AchArya Hrdhyam suthram 224
The Sixth Ten Contd.
ellAm kaNNan.
"chith,achith, prApya,prApagapAsangaLai kai valindhu, kai kazhalak kaNdum , 
ellAm kidakka ninaiyAdhu aganRum, ALEr, mEAVEr , vUdhEr, enRu thadhEya 
shEshamAkkiyum,puRathittu kAtti enRu prasangikkil mudiyumpadi vittu.....
thandhai, thAi, vuNNunj sORu, mAnidhi, pUvai yAvaiyum onREA Akki.."

Summary:A. Thus, those which have to relinquished including the sentient, 
insentient means and ends were all left out by AzhwAr. Was these left out or 
withered off is the next question raised? These automatically withered off akin 
to a vessel falling from the hand of the sleeping person-vuRanguvAn kaippaNdam 
pOl nazhuvum. The point is that, these do not fall out as an effort but 
automatically spin off from AzhwAr, who did not consider these as of any value.

B.However, certain things are offered to srEvaishNavic devotees who are 
instrumental in making the soul reach the valuable "parama-padham".

C.This world is full of materialistic and physical pleasures. However, AzhwAr 
is afraid of these, as these will permanently distance oneself from the Lord 
Almighty. Hence, AzhwAr fears these and says to the Lord " do not distance me 
from You, by showing these".

D.The relinquished list was seen earlier. Now the list which are to be desired 
are given.
The Lord Almighty is AzhwAr's parents, He is the spiritual guide, He is all 
relations, He is wealth, He is all and everything to AzhwAr. He is food and 
water, He is the Reserve Fund.
Thus, He is considered by AzhwAr as everything. bhagwadh vishayam is the one 
ultimate.

pAsuram-s:
A. vuRanguvAn kaip paNdam pOle nazhuvum.
The fact that the thins relinquished actually withered off was seen.
"annai mEr aNi mA mayil sirumAn ivaL, nammai kaivalindhu" --thiru voi mozhi 
6-5-7--> In this dhivya dhEsam-tholai villi mangaLam- AzhwAr deems that all 
other relations are fictional and the Lord Almighty is the only natural 
relation. This is reflected from the term "nammaik kai valindhu" reiterating 
that sentient nexus is severed.

"izhandhadhu sangEa" ---thiru voi mozhi 6-6-1--> This thiru voi mozhi 'mAlukku' 
highlights the things that withers off from AzhwAr automatically. The list goes 
on, izhandhadhu sangEa, izhandhadhu mAmai niRamEa, izhandhadhu pEdAE, 
izhandhadhu paNbEa, izhandhadhu kaRpEA, 
izhandhadhu meyyEA, izhandhadhu sAyEa, izhandadhu mANBEA, thORRAdhu poRpEA, 
izhandhadhu kattEA , mentioned in each pAsuram-s respectively, conforming the 
fact the insentient things fall off.

"emmai onRum ninaithilaLEA" -thiru voi mozhi 6-7-9---> She does not consider me 
as an entity is the grievance by mother -thAi.

Thus , the sentient and insentient go out of AzhwAr while approaching the Lord 
Almighty.

B. Certain things are offered to devotees who would facilitate the road to 
thiru nAdu. 

"ponnulagu ALErO! bhuvani muzhudhu ALErO!" --thiru voi mozhi 6-8-1;] The worlds 
and the 
"neyyamar pAl adisil nichal pAlodu mEAvErO!"--thiru voi mozhi 6-8-2; ] good 
things are offered for His devotees.
C The worldly pleasures distance us from You.
"ennaip puRathittu innam keduppAyO'---thiru voi mozhi 6-9-8--------> By keeping 
me here, You are distancing me from You.
"pala nE kAttip paduppAyO'----------------- thiru voi mozhi 6-9-9-------->I am 
afraid of these ends. Do not distance me by showing these ends.

D. He is everything and everyone for AzhwAr.

The things that were left off were seen hereinabove. What is the state of 
AzhwAr now:

"vuNNum sORu, parugu nEr, thiNNUm veRRilai, ellAm kaNNan"---thiru voi mozhi 
6-7-1--- He is the food and water for AzhwAr.
"dhEva pirAnaiyEa thandhai thAi enRu adaindha"--thiru voi mozhi 6-5-11---> He 
is the parent of AzhwAr.
"vaitha mA nidhiyAm"--------> thiru voi mozhi 6-7-11----> He is the Treasure 
Chest, Reserve Fund, Wealth for AzhwAr.
"pUvai, pain kiligaL, pandhu , thUdhai , pUm puttilgaL, yAvaiyum , thirumAl, 
thiru nAmamEa kUvi ezhum"---> thiru voi mozhi 6-7-3 wherein even playthings 
spell out the divine name of the Lord, thus the Lord becoems everything and 
everyone for AzhwAr.


'ellAm kaNNan.
