 AdhikAra Sangraham.They deal with  Tatthva Thraya chintanAdhikAram 
and the glories of the Lords of SrIrangam, ThiruvEnkatam and Kaanchi
respectively.

80) The way in which Tatthvams rest in the Lord's Body 
*******************************************

of the Hasthigiri hill and has the chEthana , achEthana tatthvams
as pieces of jewelery and weapons on His sacred body.
There He stands as to delight the hearts of every one.

The key words of this paasuram are : " Garudan uruvAm 
MaRayin poruLAm KaNNan , Karigiri mEl ninRu anaitthum
KaakkinRAn " ( The Lord , who is the meaning of the VedAs ,
which are the body of Garudan , standa atop Hasthigiri and
protects the Universe and its beings ).

As the Lord stands on top of the Hasthi Giri, He displays on
His sacred ThirumEni many types of Jewels and weapons ,
which are associated with all the Tathtvams . The links

81) The Greatness of SrIrangam: SthAna VisEsha adhikAram: Part I

The dhivya dEsam of SrIrangam has the eternal presence of
Lord RanganAtha and is like the embodiment of the Lord's
compassion that has taken the form of insatiable nectar
( AarAdha aruLamudham pothintha Koil); SrIrangam was
bequeathed to King IshvAku by Brahma DEvan ( AmbhuyatthOn
AyOddhi mannaRkku aLittha Koil); It has the vaibhavam as
a temple worshipped by Lord Raamachandran Himself during
His Vibhava avathAram ( tOlAtha tani veeran thozhutha Koil);

his support to Lord Raamachandra in the fight against his brother

which can bless the worshippers with anugrahams that can not be

( sezhu maRayin mudhal yezhutthu sErntha Koil ) ; It has the power

all PuNyams ( PuNNiyatthin puhal ithu yenap-puhazhum veRppu); 
ThiruvEnkatam is the holy hill , where all the bhOgams enjoyed in
Parama Padham are made within the reach of the residents of
this earth( PonnulahiR-bhOgamellAm puNarkkum veRppu);
This is the auspicious hill desired as a placeof  residence by 
the DEvAs and the residents of this BhUlOkam ( ViNNavarum

This is the dhivya dEsam of Hasthi Giri , where the Lord stands
to destroy totally all the sins of those , who seek His protection 
(Bhatthar vinai thotthu aRa aRukkum AtthigiriyE) . This is 
the dhivya dEsam of the Lord , who revealed His heroism 
by cutting down the ten heads of RaavaNan with an arrow
of unmatched power  in  a great battle at LankA . This is 
the dhivya dEsam of the Lord , who showed His meekness 
and soulabhyam by  going after  the VeNNai and curds
that His mother YasOdhA had set aside and got threatened
by her for consuming them secretly ( matthu uRu tayir vaithathu
meyttha VeNNai uNNum Atthan idam AtthigiriyE ).
