RamarpaNam 404=>410 (Cont...d)

Jai Sri Ram.
Tara's eulogy elaborated :
tvam = He who can not be seized upon is evident in the form of Rama demonstrating the ''ease'' or ''lowness'' aspect in Him. Tara addressing Him in singular as ''tvam'' instead of ''Bhavan'' also shows the scant respect She has for Him or the high esteem she holds for Vali, because Rama felled him from behind.
aprameyaH = pramah is budhi and it means that Rama's indeterminate nature is not within the grasp of the Vedas and to be exact He does not know of Himself even. ''thanakkum Tan thanmai aRivariyAn''. This and the quotes like ''yatho vAcho nivarthanthE appropya manasa saha'' , ''katkili kaaNumaRu aruLai'' etc. corroborate the same.. He is beyond illustratilon or rather His pramaaNa rahithyam is brought out in this. What Tara could comprehend, sans enmity, Vali failed, ending in the opposite camp. God has no enmity with any body personally but those who profess enmity towards His devotees, are His enemy as well. So Vali, who considers Sugreeva his enemy, is Rama's enemy too.
duraasadaH = He is inaccessible to both our physical and mental faculties. That apart, fostering hatred He is never attained.
jitendriyaH = Rama evinces no interest in woman or wealth or earthward. Surpanakha's episode clarify that Rama never ever evinced interest in any woman other than Seetha. He eased the Kingdom that which is legitimately His, to Bharata, proving that He is detached to land or ruler ship. He gifted/donated all His wealth to the needy at the time of exile, showing that He does not patron gold or wealth even. Thus Rama is above all the three drags, which every other human finds it difficult to resist. Not only that He has conquered His senses and He is beyond the reach of Our senses too, as exemplified by Swamy Namalwar in the following:
''mananuNar vaLavilan, poRiyuNar vavaiyilan'' (T'mozhi 1-1-2).
uttama dharmakaH = Rama is well versed in Common and exemplary Dharmas. Of the common ones fulfilling Dasharatha's promise to Kaikeyi is as important to Him as the exemplary Dharma of fructifying Vibeeshana's SaraNagadi. He did that with conviction and after convincing those who vehement opposed it earlier. Tara thought Rama to be an unrighteous person in killing her husband, but conceded certifying Him to be an uttama dhaarmikaH, supreme among the righteous souls.

akshiiNa kiirtiH = Un-mollifying glory, whom the Vedas laud. Even Vali who discredited Rama in killing him without coming in front reconciled to acclaim Him at the end.
vicakshaNaH = Skillful, as evidenced in Rama tactfully and convincingly argued in bringing about sweet change of mind in Vali for his good.
kshiti kshamavaan = His is ''Earth like'' endurance in as much as Rama eliminated only one shameful Vali and not the entire race and was tolerant of Tara, Angada and other monkeys despite they being in erring Vali's side.
kshatajopamaa akshaH = Even though Rama's eyes are reddish, He is not looking as frightening as nara-simha,man-lion incarnation. AndaL Nachiyar greets the Lord as the one with ''kadhir mathiyam pOl mugaththAn''. It means He punishes the erring and graces the oppressed. Kulasekara Alwar concurrs saying ''Valiyai kondru iLaya vAnaraththukku arasai Enda'' --sengaN. For that matter His nigrahamum anugrahamE.
