Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
Now the meaning of "mAm" is explained.
The Lord says 'mAm' refering to Himself - who is focused
on protecting everyone; who can be made to do pleasing
things for His devotees; who looks for approval by His
devotees; who takes His devotees sins as pleasing acts
(so they don't have to be afraid); who is the refuge for
His devotees; who never gives up His devotees ("ennadiyAr
adhu seyyAr") even if Periya Piratti, who normally
mediates for them, were to point to their sins and ask
that they be rejected ("thAmaraiyALAgilum sithag-
uraikkumEl") and stands alone and protects them.
Since He, who has taken avatar in this world and is
present in a form that is visible to everyone (vibhava),
refered to Himself as 'mAm', it rejects His para and
vyUha forms which are not visible being remote in space
and His being inside devatas such as agni and indra in
antharyAmi form and being worshipped by those using
other means. It also shows the difference of this form
from them.
