The primary quality of emperumAn highlighted is -kAraNathvam.

Text: " I. sOrAdha mUvA vEr mudhalAi vithAi vulagam padaithavan engiRa chith 
achith thraya thri-vidhamAna kAraNam Anavan; II. aRiyAdhana aRivikka, III. 
vuLLam thEARith IV. thUmanam V. maruLil VI. ennum gnAna palamAna oLik koNdA 
mOksham thEadi VII. vAda...."

Summary:The Lord who is the three type of causes- thri-vidha kAranan - 
nimitham, upAdhAnam and sahakAri of the three worlds-achith and also the cause 
for bhaktha, nithya and mukthAs, imparted immense knowledge to AzhwAr. AzhwAr 
as a sequence to this desired to reach His abode and be with the nithya-sUri 
ghOshti but the desire did not get fulfilled and yearned for this-vAda.

The relevant pAsuram-s are:
I.
sOrAdha epporutkum AdhiyAm sOdhi-thiru voi-mozhi 2-1-11;
mUvAth thani mudhalAi---> thiru voi mozhi 2-8-5;
epporuktum vEar mudhal Ai vithAi--> thiru voi mozhi 2-8-10;
poruL enRu iv vulagam padaithavan pugazh mEal ---> thiru voi mozhi 2-10-11;

The Lord is all the three causes of the three chiths-bhakthar mukthar and 
nithyar; He is the three type of achiths viz:prAkrudham, aprAkrudham and kAlam. 
The three type of cause are main cause -upAdhAnam ; sahakArika kAraNam - 
anciliary cause; nimitha kAraNam- the cause of the cause or the sankalpam of 
the Lord in creation.For anything the three causes are different. But, the Lord 
decides to create the world -nimitha kAraNan; He becomes a part of them through 
His omni-presence- hence, upAdhAnam and He also is a part of creation process 
and hecne,sahakArika kAraNam. Thus the prime quality in this ten being all 
causes of all is explained.


II. aRiyAdhana arivitha athA=--> thiru voi mozhi 2-3-2;----> The great 
knowledge imparted by the Lord to Azhwar is brought about.


III. adiyai adaindhu vuLLam thEARi --->thiru voi mozhi -2-6-8;-->The resultant 
effect of such knowledge is mentioned here. AzhwAr gets a clear mind and gets 
to know what is what.

IV. thUmanathananAi piRavith thuzhadhi nEnga----> thiru voi mozhi 2-7-8--> The 
lack of knowledge and the disadvantages attached with the births are removed.

V maruLil vaN kurughUr vaN satakOpan--thiru voi mozhi 2-10-11---> The lack of 
knowledge and the related demerits completely being warded of Azhwar..

VI. kaLippum kavarvum aRRu piRappup piNi mUppiRappaRRu-oLikkOnda sOdhiyamAi 
-adiyArgaL kuzhAngaLai vudan kUduvadhu enRu kolO.."2-3-10.---> AzhwAr on 
realising and being on the verge of release from births yearns for the 
togetherness with the nithya sUrigaL in the bright parama-padham.

VII. vAdi vadum- thiru-voi-mozhi 2-4-1;----> indicating AzhwAr's mental agony 
on not getting the desire immediately.
