Vyakhyana Saram:
In the previous pasuram, Azhvar told his mind to think of his divine nama. When asked if we cannot survive without that - Azhvar replies, "Even the devas reinforce their state only by praying to Him; is it even necessary to say that we can survive only by chanting His divine nama?"
