SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy Thirumangai AzhwAr?s Periya
Thirumozhi. Today?s verse is Periya Thourmizh 1.8.9. 

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. 

pEsuminthirunNaamamettezhutthum sollinNinRu, pinnarum,

(2)    1.8.9

Emperumaan- The One who protects and saves from their
Birth cycles, those who utter Parama bhOgya, most
Divine Thiru ashtaakshara manthram always- stays at
ThiruvEmkatam which is fully surrounded by the lovely 
gardens full of most fragrant flowers, which is
standing like the Thilakam (pinnacle- Zenith- the
Highest point) of all worlds. Oh mind! Reach here!
(here AzhwAr says in the first line "pEsumin
Thirunaamam ettezhutthum solli" -means: Utter!
(pEsumin) the most divine Ashtaaksharam; it is also to
be read as "pEsum in Thirunaamam"  means: 
Utter (pEsum) the sweetest to the tongues of those who
utter (in) Thirunaamam ettezhutthum (ashtaaksharam).

Thiru ashtaakshara mantra is the essence of all
mantras. 

HaritAsmruti (3.65) declares "Whatever a man ought to
know is all contained in ashtAksharA, that  is  the 
VedAs  viz. Rg, Yajur, sAmam & the  atharvan  and 
other   collection of  words".The  meaning(s) {whether
 considered as  one  sentence, two or three  etc etc }
that arise out of ashtAksharam  is  the  final essence
of  all vedAs. All   the tattvA, hitA & purushArtA is
made crystal clear by  it. One will remain in peace &
with ecstasy be  performing the kainkaryams to the
Divya  Dampati, since all  the ignorance, confusions
etc arising out  of studying   the views  of various 
philosophers[vedic /non-vedic) on one?s own  accord  &
building  castles  of  ignorant  speculations  being  
wiped  off  by  the esoteric  meaning(s)of 
ashtAksharam -  the nectar (amrutam) of knowledge
churned  from  the  sea  of  upanishads. That?s why
sAstrAs glorify ashtAksharam to such a extent.  

The  meanings of ashtAksharam once understood will
yield the faultless jn~Anam. The true knowledge  with 
no doubts  whatsoever, with unshakable  faith & with
ample clarity on UpAyA (means)& Upeyam (goal to be
attained) will surely  evolve out after understanding 
the divine meanings of ashtAksharam. [from Sri Anand
Karalapakkam Swami?s article] 

Such Omnipotent Lord Paramapadha nAthan is here at
ThiruvEntakam. Oh Mind Reach there-says AzhwAr.
