How did you realize that it is the glowing light in the Vedas?
Azhvar answers "Oh! It is me who has not realized it till today. Many
intelligent people have known this for long"
(ThAnoruvanAgi) The supreme lord himself attaining the ultimate state .The
ultimate state being when the divine qualities like sowseelyam, sowlabhyam,
vatsalyam etc of emperuman sprouts out. That is explicit when emperuman stood
as vamana "oru mAnikuralAgi" [thiruvai 1-10-11] rejoices swamy nammazhvar. The
almighty disregarded all his special qualities and became a beggar in the
footsteps of mahabali; He placed his divine feet on the heads of one and all
without any expectation or differentiation. Is this not ultimate
sowlabhyam/sowseelyam/vatsalyam?
(Angu sendru) Emperuman is all-powerful to wash out mahabali from his seat in
paramapadam but appreciating the one good quality, generosity in mahabali,
emperuman lowered himself and ran to mahabali's court.
(erunilaththai adipaduththa sEi) Emperuman measured the vast earth with just
single feet
(dharani edandeduththu) saved mother earth, who was immersed into the pralaya
waters and was jailed in the pathala loka. Taking the huge form as mahavaraha
(divine boar) emperuman saved bhoomi piratti and lifted her.
(AnoruvanAi) Though a huge one still a boar is an inferior animal ("mAsudambil
neervArA mAnamilAp pandriyAi") and hence once again emperuman exhibits his
sowlabhya/sowseelya qualities
(yeyiRRil tAngiyadhu) held in the tip of his nose.
(yAnoruvan EndrA arigindrEn allEn) The most ignorant me alone, has not known
this fact till today. But now I have realized it and given it out to the
world. But surely this is not my invention it has been known by many
intellects for long.
