SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesika namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

AzhwAr assures the mind that SarvEshwaran now would
save us as we are His property that belongs to Him and
we have placed the burden of the protection of ours to
Him already; Hence do not be under the wrong
impression that hereafter we need not praise Him and
bow down to Him.. Please continue to do so as it is
Swayam prajOjanam.

atthanAhi annayAhi aaLum EmperumAnumAi
otthu ovvAtha pal-piRappu ozhitthu nammai AatkkoLvAn
MutthanAr MukundhanAr puhunthu namm uLL mEvinAr
yetthinAl idar kidatthi yEzhai nenjamE ?        (115)

The 115th paasuram (Maanasa SambhOdhanam) is a moving
one: Oh my poor mind worried about lack of upAyam to
attain Moksha Siddhi! The blemishless Lord
(MutthanAr), who is the granter of the boon of Moksham
has made sure that the incongruous births [that have
go no connection to each other] full of suffering will
not happen any more and has decided to accept us as
His servants. For that purpose, He has entered into us
as the Father instructing us on the upAyam; as the
compassionate Mother, who grows that Jn~Anam and as
the AchAryan who delivers us at the feet of the Dhivya
Dampathis. From here on , Oh My mind ! where is the
reason for your worries about enjoying Saayujyam ? why
are you caught and have fallen into this ocean of
sorrows?

The Lord is our Swami; It is true that He is ever
ready to protect us and save us and grant us
salvation. He is always thinking of us like the
Father, Mother and Acharya who too always think of
their children (and sishyas). The Iswara is the Sheshi
of all (Mater of all) and we are the sEshans; We are
just like the infants and He is the Mother; He is
entitled to protect us like the Mother; Doe it befit
our essential nature to cry bitterly and worry about
our sorrows? We have placed our burden at His Feet.

He is the anthryaami in Mother, Father and Acharya and
the mother teaches values to children in infant stage;
Father teaches the Vedas, sthOthras, perform
brahmOpadEsam etc.. The Acharyan performs pancha
samskaaram, BharanyAsam for the disciple; Thus, the
Lord being the indweller in them, acts through them to
save us- His children. Thus He is our mAthA, PithA and
Guru? When such is the case? Why are you trapped in
this samsaaric ocean? Because You had not learnt and
performed the requisite means (upAyam). He is ever
ready to save us and take us to His Abode; BUT He
expects us to do little minor effort of placing
ourselves at His Feet (as an excuse) so that He is not
blamed for partiality. So, if it is taken like that he
would save everyone on his own without any of our
effort as He is Parama kaaruNikO Bhagawaan, then it
results in the eventuality of all people being
eternally liberated. If it is stated that the Lord can
do on account of His swatanthrya, then the Lord will
be subjected to the defects of partiality and cruelty.
So, He is thus the performer of Divine Justice based
on our karma and Bestower of Divine Grace (for those
who perform Saranagati).

Thus all that He expects is vaNangi, vaazhtthudhal-
Surrender and praise Him (Utter Dwayam). Thus there is
something one needs to do; and since we did not do, we
are here, oh mind! Suffering in samsaaric affliction.

Thus atthAnAy- He has entered into us as the Father
(gariyAn Brahmadha: PithA) instructing us on the
upAyam; Annaiyaay- as the compassionate Mother, who
grows that Jn~Anam and as the AchAryan who delivers us
at the feet of the Dhivya Dampathis

Alum empiraanumaay- He wills for eternal kaimkaryam of
ours at His Feet and enables us to do the upAyam
[means] thereby; 
etthinAl idar kidatthi?- why are you now worried if we
will get mOksham? Maa sucha: (Not to worry- AzhwAr
says to the mind] 

mutthanaar- Unaffected by paapams; untouched by
paapams; He is the Lord who is not touched by
imperfections;- akilahEyaprathyaneekan. 
He is Mukundhan- meaning: He is Above and Beyond even
Nithyasooris. Those who go to Him (pray to Him) also
get mOksham granted by Him;
