Fallen Tulasi leaves are not used for Thiruvaradhanam as we have to pluck fresh Tulasi leaves by chanting the relevant mantra.
Saint Shukha has quoted Lord Siva as an example because while we cannot even do the feats of Lord Siva, how can we even attempt the feats of Perumal? He has stated only based on this perspective and those who have written expositions have also stated the same.
Tulasi garlands have to be worn only when we are pure, that is mostly in the daytime; at other times one has to be careful in not acquiring taint to wear it.
Though Parasurama is an indirect incarnation, the Jivatma resides in him; it was the Jivan who lost the battle. Through the power vested by Perumal upon him, he was able to defeat the Kshatriyas whereas the form of God did not fructify while waging battle with Bhisma and he was just a human. The indirect incarnation nature is such that certain actions are based on the power of Perumal and certain other actions pan out similar to normal humans. When the indirect power ends the person becomes ordinary.
