Srimathi Vaidhehi Wrote: I have heard that "pancha sUktam" comes in all the four vEdAs. Also people say vEdAs are ApouruSEya. Is there any parallel connection between this and the "puruSa sUktam"? My question is what's the connection between puruSa in apouruSEya and the puruSa in puruSa sUktam? What does "puruSa" appearing in two places refer to? Can you highlight on this? Can you tell the meaning of pAsurams 36 and 57 of URM (UPadEsa RaththinamAlai)? In fact I will be very happy if someone writes on entire URM. Though I understand a good tamizh,I should not terpret the meanings. If you have learnt URM(with vyAkhyAnams) under an AchAryA,I request you to post as and when time permits you. Unquote: It is not Pancha suktam which is in all the 4 vedas. It is only Purusha Suktam which is available in Rig, yajur and sama vedas. When we say Purusha suktam as 'apouruSEya', what we mean is The Purusha suktam is unauthored by any person. apouruSEya lieterally mean something that is not authored.(unauthored, ONLY from the mouth of the Lord) (It is nice to remember Kaliyan's words(Kaligalum , vedamum, needhi noolum, Karpamum, sorporul thanun... neermayinal arulseithu), Here Kaliyan talks of Gynapiran as one who has showered to this worold, Vedas, and other angaas of Vedas out of compassion to the human kind.) It is also clear from the verses of Purusha Suktam , that Purusha is none other than the Lakshmipathi, Sriman Narayana.. (refer verses starting 'Hreeshchate Lakshmi... ') The words 'Desikar' in verse 36 and 57 does not refer to Swami Desikan. If someone says so, he needs to recaliberate his Tamil grammer. It is used not as a proper noun. It is rather used as a common noun. The rough meaning of word 'Desika' is 'great and saintly person' Even in yathiraja Vimsathi, Swami MM uses words 'Desika', as 'Vachamagochara Mahaguna Desikagriya, Koorathinatha....' while referring to Acharyas like Swami Koorathalwan.
