SrI:

265. SvAdhyAyam
*****************
virai kamazh malar mahaL miha uRum IRayavan
kurai kazhal kuRuhiya kuLir mathi mathiyodu
varai nilai adiyavar maraihaLin maRai yeNum
urai nirai paravuvar uLam amudhu uNavE

(Meaning): The BhaagavathAs will perform ThiruvArAdhanam
( ijyai ) first and partake of the prasAdhams presented to the Lord next .
Thereafter they will spend their time in a delectable manner  and gain
tranquility through reflections on the esoteric meanings of Thirumanthiram
(ashtAksharam ) , Dhvayam and Charama SlOkam of the Lord .

The steadfastness of the BhAgavathAs are compared to that of
the mountains here : " varai nilai adiyavar ". The Lord is saluted as
the dear Lord of the PirAtti arising from the fragrant Lotus flower
(Virai kamazh malar MahaL ). The three  esoteric manthrams
linked to the VedAs ( maRaihaLil maRai yeNum ) are recited by
and reflected on by the BhaagavathAs after AarAdhanam for
their Lord ( PeraruLALan of Kaanchi) for  a delectable experience
about His Sacred feet adorned by His jingling ankle bells .

266. SvAdhyAyam (Continued):
*************************
tuthihaLum aRivu aru suruthiyin iRuthiyin
idhayam ithu yena muni IRayavar uraihaLum
madhuram mann udhaviya maRaihaLum adiyavar
vithi vahai paravuvar miha uLam yezhavE

(Meaning): In addition to their reflections on the meanings of
the three rahasyams , BhAgavathAs will give discourses for
others on the thousand names of the Lord ( SrIman NaarAyaNa ) ,
AchArya SthOthrams , IthihAsams and PurANams as well as
the sacred collect of the twelve AzhweArs to spend their time
sweetly during the fourth period of the day (SvAdhyAya Kaalam).

" TuthihaL " refers to Sahasra Naamams and other SthOthrams.
The SrI Sookthis of Sages like VyAsa and ParAsarA ( Muni IRayavar
uraihaL ) are considered by the BhAgavathAs as the heart of VedAntham
( aru Suruthiyin iRuthiyin idhayam ithu) . The sweet Tamil Vedhams of
AzhwArs are saluted as " Mann madhuram udhaviya MaRaihaL ). The BhAgavathAs
spread the messages of all of the above sacred scriptures in the manner
permitted by the SaasthrAs (Vidhi vahai paravuvar ) during the SvAdhyAya
Kaalam .

267: Fifth Time division of the Day /Yogam
*********************************
aRivilar talaimisai ayan adi yezhuthiya
poRi vahai yezhuvathu ohr poRi nalam uhavalar
uRuvathum udayathum ithu yena varuvathu
naRu malar mahaL Pathi nalam urum ninaivE 

(Meaning): At the time of birth , Brahma writes on the skull of
embodied jeevans about their future happenings . According to
those instructions etched on their skulls , the jeevan enjoys
the bhOgams in this Karma BhUmi. Those , who develop
VairAgyam and dsicriminating intellect discard these bhOgams 
and make false BrahmA's writings . Such bhAgavathAs will never
succumb to the temptations of the evanescent pleasures of the world
and instead will enjoy the sukhAnubhavam of the sacred feet of
the Lord of Kaanchi .They will experience as bliss the meditation on
those sacred feet in an uninterrupted manner . They will consider such
dhyAnam as appropriate for their true nature (Svaroopam ) and consider
that as their sacred most possession ( udamai).This is Yogam .

268. Yogam , the status enjoyed by the BhAgavathAs
******************************************   
peruhiya nala-nilai perumayin mihu mayal
uruhiya nilai manam uyar mahizh yezhum udal
soruhiya vizhi tihazh sudarmathi puhum iRai
karuhiya uru tihazh Kari Giri ariyE 

(Meaning): The BhaagavathAs will get deeply immersed 
during yOga Kaalam in the dhyAnam about the Lord of Atthigiri
and will be filled with bliss ; thier minds would have melted and
their hairs will stand on end due to that blissful experience ; their
eyes will be turned inward with tears of joy pouring outward . 
This type of dhyAnam to the accompaniment of  supreme bliss 
is known as Yogam .
