He- and I do not know at all the way to praise His glories; He is The One who
stays in everything and has Everything in Him and directs evrything"

"He is the quintessence of all; He is the antharyaami in the Non-sentient
(achit) and in the Sentient (Chit); Such a Lord is He and He stays in them
while He remains unaffected by them simultaneously; He is the Embodiment of
knowledge (jnAnam) and is totally INCOMPREHENSIBLE by the capacity of Five
sense organs; (For the Athman, there is no Growth or decaying even though
Athman stays in the body; Similarly Emperumaan IS NOT AFFECTED by the karmAs
even if He is an antharyaami;"

"The Lord is of Blue Hued Colour of the Dark Clouds; He wears the Most Fragrant
Garland flowers surrounded by the humming bees; About Him, Thirukkurugoor
SadagOpan has sung 1000 pAsurams; Out of those 1000, those who tead these TEN
pAsurams (or their meanings) ARE DEFINITE to obtain The Endless, Ceaseless
Divine Spiritual Life and will BE GREATLY APPRECIATED BY NITYASURIS. (That is
Great! But why? Aren't they Greater than mukthALs? They are! But the NityasUris
love to be in this Earth BECAUSE the Lord desires to stay right here to bless
us! And those who get closer to Him by becoming His ardent devotees, are
naturally His favorites and also NityasUris'. In fact, NitysUris love the
bhAgawathAls more than the Lord.")
