SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy ThirumangaiAzhwAr?s Periya
Thirumozhi. Today?s verse is Periya Thirumozhi 1.8.5 

kalayaami kalidhvamsam kavim lOkadhivaakaram
yaSya kObi: prakaaSaabir aavidhyam niHatham thama:

I meditate on the Poet, who is like the Sun for the
whole world, to destroy the darkness of ignorance
(a~jnAnam) with his word and who destroys the Kali
dhOsham. 

vaNkaiyaanavuNarkkunNaayagan vELviyilsenRumaaNiyaay,

eNkaiyaanimayatthuLLaan iruNYchOlaimEviyavembiraan,
thiNkaimmaathuyaitheertthavan
thiruvEngkadamadainNeNYchamE!    1.8.5

The One who appeared as the young Brahmachari dwarf
boy and begged mahAbhali with His small Hands (for the
whole universe ultimately)- the One who appeared as
Sri Raman and sent the arrow through seven trees 
(saala vruksham) at a stretch- the One who lives in
Thirumaaliru~nchOlai- the One removed the sorrow of
GajEndran elephant and granted mOksham to the animal-
is showing Himself at ThiruvEmkatam. Oh mind! Reach
there.

vaN kaiyaan- the strong armed Mahaabhali or the king
of strong armed asurAs; Mahaabhali?s audhaaryam was so
much that he is revered as vaNkaiyaan; That?s why the
Lord did not wish to take avathAram and fight to get
back the three worlds. Instead, he wished to utilise
his audhaaryam and retrieve the worlds to give back to
Devendran. 

He went begging for three measures of ?maN? [the
earth].. He Himself is the Lord of the entire
Universe; all worlds; Lord of everyone and everything.
He owns them; It is His property and He went begging
for the three measures of His Feet from Bhali? what a
sowseelyam.. Anything He does for the sake of His
asrithars? devendran pleaded to the Lord Upendran
[Sriman Narayanan] and thus He took this Vaamana
avathAram for Devendran?s sake. 

Vyakhyana Chakravartthi Sri Periyavacchan Pillai adds
here: Like the cotton that changes its form and shape
and transforms itself or is changed by others- into
twelve types, the maN (meaning the matter- or
prakruthi) is also changed by the Lord different forms
or types. 

The cotton forms: seed; rolled into the ball; gets to
thread form; woven; formed into a cloth; washed;
ironed; worn and then torn? etc.. 

The matter undergoes such forms or changes [by the
Lord]:

The matter is in subtle form inside Him; He brings it
out; It takes into mahath and the elements; Also the
seven worlds (upper and below); He houses jeevans into
these five elements as their sareeram; He swallows the
matter during dissolution; and spits out during
evolution; He lifts the Universe on His teeth
[eeayiRRu] (during Varaaha avathAram) and keeps in
vayiRu [during praLayam].

Such a Master who owns this universe goes to beg from
this Bhali for three measures. What a sowseelyam! ?
enjoys Sri Periya Vacchaan PiLLai. 

He saved the strong armed Gajendran [The One who the
string trunk] from the crocodile.. and granted mOksham
to the elephant. The elephant is reported to have
fought with the crocodile for 1000 years and was also
supported by its relatives and family members. But all
in vain and finally yelled for the Primordial Chief
[Adhi moolamae] He rushed to save the elephant
immediately and never asked as to why it did not call
for His help before? Also He felt guilty that He did
not come earlier and let the elephant be saved. That
sorrow [kuRai] of the Lord is now resolved as He is
ever ready at ThiruvEnkatam standing for our sake and
waiting so that he can rush immediately. 

He is the Lord of Attapubhuyakaram divya desam {lord
with eight hands]; He is the Lord of
Thirumaaliruncholai; And he is ThiruvEnkatamudaiyaan.
