Mani - Who is Uncomparable and was churned out of Ocean already

[Guest guest]

All the gems that are available in the universe

are not comparable to the rathanam or gem known

as kushthubam that was churned out of the

ocean thirup paaRkadal and that this gem occupied

the thiru maarbu or chest of the Lord Vishnu.

(we donot have to deep dive into any ocean

to seek the gem; the gem is already provided to

us in the form of Swami Desikan who is the

incarnation of this gem known as Kausthuba

mani !)

 

All the puNNIya kshEthrankaL are not a match for

"kaanchi" where our pEraruLaaLan stands with his

infinite grace pouring as rains from the clouds

that are his infinite mercy. Those vedams smruthi

and puraanams that were revealed to us with pure

hearts by the rishis, are not even any match and

cannot be compared to our achaaryaas such as

Nammaazhwaar's, shukthi. Hence the qualitative

comparisons of all the available vasthus (vasthu

here means any object ie "nagar" or town, "gem",

and "knowledge" through holy literature) are

declared here in this rahasyam and those that are

prominently claimed here as uncomparable are to

be sought as a heriditary property kept for us by our

elders.

Desikan

 

This paasuram not only suggests that when we have the

heriditary property the uncomparable gem (ie Kaushthuba

Mani as Swami Desikan and its radiance are his

paasurams) we donot have to deep dive to get the gem

out of the ocean (as suggested by our friend) but also

declares that nammaazhwaar's paasruams are more than all

the vedams, shruthis, and puraaNams put together.

The word 'saakiyap pEygaL' has a very deep meaning than

what it looks outwardly and hence it is requested that

one would want to examine such before quoting these.

As an aside It is a similar reason that we also adore

our Sri Mani, who was the reason for this net that we

are all using as our "wholly" inherited property

and share those information on those "holy" inherited

property.

Is not Swami Desikan normally considered an amSa

of the ghanTa (bell or in Tamil, thirumaNi) of

Thirupathi Srinivasa PerumaaL? This is what his

son declares in the Vedanta Desika MangalaaSaasana

stotram.

 

Kulasekhara Alvar is considered an amSa of the

kaustubha maNi. I have not heard Desikan equated

to this jewel. Are there any references to this?

Swami Desikan is considered as the avathaarams of thirumani of Lord

Venkatachalapathy by some. He propagated SriVaishnavam loud and clear similar

to the sound of a temple bell.

 

Swami Desikan is considered as Vishnu amsam , a revisit of kaushthuba mani

(first as kulasEkara aazhwaar) and now as Swami Desikan. Kuashthuba mani bears

the reflection of Garudan all the time and Swami Desikan first sought the

initiation by Sri Garudaazhwaar. It is narrated in Swami Desikan's life history

that when he visited Thirumalai he stood on the kulasEkarap padi and his eyes

watered down with aananthak kaNNeer.

 

Swami Desikan is considered as avathaaram of Lord VenkatEswara HIMself by some

due to his birth day and birth star ie purattaasi sravaNam. He declares in his

songs himself as venkatEsa kavi and one of his birth name is also same.

(similar to the belief that avathaaram of thiruk kaNNapuram perumal as

requested by thirumangai was periya vaachchaan pillai who was also very

exemplery in 4000 vyaakyaaNams)

 

Swami Desikan is considered as revisit of Sri Rama avathaaram as per his

horoscope (refer to his 700 centinary celebrations release). ie the revisit of

veda purushan and purshOthaman Sri Raman. Swami desikan was so exemplary both

in his conduct as a veda purushan and also in his knowledge on vedaantham that

lead him to be named as vEdaantha dEsikar.

 

 

Swami Desikan is considerd as revisit of Sri Bashyakaarar by some, who was the

avathaaram of Sri Adi sEshaa. Adi sEsha's body has the vedic constitution and

that no one could have delivered the *real* meanings of vedaa other than adi

sEsha himself. Since Swami dEsikan also was similar to this, in his

understanding and deliverances on vedic interpretations, and that he was the

sole reason for Sri Raamanuja sidhdhaantham to be strengthened with his

deliverances, some consider this way.

 

Swami dEsikan's achievements are uncomparable and no *single* person has

delivered so many granthaas in this boolOgam as such.

 

On the whole, he is vishnu amsam and a composite of all these features of Lord

Vishnu.
