Vyakhyana Saram:
Azhvar sees that the samsaris are giving up on Bhagavad vishayam and are seeking other things. Due to his relationship with divya desams such as Thirukkovilur, Azhvar feels that he has escaped such a fate, similar to someone that is able to save their things at a place where robbers abound. Therefore, he says that he is involved in Him fully through his three senses (mind, speech and body) and speaks of that in this pasuram.
