Meaning of Thiruppavai pasuram 19-Kuthuvilakkeriya-k-kottukkaal kattil

In this stanza, Nappinnai is awakened for the ultimate purpose which is to gain union with Kṛṣṇa. In  the previous stanza they requested her to come and open the door, and when she was about  to start from the bed to open the bolt, Kṛṣṇa restrained her from doing so, for He desired that Nappinnai should not grace them before He did.  So the Gopis began again  to awaken Kṛṣṇa, but this time Nappinnai prevented Him from joining with them  and so they again entreated Nappinnai to allow  Kṛṣṇa to arise!   In the Arayirappadi it is stated —    “Unless you obtain the grace of the couple —  Lord and His spouse —  you won’t realise your goal, but will suffer like Śūrpanaka and her brother Rāvana. Surpanaka approached Rāma without the mediation of Sītā, and  suffered mutilation.  Rāvana  tried to abduct Sītā in Rāma’s absence, and he was destroyed”. On the other hand the demon “Kākasura ”  attacked Sītā but his life was spared because the couple were together!
