SrI:

 Dear SrI VaradarAja BhakthAs :

 Let us enjoy the deep Upanishdhic and SampradhAya
 Vishayams housed in the second Paasuram :

   270. Aru-MaRayai Oozhi tanil kAtthAr vanthAr
               athu tannai anRu Ayanukku aLitthAr vanthAr
           dharuma vazhi azhiyAmal kAppAr vanthAr
               ThAmarayALUdan ilangum Taathai vanthAr
            ThriuvurayAyAit-Thaamm PoruLAi nirpAr vanthAr
                ThiruvaruLAl sezhum kalaikaL tanthAr vanthAr
             maruvalarkku mayakku uraikkum MaayOr VanthAr
                 vAnn yERa vazhi tanthAr vanthAr thAmE

   The Rakshathvam ( protective aspect ) of the Lord
   echoed in the AkAram of PraNavam is  elaborated in this
   Paasuram .

Rahasyathraya SlOkam reminding us of the Lordship of SrIman
NaarAyaNa-VaradarAjan in Rakshakathvam has to be reflected upon
in the context of this second Paasuram:

thrANE Swamithvam ouchithyam nyAsAdhyA: sahakAriNa:
pradhAna hEthu: svAtantrya-visishtA karuNA vibhO:

(meaning ): It is befitting for Him to be the Master in protecting
ChEthanams . Prapatthi and the like are the saha-kAris ( udhavik-
kAraNangaL). The main kaaraNam(PradhAna hEthu)  however is
our Lord's dayA intertwined with His SvAtantryam ( Independence ,
unquestioned Lordship).

Let us now summarize the meaning of the second Thiruchinna Maalai Paasuram
************************************************************
   Lord VaradarAjan is the Supreme Being , who  protected
   the VedAs during the time of MahA PraLayam from destruction
   and performed upadEsam on them for Brahma    Devan  duirng
   the time of Naimitthika Srushti . He is the One , who protected
   the dharma mArgam from destruction and took many avathArams
   to provide protection to the SanAthana dharmam . He is never ever
   seperated from Periya PirAtti ( PerumdEvi ThAyAr) and stands
   as arTa savaroopam , while His divine consort stays as Sabdha
   Svaroopam (Vaak) . He is the Lord , who blessed the Maharishis
   to create dharma Saasthrams , IthihAsams and PurANams as
   UpabrahmaNams to elaborate on and clarify the meanings of the VedAs.
   He is the powerful Lord , who banishes NaasthikAs and Kudhrushtis
   (avaidhikAs) to different kinds of narakams after enchanting them
   with mohana Saasthrams . He is the benovolent krupA Saagaram ,
   who revealed Bhakthi Yogam and Prapatthi yOgam as the means for
   Moksham through His Saasthrams. Our Lord of such Vaibhavam as
   a protector of VedAs , dharma mArgam , VaidhikAs has now
   arrived amidst us as inferred from the SunAdham of  His Thirucchinnam.

 Special Notes on individual Lines:
 ***************************
 Line 1: " aru-marayai Oozhi tanil kAtthAr vanthAr"
 aru-maRai refers to the precious and scared VedAs.
 These precious Veda mantrams are essential for the creation
 of the world with its multifarious chEthanams and achEthanams
 by Brahma DEvan according to srushti kramam. . When the VedAs
 were  are exposed to danger during PrAkrutha PraLaya Kaalam ,
  the time during which the entire world reaches  layam in ParamAthmA ,
 our Lord protects the Vedams for the benefit of BrahmA during the time of
 Naimitthika Srushti .There are four kinds of PraLayam ( Naimitthikam ,
 PrAkrutham , Aadhyanthikam and Nithyam).The PrAkrutha PraLayam is
 the one at the end of the life of BrahmA , when the charAcharams and
 Pancha BhUthams attain layam inside ParamAthmA . Srushti is of
 three kinds: PrAkrutha Srushti , Naimitthika Srushti and Nithya Srushti .
 The Srushti Kaaryam done by the Lord using Moola Prakruthi to
 create Mahath, ahankAram and related tatthvams is PrAkrutha Srushti .
 At the end of BrahmA's day , there is a praLayam after which Srushti
 starts and that Srushti is Naimitthika Srushti . VedAs are needed then
 by Brahma Devan for carrying out his assigned responsibilities of
creation and the Lord  presents the VedAs to Brahma DEvan
for enabling Srushti.

 There are times when BrahmA loses the VedAs (due to carelessnes
 to asurAs ) and the Lord goes after the asuras , destroys them and
 brings the VedAs back and instructs Brahman again in the form of
 a Hamsam. This is the vaibhavam of "Oozhi tanil aru-maRayai kAkkum
 Vaibhavam " saluted in the first line.

