SrI: Dear BhakthAs of Lord DevanAthan : Today , we will study the Fourth Paasuram , where Swamy Desikan enjoys the dhivyAthma and dhivya MangaLa Svaropams of Lord DhaivanAyakan seated with His dear consort , MahA Lakshmi at Thiruvaheendhrapuram . The Fourth is a long paasuram having 36 lines set in the Tamil metre of NilaimaNDila AasiriyappA . We will study them one section at a time chosen by self-contained messages . Section 1( First 4 Lines ) : *************************** " Mazhayil yezhuntha mokkuL pOl vyaam azhiya onRu azhiyA Adiyavar Meyya ! aru maRayin poruL aaynthu yedukkum kaal Thiruvudan amarntha DhaivanAyaka nee ! " Oh Lord of all gods ! Oh DhaivanAyakA ! When one evaluates the essence of the message of the precious Vedas , the greatness of Your Vaibhavam as Sriman NaarAyaNan ( One who is never seperated from His divine consort ) becomes crystal clear . The quintessence of the Vedic message is that You are the eternal One even at the time of MahA PraLayam , when all worlds disappear like the transient bubbles formed from the downpour of heavy rain into a puddle .Even if the impermanent prapancham(world) is desstroyed during the time of PraLayam , You alone shine permanetly with no dimunition to Your Svaroopam , Roopam and GuNam. When one analyses all Veda , VedAntham , it becomes clear that You stand as the Supreme principle ( Para Tatthvam) as Sriya: Pathi ( The Lord of MahA Lakshmi). Context for these lines ************************** ChetlUr Swamy has pointed out that the above four lines stand in for the first two adhyAyams of Brahma Soothram ( essence of Poorva dhvikam ). The two lines at the very end of the Paasuram ( KoNDida Yemmai adaikkalam ulahil kaNDilam gathi Unai anRi maRRonRum ) summarize the third and the fourth chapters of Brahma Soothram(Uttara dhvikam) . The very last two lines of this Paasuram ( palvahai ninRa ninn paDi anaitthinum tholvahai kAttum tuNinthu thU maRayE ) according to ChEtlUr Swamy , this is the essence of SaarIraka Saasthram , where the chEthanams and achEthanams are reconized as the prAkArams of the Lord as ascertained by the Vedam . Thus the complete meaning of SaarIraka Saasthrams is enshrined in this fourth paasuram through the genius of Swamy Desikan with a few choice words . Section2 ( Lines 5-10): *********************** Ninn Thirutthanakkum Nee ThiruvAhi indhu tann nilavudan ilangu tanmainai nanthuthal illA nall viLakkAhi anthamil amudha aazhiyAi niRRi PaaRkkadal tannil pann maNi anna seer gaNam sErntha seelam yellai ilai Oh Dhaiva Naayaka! You shine with Your divine consort inseperably like the Moon with its rays and enhances the Vaibhavam of PirAtti , who magnifies Your glories as Her Lord . Oh Lord of Thiru Ayindhai ! You exist as the insatiable ocean of nectar for those , who sought Your refuge . You shine as inextinguishable rathna dheepam and bless the devotees with the wealth of true Jn~Anam . Just as the milky ocean houses many kinds of gems , You house the assembly of Your limitless auspicious guNams integrated into the limitless MahA guNam of Souseelyam ( mingling with even the lowly ones). Commenting on the passage (lines 7-8) , "nanthualillA nall viLakkAhi , anthamil amudha aazhiyAi niRRi " , Chetlur Swamy identifies " nanthutalilla" with Sathyathvam, "nall " with amalathvam , " ViLakkAhi" with Jn~Anathvam , " anthamil " with ananthathvam , " amudha aazhiyAi " with Aanandhathvam . Thus , the five Svaroopa nirUpaka dharmams associated with the Lord's inherent nature are hinted in the lines 7-8. Next , Swamy Desikan goes on to describe nirUpitha svarUpa visEshaNams of the Lord of Ayindhai.
