What is Swami Nammalwar’s Message?

Do not waste time and energy on ever-changing realities where it is not needed. Reflect on the purpose of what you do, see, think everyday. The only eternally existent and never-changing reality is God. Everything else changes. Fruit for example changes over time. Your desire to relish the fruit forever will not be satisfied because its nature is to deteriorate over time. The same is the case with loving something else or someone…

But why can’t I love things for the duration they exist?

You can. However, the purpose of your existence is to spend your energy towards that which is eternal, otherwise you will continue to be bound to this world and go through pains until you realise that attaching yourself to eternal reality keeps you eternally at peace, not the ever-changing realities.

Become ‘selfish’ and lovingly accept the ‘king’ of all the worlds, God into your heart and aim for serving Him because He is eternally existing. A:lwars ‘proudly’ ask God, ‘tell me who is ‘big’ between the two of us, is it You because You are the biggest of everything else or is it my desire because I have You in my heart?’ Not everyone in this world is able to accept the mightiest and most magnificent thatthva, reality God into their hearts!

God belongs to everyone, Is Nammalwar being ‘selfish’ holding Him in his heart?

It is ‘selfish’, but this ‘selfishness’ is accepted and worshiped because he humbly accepted God along with all His vibhu:thi,the entire existence – not just God alone in his heart.
If God alone is in your heart without His devotees and His vibhu:thi, He will ‘worry’ about those who are away. Thus, In order to serve God in your heart, invite God along with all His sampada, vibhu:thi.

Where do I focus now, on Him or His creation – i.e. rest of the beings?

Both and together. Don’t restrict your vision at the material, take it forward to the eternally existing support of the material, God. Don’t restrict your love to someone, encompass the root source of all emotions, God into your heart. Don’t fix your goal at money-making, take it forward to its utilisation to the vibhu:thi of God, the world and the samastha pra:ni koti, the rest of the beings…

Whenever you see something is not aligned as per sa:sthra, that which defines the order of existence and is revered as the breath of God by rushis, serve that ‘something’ to put it in order as service to God. Thus, you are happy serving God’s existence while in this world, and the rest of the beings are happy because you are serving them too.

Hence, Swami Nammalwar’s message sets you free from the ill affects of kali yuga and keeps you happy and peaceful. You must celebrate Swami Nammalwar’s thirunakshathra, birthday not just for mo:ksha, liberation to reach eternal abode, but to actually live happily here in this world.
