AchArya Hrdhayam sUthram 228 

THE NINTH TEN

maraNamAnAl vaikuntham

The Lord does not have any needs. He has got everything fully fulfilled. AndAL 
also says in the 28th thiruppAvai -kuRai onRum illAdha gOvindhA. The Lord who 
has got everything , rescues one and all, when they are in distress. He helps 
in emergency. He is the ultimate refuge when problems surface. He is the one to 
be sought in crisis. Hence, His quality is termed as 'Abath sagathvam' in this 
onbadhAm pathu.

EArlier, it was observed that the Lord Almighty had displayed the nature of the 
soul to AzhwAr who also talked on this aspect,after realising it. What is the 
use of this? to act accordingly. Hence, AzhwAr desired the soul's nature -doing 
service at the divine feet of the Lord, immediately. There was a delay. The 
dealy accentuated the agony. The Lord gave a date for this. He assured that the 
final result will be granted to AzhwAr at the end of the physique of AzhwAr - 
'indhach sarErathin mudivilEa pEARu thappAdhu' --Salvation shall be granted to 
you at the finish of the journey of this body.

Having got this assurance, AzhwAr turned his eyes towards those who had still 
not reformed from his counselling and prescribed them appropriate means 
according to their capability. That is onbadhAm pathu.
