Sri Parthasarathi thunai

Srimathe rAmAnujaya Namaha

Sri vara vara munayE Namaha

Sri vAnAchala mahA munayE Namaha

 

In the twenty-sixth paasuram, ?mAlE! ManivannA!? puduvaiyarkOn kOdhai talks about the great muni who holds the tridandam in his hand.  Andal praises the bright face of the great teacher, Sri rAmAnuja filled with knowledge as the ?kOla vilakku?.  She calls the tridandam as the winning torch (jaya kodi).  Thereby andal does mangalasasanam to ethirajar as, ?kOla vilakkE! KodiyE ?

 

In the twenty-seventh paasuram, ?koodArai vellum seer? andal predicts the greatness of EmperumAnAr who will win over all those who were on the other side opposing him.  Not only will the lord Krishna wins over anyone who opposed him and make them his bhakthas, his greatest devotee rAmAnujar will also have the same capacity to make everyone his adiyars.

 

In the twenty-eighth paasuram, ?karavaigal pin sendru? andal admires the relationship, which is going to be built between emperuman and EmperumAnAr.  Periazhvar her father, thiruvaragan, her manavalan (husband), and all the divya desa emperumans who dissolved her in love mesmerizing her with their beauty (thirumAliruncholai azhagar, thiruvenkatamudayAn) are going to consider udayavar as their close relative and she herself is going to enjoy calling udayavar as her brother.  This thoughts in andal?s mind is reflected behind her words, ?vunthannOdu vuravEl namakku engu vozhikka vozhiyAdhu?

 

In the twenty-nineth paasuram, ?chittranchiru kale? andal shows the desire of empermAnAr (adisesha avatara) in doing divine service to the lord.  In rAmAvatharam adisesha did service to ramapiran as lakshmana.  In the Krishna avathara, adisesha became the elder brother balarama and now in this kali yuga he will take avathara as rAmAnuja to serve all the archa emperumans and hence andal says, ?vunakkE nAmAt seivOn? reflecting the mind of adisesha.

 

In the thirtieth paasuram, ?vanga kadal kadaindha? andal says, ?engum thiruvarul petru enburuvar?.  This thiruvarul is going to be granted by EmperumAnAr as he will be the ?Vishnu lOka mani mandapa mArgadhAyee? (the one who will show the route to srivaikundam).  People who are interested in attaining paramapadam as per azhvar?s words ?vaikundam puguvadu mannavar vidhiyE? may ask, ?Who is the emperuman who will grant moksha ?emperuman+yAr?  The answer is simple, EmperumAnAr.  Thereby sri andal all through her 30 paasurams in thiruppavai has kept in mind the future avatharam of EmperumAnAr and reflects the prediction in her words.

 

Azhvar EmperumAnAr Andal Jeeyer thiruvadigalE sharanam

 

Adiyen rAmAnuja dAsee
