THIRUKKOTTHUMBI - SONG 14

கருவாய் உலகினுக்கு அப்புறமாய் இப்புறத்தே
மருவார் மலர்க்குழல் மாதினொடும் வந்தருளி
அருவாய் மறை பயில் அந்தணனாய் ஆண்டுகொண்ட
திருவான தேவற்கே சென்றூதாய் கோத்தும்பீ

In this song, Manickavasagar describes the lord as the origin. That is, the world originated from him. Yet, he stands away from the world. (கருவாய் உலகினுக்கு அப்புறமாய்)
One can take this in this way also - the world denotes maya or illusion. The God created the maya. But he is apart from maya. He Is untouched by maya.
He gave Darshan to Manickavasagar at Tirupperunthurai as Guru. Not only to Manickavasagar, but also to other disciples. This is the external scene, witnessed by everyone who were present along with Manickavasagar. மறைபயில் அந்தணனாய் ஆண்டு கொண்ட...
But within Manickavasagar, the lord gave Darshan as ammaiappar or ardhanaareeswarar. This was seen one and only by Manickavasagar. மருவார் மலர்க்குழல் மாதினொடும் வந்தருளி அருவாய்... this Word அருவாய் says this was not seen by others.
Oh bee! please go and buzz in front of the lord who is the wealth of the devotees (திருவான தேவற்கே), who brought me (manickavasagar) to his folds by giving Darshan as a guru, teaching vedas to the disciples.
