Avathārikai (Introduction)
In this verse, the Āzhvār extends his heartfelt petition to Śrīman Nārāyaṇa, beseeching the Lord to fulfill his own spiritual aspirations, just as He unfailingly protects the celestial entities, including Brahmā and other devatās who possess but limited knowledge. The Āzhvār thoughtfully observes the very nature of these celestial beings.
