evai? Listening to
azhvar?s sweet words, ?kAppAi nee kAppadhanai AvAi nee vaikundam eepAyum
evvuyirkkum nee? the lord was highly pleased and hence wanted to hear more from
the mouth of azhvar. There is a
verse in Sanskrit, ?kim mrishtam sruthavachanam? that highlights the sweetness
and happiness in hearing the childish words of one?s kid. The same is repeated in tamil as,
?kuzhalinidhu yAzhinidhu enbar than makkal mazhalai sol kEtkAdhavar?. Here emperuman is very much interested
in hearing to the words of azhvar, his kid and hence requests azhvar to sing one
more paasuram. Azhwar with great
pleasure starts to sing this paasuram highlighting the sarvAthma bhAva of the
supreme lord. (neeyE
ulagellAm) ?vishvam nArAyanam
harim? declares the nArAyanuvAham.
Accordingly azhvar says the whole world is none other than emperuman,
Sriman nArAyanan (ulagellAm neeye).
?sarvam samApnOshi thathOsmi sarva:? [being spread everywhere you are
everything] declares the bhagavat geetha.
?thatsthatvAthanupasyanthi heyEka yevEdhi sAdhava:? [since you are filled
inside the jeeva sadhus consider both as one] declares the mahabharatha and
?avasthithErithi kAsakrisna:? says the brahma sutra. Since there is no stage when any object
in this world is ever away from emperuman (pruthakstithi) hence it is nothing
wrong to call him as the world. We
say a ?lean man? ?black pot? etc here lean or black is only a characteristic of
the man or pot still it cannot be separated from the man or the pot. Similarly the world and emperuman are
inseparable so it is nothing wrong saying ?neeyE
ulagellAm? (ninnarulE
nirpanavum) Only due to your grace one attains the moksha that is
permanent. The happiness attained
in the moksha loka is countless and hence azhvar says ?nirpanavum? (in
plural) (neeyE
tavadEvadEvanum) You are the lord of even those who have attained the post of
devas due to the great tapas they did. PramAnams

[bhAratham] [By

it be said separately you are Fire, the big mountains, all the 8 directions the
sun the moon and everything in this world.
All these are under your control. The Vishnu purana declares the same
as, ?jyOtheemshi
