Subject: swAmy PiLLai ulagAsiriyar on His works -1

Dear SrEvaishNavites,
 
It is well known that SwAmy piLLai ulagAsiriyar has given us eighteen works termed as 'ashtAdhasa rahasyam'.
 
He has referred to some of his rahasyam-s in some of his other works.
 
Let us enjoy these, on the occasion of his 800 th thirunakshathiram -aippasi ThiruvONam which falls on 8.11.2005.
 
 
The mumUkshuppadi 27
'palam irukkumpadi pramEya sEkarathilum-archirAdhigadhiyilum sonnOam'
 
 
While detialing on the contents of Thirumandhiram, swAmy piLLai ulagAsiriyar mentions in the 26th sUthram that the Thriumandhiram contains - Athma swarUpam, the means and the end.
 
In the next suthram, given hereinabove, the 'palam' i.e. the end is taken up. Instead of detialing the end to be attained SwAmy piLlai ulagAsiriyar quotes two of his worsk namely a. PrAmEya sEkaram and b. archirAdhi -where the end or 'palam' is givine in detail.
 
SwAmy maNavALa mAmuni in the vyAkyanam mentions that the soul on following the final divine path 'archirAdhi' crosses the virajA and experiences bhagavath anubhavam and attains nithya kainkaryam, akin to the shEsha-shEAshi bhAvam. This is given briefly in 'pramEya sEkaram' and in detail in 'archirAdhi'
 
PrAmEya sEkaram
Quoting from prAmEya sEkaram, the final stage is mentioned therein as
' anantharam sarva-dhEsa,sarva-kAla,sarvAvasthOchithamAna sarvap-prakAra-kainkaryamuNdAm'
From Smt. SumithrA VaradharAjan's translation of PramEya sEkaram.

**He then involves himself in divine service to the lord in all places, at all times and in all states in all ways;

 

 archi-rAdhi

Quote from archirAdhi
'vazhuvilA adimai seiyya vEaNdum nAm' engiRa abinivEsathAlEa nAna dhEhangaLai pariharithu, ashEsha-shEsha vruthagaLilum anvayithu..nithya sUrigaLOdEA suzhndhirundhu mangaLA-sAsanam paNNi, amirdha sagarAndhara nimaknasarvavayanAik koNdu sarva kAlam irukkum.
 
That is,
To serve the Lord blemishlessly, the AthmA takes numerous forms and serves HIm. Alongwith nithya-SurigaL, performs mangaLA sAsanam to EmperumAn and eternally settles down in the ocean of amrudham of nithya kainkaryam.
