SiRupuliyUr
சிறுபுலியூர் - அருள் மா கடல் அமுது
AzvAr-s are those who have lost themselves in the auspicious qualities of EmperumAn. Tirumangai AzvAr's exceptional attachment towards Divyadesam in well known. He is immersed in archavathAram-s.
The upanishad vAkyam "sarvam pUrNam sahOam:" - रस्र्वम् पूर्णम् सहोम् - expresses the fact that EmperumAn's qualities are at its full blossom in the archAvathArams.
Preaching What He Practices
Tirumangai AzvAr preaches to one and all to fall on the holy feet of SiRupuliyUr EmperumAn instead of approaching other deities who take to EmperumAn as their ultimate rescue and resort (kaLLam manam viLLum vagai karudhik kazhal thozhuvIr - கள்ளம் மனம் விள்ளும் வகை கருதிக் கழல் தொழுவீர்) - Periya Tirumozhi 7.9
The Ocean of Mercy
The Lord is full of compassion. His mercy has got no match. The mercy is an ocean in which Kaliyan is immersed. He aptly underlines this when he names this particular EmberumAn directlty with this quality. The Ocean of Mercy - क्रुपा समुद्रम् - The aruL mA kadaL amudhu - அருள் மா கடல் அமுது
Swami NampiLLai spurns, the Devas taste for amrudham, as amrudham isjust like salt essence (vuppuch sARU - உப்புச் சாறு) as compared to EmperumAn Himself.
Here in SiRu-puliyUr He is not just Ocean of Compassion but this is amrudham for you.
Feasting the beautiful gardens and fields in and around, the SiRupuliyUr temple is bedecked in such wonderful natural surroundings. Even today when prceeds from kollu-mAnkudi towards mayilAduthuRai - the picturesque sight can be cherished from a macro perspective.
The fiedsl and ponds are feather in the cap to the surroundings - vayal oru pAl, pozhil oru pAl - வயல் ஒரு பால் பொழில் ஒரு பால்.
