yasOdhA to Lord
krshNA
vangEpurathu nambi to Sri
rAmAnujA
Neither aruLicheyal of AzhwAr-s nor their
vyAkyAnam-s of pUrvAchAryAs are exaggerations or imaginations. They are
emancipation of emotions.
The vyAkyAnam-s are felt and
experienced and understood from various incidents from the life of our
AchAryAs.
These are then sweetly brought out by
vyAkyAna karthAs for better understanding.
Lord krishNA who is the creator, sustainer
and destroyer of one and all, was caught in the act of picking up butter and was
tied to the vural. The Lord on seeing yAsOdhA wept, tears rolling out from His
tender eyes and had to undergo the punishment--AppuNDu.
Is it possible? The supreme Lord being so
silent and subservient to one of the jEvAthmAs?
Or is it just an emotional
narration?
vangEpurathu nambi was requesting
vudayavar to teach him thiru-ArAdhanam for quite some time. Due to some reason
or other this was not done.
One day, Sri rAmAnujA started teaching
thiruvArAdhanam to AzhwAn and sri hanumath dhAsar. Suddenly, emerged
therein vangEpurathu nambi. vudayavar felt guilty on two counts. Having
been requested, he should have taught him this. At least, this day when he was
teaching others, he should have called him for the study. Hence, he felt
extremely embarrassed and delicate. The great Sri rAmAnujA feeling guilty and
shy in front of his own disciples.
Here came the flash to Sri rAmAnujA. If
this is possible, this should have been the case with Lord krshNA. Similar
to this fashion that should also have occurred. Therefore, more than emotional
narrations, these experiences do explain to us the full import of pAsuram-s
and happenings to be seen in the right perspective.
This very incident has been described by
Sri periyavAchAn piLLai in the vyAkyAnam for the thirumozhi pAsuram, where
thirumangai AzhwAr narrates Lord krshNA bursting aloud with sobs when
caught stealing butter.
The pAsuram.
"oLiyA veNNai vuNDAn
enRu vuralOdAichi on kayiRRAl, viLiyA Arka AppuNdu vimmi azhudhAn"
6-7-4;
and there goes another incident being
narrated in thriumozhi.
