Fifth PAsuram -EDu (eidhak kUvudhal AvadhEA)

eidhakoovudhal
 
avathArikai:
 
EmperumAn: I have displayed you the blessings towards the devotees  in preference to others-Asridha paksha pAdham- and also Myself in this divyadesam in Sri varamangaLa nagar.You are screaming "engu eidhak kUvuvanOA'- when i will attain?  as if you have not got anything till now?
 
AzvAr: Of course, I am not denying all this. But I am not satisfied with just that.
 
eidhak kUvudhal AVadhEa enakku-
(note 1)
AzvAr:
 Oh! EmperumAn how can you think that I will indulge in SAdhAnAnushtAnam?
EmperumAn:
How will I know whether you can do or not capable of taking efforts?
AzvAr: Don't I know myself.
Those who are unshakeable conviction that He is the means -avanAleA pEARu-
 
The owner should retrieve the owned. Here it appears to be reversed.
 
It is like keeping a mountain on the head of a sparrow-putting means on the head of AzvAr
 
evva thevvath thuLAiyumAi ninRu kai thavangaL seiiyum karu mEan ammAnEA:EmperumAn, YOu are capable of entering into the hostile camp -be it whatever type- and adapt accordingly _ that is like Buddha vEsham and removed their interest in orthodox procedures.
 
 
kai thavangaL seiyyum karu mEani ammAnEA: This is achieved by words, acts and deeds which distance themselves from orthodox practices.
 
seidha vEALviyar- (note 2)
 
Those who have realised the nature of EmperumAn are deemed to have completed all sorts of VEALvi blemishlessly.
(vidhuk krishNAm brAhmanAs: thathvathoyEA thEShAm rAjan sarva yagjnAs samApthA)
 
vaiyth thEVar-Those who reside in this divya desam perform kainkaryam-s.
 
EmperumAn: Having settled down here for your sake, HEy Azveer! you are telling that I have not done anything?
 
AzvAr:Yes, I do realise that but that is not enough. Grant me kainkaryam eternally at YOur divine feet. Now it is only in words.(Refer 3)
 
 
Notes
1.AzvAr told the words eidhak kUvudhal AvadhEa enakku.When the owner should come and retrieve his possession, Oh it is reverse here. I am being your possession it is You who should come to rescue but it is I who is screaming.
 
2.The words seidha vEaLviyar literally means those who have performed all penances and yagnams. However, the word 'vidhuk krishNam..' is quoted by Sri Nampillai that those who have realised the nature of EmperumAn are deemed to have completed all these perfectly.
 
3.Here, AzvAr requests for kainkaryam at the feet of EmperumAn eternally. Though the grace of EmperumAn has been showered, this is in the stage of words now. AzvAR requests for actual kainkaryam
