SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesika namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

naNNum vaNNam eNNu- The way He needs to be
contemplated- Think on the same way (not in any other
manner). Think of Him always; thereby You can attain
Him soonest.   

Inamaaya vettun^eekki
  yEthaminRi meedhupOy,
vaanamaaLa vallaiyElva
  Nankivaazhththen nenchamE,
NYaanamaaki NYaayiRaaki
  NYaalamuRRu mOreyiRRu,
Enamaayi danthamoorththi
  yenthaipaadha meNNiyE.     (114)

 
my mind! The lowliest eight are removed; without any
suffering, reaching beyond the Cosmic Matter
(prakruthi) and attaining Paramapadham and be there
for ever joyfully as Swaraat; - if you are interested
in that and would like to be qualified for the same;
develop the jnAnam of performing bhakti yoga or
Saraganati (Prapatti) and prostrate, praise, bow down
and think of the divine Lotus Feet of My Father, My
Lord, Parampurushan Sriman Narayanan who appeared as
huge Boar that took the Mother Earth [on His single
horn] out of troubled waters; who is the indweller of
Surya (Sun).

If ever you wish to be qualified and be capable for
ruling the Paramapadham, praise Him as Swayam
prayOjanam; It is all not in our hands; It is His
pleasure that grants us the sane, Nothing is due to
our effort. We just need to pray to Him; surrender to
Him; My Father?s divine Lotus feet alone is the means
to get there- can also be interpreted. To be there,
think of His divine Lotus feet and meditate on the
same. If you do not do that (surrender), then it is
not possible to attain the upper world (Paramapadham)-
is also implied here. 

This is similar to ThiruvaLLuvar?s:

piRavi perunkadal neendhuvar neendhaar 
iRaivan aDi sErAdhAr.

[Those who surrender] Will cross the ocean of births ;
Will not cross
Those who do not surrender to the Lotus feet of the
Lord.

The lowliest eight- (eenamaaya ettu)- 
avdiyA, karma, vaasana, ruchi, prakruthi sambandham,
AdhyAthmika, Adhiboudhika, Adhidhaivika thaapas.. 

OR kaama krOdha, lOba, mOha, madha, maathsarya,
anjnAna, assoyai 
OR sthoola sareera [Gross body]- Pancha bhUthas,
puNya, paapam, and wealth
OR sookshuma sareera [subtle body]- Pancha bhUthas,
bAhyEndriyas, mind, prANan 

With no suffering- with no efforts- crossing the
virajA nadhI; [river virajA which is the barrier
between this world and upper world] 

How can the mind be there and reach Paramapadham ? the
query.. 

If I (your friend) need to be there, my friend oh
mind! -You need to be qualified and be capable of
taking this effort of thinking of the Lord - can also
be the interpretation. 

sooryadwArENa thE virajA: prauaanthi- The jeevan
passes thorugh the Soorya mandalam in his path towards
Paramapadham and hence Sun is referred to here by
AzhwAr. 

With the jnAnam of bhakti and prapatti performance ?
which dispels the inner darkness or ignorance; the
external darkness is dispelled by the Sun; 

Here jnAnapiraan- Adhi varahaa mUrthy is mentioned as
He took the whole universe on His horn thus declaring
everyone can be elevated by Me [if only they think of
me and surrender to Me once- sthithE manasi?.. aham
smaraami mad bhaktham nayaami paramaam gathim- I would
take them by myself to My abode]. 

mUrthy- the six qualities of ParavaasudEva mUrthy-
jnAna, bhala, aishwaryam, veerya, shakthi, thEjas. 

[Interestingly, Vaaraha is also referred to by
NammAzhwAr just six verses before completion of
Thiruvaymozhi ? similar to Thirumazhisai AzhwAr?s-
Thirucchandha viruttham also is of 120 verses. We are
at 114th verse].
