SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah: Dearest Srivaishnavas, kaaytthaneeL viLankani uthirtthethirntha poonkurundhu (dham) saaytthu maa piLantha kaitthalattha kaNNan enparaal aaychchipaalai uNdu maNNai uNdu veNNey uNdu, pin pEychchi paalai uNdu paNdOr ENnamaaya vaamaNnaa! (37) Or yEnam Aya vaamanaa! The Lord who appeared as Huge Boar at the beginning of kalpam! Vaamanaa! The One who (during this avathAram of KaNNan) drank the breast milk of YasOdhai; ate the sand (in the streets- like an ordinary child); stole butter from cowherd folks? houses and ate the same joyously; not just that- You drank also the poisonous milk of Poothanai also; You are addressed as KaNNapiraan the One who made the viLAm pazha tree fall (by throwing the asurA who came in the guise of a calf by catching its tail and swirling it against the tree); one who befelled the trees of Kurundha; one who killed the horse (Kesi) ? one who is our nirvAhakan- by name KaNNan (say vEdhAthic scholars). The One who were Varaaham and Vaamanan is this KaNNan. Since these avathArams have already been dealth with by AzhwAr in earlier verses- he just summarizes them in half line- paNdu (Then) Or yEnamAya vaamanaa! maNNiyuNdu- can be KaNNan Kutti eating the sand; OR the Lord having swallowed all seven worlds and the whole prakruthi maNdalam; Since all other events are related to KaNNan?s it is more appropriate to relate the same to KaNNan?s eating sand. When He ate the maN (sand), AzhwAr remembered the Lord taking the maN (earth) out of troubled waters i.e Varaaha avathAram. The way You did all those wonders in previous avathArams are nothing when compared to Your wonders [Kutti KaNNan?s]- when Poothanai came in guise of a motherly lady with affection, when the asurA came in the guise of a calf; or as viLAmpazha tree- they all get killed by Kutti with effortless ease. Also, when the asurA comes straight with wide open mouth as in the case of kEsi horse, he also gets killed.
