anRu nAn piRandhilEAn
thiru-mazhisaip-pirAn mentions in his
thriuch-chandha-vrutham "anRu nAn
piRandhilEan, piRandha pin maRandhilEan"
I was not born then and after being
born, I never forgot.
Nobody is not born after being born. Then what does
he says. ACcording to AzhwAr-s and pUrvAchAryAs they consider themselves as not
born till they comprehend and realise the meanings of thiru-mandhiram after
which they never forget Him and the mandhiram.
Hence, they deem themselves as not born till this
stage and deem as being born only at this stage.
Hence, "anRu nAn piRandhilEan, piRandha pin maRandhilEan"
This is what is referred to in mumUkshuppadi
24:
"pUrvAchAryargaL idhil
artham aRivadhaRku munbu, thangaLai piRandhadhAga ninaithiRArgaL;idhil
artha-gnAnam piRandha pinbu, "piRandha pin
maRandhilEan'engirapadiyEa,
ithaiyozhiya vEARonRAl
kAlakshEpam paNNiaRiyArgaL'
Our AchAryAs do not consider themselves as
born before understanding the meaning of thiru-mandhiram; They deem themselves
to have been born only after this .
Are we now deemed
to be born now?
