SrI:

Dear BhakthAs:

Today we will study the second of the Paasurams
of Thirumangai Mannan on Lord DhaivanAyakan of
ThiruvahIndhrapuram ( Periya Thirumozhi: 3.1.2):

minnum aazhi amkaiyavan SeyyavaL uRai-taru ThirumArbhan
pannu-naan maRap-pall poruL aahiya Paran idam varai saaral
pinnu maadhavip-panthalil pedai varap-piNi avizh kamalatthu
tennavenRu vaNDu innisai mural taru ThiruvayIdhrapuramE 

" Minnum aazhi amkaiyavan " = He is the One with most radiant
chakram (Sudarsanam) in His hand .

SeyyavaL uRai taru mArbhan = He is the One with MahA Lakshmi
on His chest without separation (nithya vAsam on His
Vakshasthalam as SrInivAsan).

Naal maRai pal poruL Paran idam = This TiruvahIndhrapuram is 
the Home of the Lord , who is the SarvAntharyAmi of all chethanams
and achethanams as revealed by VedAs and their Upanishads .

Varai Saaral pinnu Maadhavi pandalil pedai vara = In the foot 
hills of Oushada Giri of ThiruvahIndhrapuram , the male honey bee
with his consort wish to unite in the interlocking canopy made
up of Maadhavi trees near the lotus ponds.

piNi avizh kamalatthu tenna yennu vaNDu innisai mural taru
ThiruvayeendhrapuramE = Inside the blossoming red Lotus flowers ,
the Honey bee couples wait to move on to their ultimate
resting place for the night ( Interlocking Maadhavi Pandal
nearby) and spend their time singing (ReemkAram) the sthOthrams
about the Lord of ThiruvahIndhrapuram . If the honey bees wait
without moving on , the lotus flowers will close their petals
for the night and the bees will be locked up for the night.
That place , where one hears Hari Naama sankIrthanam at
the lotus ponds and Maadhavi Panthal is indeed 
ThiruvahIndhrapuram.

Daasan , Oppiliappan Koil VaradAchAri SadagOpan

*************************************************
Additional PramANams and references:

1. Minnum Aazhi amkaiyavan: 
" Sphurath SahasrAra sikhAthi theevram Sudarsanam
BhAskara KOdi Tulyam ". That glittering Sudarsanam
(minnum Aazhi) with thousands of spurts /rays is
adorning the beautiful hand of the Lord ( amkaiyavan).

Minnum Aazhi: Sphuda TaDith jaala pinjara ( SrI Sudarsana
Ashtakam): The Sudarsanam is resembling in its radiant
golden color like the shining assembly of lightning bolts.

2. SeyyavaL uRai ThirmArbhan: (SrInivAsan): Lord's lakshanam
(defining mark ) is the residence of MahA Lakshmi on His
Chest ( ahalahillEn yenRu AlarmEl Mangai uRai Thiru Maarbhan).
Seyyaval is MahA Lakshmi , the HiraNya VarNai ( HirnyavarNAm
HariNIm ) , who engages in the act of PurushakAram (Seyya
vallavaL , Vaallabhyam ). 

3. Naal maRai pal poRul Paran : SarvAntharyAmithvam of the Lord 
as revealed by the four VedAs and their Upanishads--PramANams:
AntharyAmi Brahmam sections of BruhadhAraNyaka Upanishad,
3.7.8--3.7.27 celebrates ParamAthman/Paran as the immanent ,
indweller of all chEthanams and achEthnams .That antharyAmi 
Brahman is different from the JivAthman. As the AntharyAmi ,
the Supreme Lord is the inner controller of all sentients
and insentients.This antharyAmi Brahman concept is fundamental
to the Body-Soul relationship ( SarIra-SarIri Bhaava) developed
by AchArya RaamAnuja as the central plank of VisishtAdhvaitham.
This Upanishadic antaryAmi Brahman can not be fully seen by
the sense organs due to His infinite nature. This antharyAmi 
Brahman is seen and is seeable in all its splendor as Archai
at Thiruvaheendhrapuram as Dhaiva Naayakan for our benefit.

Other Upanishadic PramANams about AntharyAmi Brahman 
are found in SvEthasvatharam(I.9) KathOpanishat (I.3.1), 
Brahma Soothram (I.2.11:anupravEsam in created beings )
and ChAndhOgyam (VI.3.3).
