Marundheninum vaendarpaar ranru
Even the nectar of immortality is not to be consumed,
Without sharing with the guests waiting outside.
All commentators have agreed upon the interpretation of 'saavaa marundhu' as the elixir for immortality, but Parithi's reference to poison itself in this context, is not understandable.
In Puranaanooru we have a passage which is directly relevant.
Amildhum iyalvadhaayinum inidhenath
Thamiyar undalum ilarae
Even if it is the heavenly nectar, they will not have it alone.