 Line 2: Athu tannai Ayanukku anRu aLitthAr vanthAr " .This refers to
 Lord  VaradarAjan blessing Brahma dEvan with the VedAs during
 the time of Naimitthika PraLayam . The glories of the Lord as the Protector
 of the VedAs , Creator and the  Dissolver of the  World is saluted by
 Sage ParAsarar in VishNu PurANam:

 Sa yEva Srujya: Sa yEva Sarga karthA
 sa yEva pAtthayathi cha Sa yEva PaalyathE cha
 BrahmAdhyavasTAbhi: asEsha Moorthy
 Vishnu : Varishta: VARADHO  VarENya:

 He enters in to BrahmA (anupravEsam) and facilitates
 the creation according to the rules of the Lord's VedAs.

 Line 3: " Dharuma Vazhi azhiyAmal KaappAr vanthAr ":
 Our Lord protects the way of SanAthana Dharmam
 through His many avathArams , when Dharma mArgam
 is threatened ( Dharma samsTApanArtthAya sambhavAmi
 yugE yugE ).At the end of Kali yugam , He incarnates as
 Kalki and destroys all avaidhikAs and adharmikAs and starts
the cycle of the four Yugams once again .

 Line 4: " ThaamarayALUdan ilangum ThAthai vanthAr" :
 The SarvalOka SaraNyan , who is the Father of the entire
 universe , who shines with MahA Lakshmi in an inseperable
 manner has arrived now in our midst to the accompaniment of
 Thirucchinna oli. They are a unique couple (MiTunam with joint
 Parathvam/Supermacy) and they are never seperated from each
 other as understood from the VishNu PurANa sLokam :

 NithyaivEshA JaganmAthA VishNO : SriranapAyini
 YathA SarvagathO VishNu: TaTaivEyam DhvijOtthama

 She is the eternal , Mother of the Universe , the auspicousness
 Of VishNU and is never ever seperated from Her Lord .
 In the same manner as VishNu is pervasive in every object of
 creation , She is also seen there together with Him . That is the Tathvam
 of the Lord being resplendent with the lotus lady ( ThAmarayAL).

This Sarva RakshaNa DhIkshithan , SrIman NaarAyaNan is hailed
as the Rakshakan accompanied by His Divine Consort , MahA Lakshmi
in all siddhAnthams:

LakshmyA Saha HrusheekEsO DEvyA KaaruNyaroopayA
Rakshaka: SarvasiddhAnthE VedAthapi cha geeyathE

 Line 5: " ThruvurayAyAi Thaamm PoruLAyAi niRppAr VanthAr"
 Our Lord and His DEvi are like the union of arTam and Vaak.
 Our Lord is the arTa svaroopan, while MahA Lakshmi stands
 as the  Sabdha Svaroopi (  arTO VishNu: iyam VaaNi according to
 VishNu PurANam ).

 Line 6: " ThiruvaruLAl sezhum KalaikaL tanthAr vanthAr": Our Lord
 is Parama DayALu and is propelled by His KrupA to bless the Maha Rishis
 like  ParaasarA , VyAsa with  the nourishing Dharma Saasthrams , IthihAsams
 and PurANams as UpabrahmaNams to intrepret/comprehend the meaning of Veda
 Manthrams (MaRais) .

 Line 7: " Maruvalarkku Mayakku uraikkum MaayOr VanthAr" :
 For those , who are NaasthikAs and avaidhikAs , Our mysterious
 Lord creates enchanting Saasthrams that result in the practioner
 ending up in narakams like LavaNam ( for those who put down
 and deny Vedams as PramANams ).  He is Maayavan and creates
 the tantalizingly tempting false Saasthrams for the avaidhikAs that
 lands them in cruel narakams , where they repent and return to earth
 in different bodys to enjoy their karma phalans.

As MaayA Mohanan , he induces PaashaNdis through special
ukthis ( utterances) to follow avaidhika mathams like Bouddham,
Jainam and leads them on to their own demise.

 Line 8: " VaanERa Vazhi TanthAr vanthAr thAmE "
 Our Lord through His VarAha , Raama and KrishNAvathAra
 charama slOkams , showed us the Parama Padha SopAnam or
 the path to ascend to Mosham via archirAdhi mArgam. That path
 (means) is the SaraNAgathy mArgam .This path to SrI Vaikuntam
is elaborated in the 21st chapter of SrImadh Rahasya Thraya Saaram
( Gathi VisEshaadhikAram) and PhalAdhyAyam of SrI BhAshyam

 Lord VaradarAjan 's arrival in our midst of His BHakthAs
is announced by the sweet  sound of His Thirucchinnam .
