HE came rushing to the rescue of the elephant (gajEndra aazhwaar) on his

carrier who is the most purified and is the Garudan (puL) and killed the

muthalai or crocodile and relieved the elephant and offered mOksham to him.

Such Lord of Lords who has the eyes equivalent to the the red cheNgamala

flower, and the Lord who is also expanded in four other forms in this

universe, (vyuukam here), I see HIM in thiru NaRaiyoor. \

 

Prathyooha VarNanai:

 

He is the carrier for Lord Vishnu. His flocking is the sound of vEdas.

He is the deva swaroopini. One would simply understand the

vedaaththangaL if they meditate on him. By understanding so one can

also master the Sankarshana vidyay that will lead to self realisation

of para thathtuvam.

 

His eyes are kaayathram.

His Head is thrivruth

His name is yajus

His Ankaas are santhass

His nails thishNyangaL

His Body is vaamadEvyam

His aathmaa is sthOmam

His wings are bruhath

His tail is the vEda

 

The difference between the Lord Emperumaan and Sri Garudan are known

only between themselves, Truly speaking the bakthaas say they are the

same. One will carry the other ,and the other will give the boon to

carry HIM to him only. One will be the carrier and the other one will

go and win the asuraas. All the elders do dyaanam of HIM in his

shoulders, these are all the secrets of their association. (Please note

that the advanced soul worships Lord Vishnu on Sri Garudan and

surrounded by the twele aazwaars at the time of their flight to

SriVaikuNdam). Such GArudan should bless us the brhama saamyam.

 

He is one of the uncomparable in this universe.

He is second comapanion to Lord Vishnu

Only three to four people know him well enough.

He is the secret of the five letters.

He is the one with all the six gunaas.

He is the one with seven swaras of vedamayam

He will bless devotees with all the eight sidhdhis.

He is the ninth or navamaanavan ie.. nouvel ie new.

He targets the enemies of Indra who has 1000 eyes (Indra has), and flies with

crore (ie 10 Million) feathers. Thus he crossed the bearier or the limits of

counts or numbers (sankyay). He will clear our fears.

 

He has five vyuukaa moorthies such as "sathyan" who is the most

prominent of the "saathvathi samhithai". He is one who cures those who

are poisoned by the samsaaram. He is the devathaa or the Lord for the

life supporting pancha praaNaas. The one who is preached by upaNishads

as "panchaathmaa panchathaa" and such Garudan should make us feel

happy.

 

The only two who has the vedic constitution are the AdisEshan and

Garudan. Such vedic Body of adisEshan that is also common to him ,

Garudan has his body, face, arms, thighs, feet, and other parts

radiates with several colors (of which white as Brahmana and red as

shathriyaa) and being the prevading devathaa of the praanaa, he confirms

that he possesses the brahma saamyam. Let such Garudan come to our

rescue when we are in need.

 

Garudan always stands in front of the Lord facing HIM like a mirror.

The kaustubaa mani of the Lord that is previleaged to find its place in

Emperumaan's chest reflects Garudan's figure similar to a shadow.

There is a concept for that. When paark kadal was churned kaalakooda

poison also emerged with Kaustuba maNi. Since the Mani was worried if a

droplet or trace of a posion is spilled on it, and so as a parikaaram

or cure, it always bears the shadow or reflects the thiruvuruvam of

Garudan. Let Such Garudan's shadow save us from the poisons of the

samsaaram in a similar way.
