Pey Alwar concluded by singing the third 100 verses starting with the words ' Tiruk Kanden, Pon Meni Kanden'
( I found the glorious, golden form of the Lord').
Tiruk Kanden Pon Meni Kanden- Thigazhum /
Arukkan Ani Niramum Kanden-Seruk Kilarum /
Pon Aazhi Kanden Puri Sangam Kai Kanden /
En Aazhi Vannan Paal Inru
On witnessing the glorious vision in which the entire universe was the very body of Lord Narayana, the Alwar proceeds to describe all that he had seen. "
I have seen the glory of SRI, the consort of the Lord; I have seen hos
bewitching body that is azure in color as the sea; I have seen his brilliance like that of the Sun; on his one hand, he holds his divine discus that reverberates in the battlefield and on the other he holds the divine conch.
Seru : Battle, Aazhi Vannan : One whose color is like that of the blue seas.
The verses were so constructed that the ending word of each verse became the commencing word of the next verse - a special kind of prosody characteristic of Tamil literature called 'Anta Adhi' 'Anta' means 'end' and 'Adhi' means 'beginning'. The three works were thus called First Antadhi, Second Antadhi and Third Antadhi respectively and set in motion the mellifluous flow of Bhakti literature to follow.
