avathArikai (Introduction)
Subsequently, piLLai lOkAchAryar says “That is not sufficient, one should do some favour in return to emperumAn for his acceptance of one’s kainkaryam”.
sUthram 285
koduththuk koLLAdhE koNdadhukkuk kaikkUli kodukkavENum.
Simple Explanation
Instead of giving something him and seeking something in return from him, one should offer something more to him for accepting one’s kainkaryam.
vyAkyAnam (Commentary)
koduththu …
That is – instead of submitting something to bhagavAn and getting something in return from him as said in “dhEhi mE dhadhAmi thE” (Give me. I will give you), similar to ANdAL, the divine daughter of periyAzhwAr, who said in nAchchiyAr thirumozhi 9.7 “inRu vandhu iththanaiyum amudhu seydhidap peRil nAn onRu nURu AyiramAgak koduththup pinnum ALum seyvan” (If that azhagar mercifully partakes of the hundred pots of butter and hundred pots of sugar rice, and without stopping at that, if he resides in my mind, I will submit hundreds of thousands of pots of butter and sugar rice and carry out further kainkaryams to him), for the favour of accepting the material one offered, one should submit more of those same materials as per one’s desire and should offer him more by serving him.
