Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

In Nachchiyar Thirumozhi 13-6, Andal refers to the Lord as
"kodiya kadiya thirumAl". Nammazhvar too refers to Him as
"aruLAdha thirumAlArkku" in Thiruvaymozhi 1-4-7.

The earlier acharyas had explained this as "Nammazhvar is
refering to Thayar ('thiru mAl') as he is thinking of Him,
as She is the one who mediates on behalf of the chetanas 
to the Lord."

Nanjeeyar had a doubt about this and asked Pillan the
following question: "We need Her mediation to obtain His
grace. However, here Azhvar is refering to the fact that
He is not giving him His grace. So, why refer to Her at
this juncture?"

Pillan replied "He learned how to ignore Azhvar and 
torture him, from Her. Therefore, it is alright to refer
to Her along with Him at this time".

Nanjeeyar then checked with Bhattar about this explanation.

Bhattar replied "Azhvar's state is that, to reach the 
Lord, one has to go through Her. Since, She is responsible
for attaining the Lord, it is ok to say that Azhvar 
is angry with Her when He is unattainable".
