The Lord who delights in the creation of the Universe as a pastime, is in over-all control of the acts, good and bad, of His subjects, the reward and punishments therefor, the seats of enjoyment of the reward (Svarg [svarga]) and infliction of punishment (Hell) and so cn. Having attained Him, the Āzhvār avers that he is free from sorrows of any kind, rid of the bonds of Karma, the fountain source of all sufferings, through His unfailing grace.
In this seventh pāśuram of the chapter, the Āzhvār, having deeply contemplated the divine nature of the Supreme Lord, reveals a profound truth. He declares that by truly understanding that Śrīman Nārāyaṇa is akarma vaśya (one who is never bound by the laws of karma) and that all of creation within this līlā vibhūti (the material realm of His divine sport) is merely
