paartharuN mallara paarthilai yeninaruL
Paarunkaar solvar Arunachala
Meaning
Arunachala! Caught in this material world and struggling in its illusory web, I am floundering, awed by the deluded mind. Please bestow your side long glance and save me with your grace, because if you don’t save me, who else will put in a good word for me?
Explanation
Since the rays of the pure wisdom sun (sutha gnana surian) that is Arunachala is capable of dispelling the darkness of ignorance born of illusion with one glance Bhagavan says ‘paartharuN maal ara meaning look of grace that dispels ignorance stemming from illusion - maya).
If you, my father and mother, don’t root out my ignorance, who else will? If you, the protective lord, don’t do your job, who will put in a word on my case? (Parindhurai is to recommend/put in a good word).
