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.

(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.
