Thiruvaaimozhi 3.1- He is INCOMPREHENSIBLE! IMMEASURABLE! Yet so fond of us!

[Guest guest]

SRI:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

We are successfully entering the Third patthu (MoonRaam patthu). Let us

be blessed by NammAzhwAr by reading his Thiruvaaimozhi decad 3.1,

wherein he enjoys the darshan of our Lord's MOST EXQUISITE BEAUTY and

narrates his enjoyment in a marvellous ten pAsurams (again!) ; They are

reaaly EXCELLENT! Please read them;

 

1. Oh EmperumaanE! The One who is always with His consort Periya

Piraatti! Your shining face-its lustre- its brightness- has it gone up

and spread to Your kireetam (crown)? Your most beautiful Feet- their

lustre & brightness - have they spread to the Lotus on which You are

standing? Yoru waist beauty and its shining brightness- has it mixed its

brightness with Your peethAmbharam & AbharaNanghaL (dress and the

ornaments)? You should tell me all these about Your beauties.

 

2. Oh EmperumaanE! The Param poruLE! The ParanjOthiyE! If we talk about

it, Your eyes Your Feet, Your hands- They CAN NOT be even compared to

the LOTUSES! (means they are much MORE BEAUTIFUL and better looking than

Red Lotuses!) . The Gold that has been heated and is at a Very high

temperature, such a Golden Colour even is much less Beautiful than Your

MOST BEAUTIFUL THIRUMENI (Divine Body). Hence, these people (Azhwar is

pointing to us!) are comparing Your beauty to all these things (based on

their limited / lack of understanding.

 

3. Since You are the Most Beautiful of all, You are the ParanjOthi.

Since, there is no more shining form than Your form, You are an

incomparable FORM of LIGHT. You are the One who created the entire

Universe and all worlds, GOvindhA! If these are Your measures, How do

You think I can tell in simple words with my pasurams? I DO NOT have the

capacity to tell about Your attributes and qualities.

 

4. In these wide spanned universe, these people (lacking in their

knowledge about You) do not have Your Most Beautiful Form in their

hearts and meditate. Further to that lack of knowledge, You have also

created confounded the confusions by creating more differences in jAthi

(castes) and in religions. You have confused the samsaaris with all

these things and then You have desired on the ThuLasi leaves. Will this

world NOT suffer by not knowing You and by losing You? (You are enjoying

with ThuLsi leaves and are in bhOgam , while the samsaaris are suffering

without You)

 

5. Will I be able to talk about Your form and Its Beauty? By very

nature, You are shining so brightly and so Beautifully. When seeing Your

Divine Body, one may wonder as to it is due to Great penance, such a

Beautiful form has come. BUT IT IS NOT. It Definitely is Not. It is

natural of You to be so Beautiful. By very nature, You have so much

jnAnam (knowledge) and have been existing in Everything in this

Universe. You know everything that happened in the Past, that is

happening in the Present and that will happen in the Future. You are the

One who know all. You are th One who protects everyone; How can one tell

about Your Most Beautiful, Most Auspicious kalyANa guNAs? (You have

taken the form only for bhakthAs; Your ornaments for our enjoyment)

 

6. The vedhams, the saastrAs, are all essence of Your guNAS Truthfully;

Nothing but Truth; Oh EmperumaanE!, the One who wears the garland of

ThuLasi with most fragrant flowers! The One whose chest is adorned by

Sri mahAlakshmi! How can I greet You with words? When even vEdhAs can

not describe You in words, How I can tell? (Swami Desikan says the same

in GOdhAsthuthi- second verse-) (Sisters and Brothers, The vEdhAs are

actually many; countless; There is a story in vEdA; BharadwAja maharishi

wished to learn all vEdAs and requested Indran for 300 Year life. He

learnt vEdAs for 300 years. After 300 years, Indran appeared and

bharadwAjar felt proud that he completed vEdAs fully; Indran said that

what he learnt was only a handful of vEdAs; Thus there are so many

vEdAs; and Veda vyAsar only compiled for us a miniature version just for

us in kaliyugam; and made into four vEdAs; with all these vEdAs and by

all those schlarly dEvAs even, You can NOT be praised to the fullest

extent;

 

7. Even when the bhAgavathAls increase exponentially and praise Your

kalyANa guNAs, still it is not possible to measure Your auspicious

attributes. (Our Lord immediately asks "What about BrahmA, Sivan? Can

they NOT comprehend me fully? " AzhwAr says "No,You know why? Because,

even, BrahmA and Sivan are not able to do justice to Their praising You.

Even if they do, it is due to Your mercy. Firstly, You created BrahmA

for him to create the world. And then Sivan wascreated; then, the dEvAs;

How they can attempt at understanding You fully? It is just NOT possible

for them to praise You fully; Are Your kalyANa guNAs measurable? NO.

 

8. EmperumaanE! With no growing, no reduction, You are always the SAME

FORM of JOTHI, a Blemishless jOthi; You possess the Most Purest,

Blemishless jnAnam (knowledge); You possess the Divine Body which is the

Most Brightest, ever shining, form and has no blemishes; and has the

entire Universe in it; You are the One who directs EVERYTHING; and You

are praised by BrahmA, the one who has the knowledge and strength as his

ornaments; (Emperumaan has the lustrous ThirumEni as if thousands of

Suns rise at the same time;- GitA 11.12)

 

9. When the elephant GajEndrA called You devotedly "AdhimoolamE!" You

IMMEDIATELY rushed to protect him and save him; (You forgot to tell Your

consorts; Your VishvaksEnar; You forgot to wear Thiruvadis- Your only

intention was to RUSH IMMEDIATELY; You could have sent the ChakrA

straight from Sri Vaikuntam- But didn't; because- it will NOT disclose

Your Vatsaly GuNA;) You have the Sharpest ChakrA as a Your Ayudham

(weapon) and You came by Garuda vaahanam; (You even jumped ahead of

GarudA once You came near GajEndrA!) If You protect the people from Sri

Vaikuntam, it will definitely lessen Your Most Auspicious GuNAs;

(Vatsalyam); (Hence Do come in Person Oh Lord, for these Bhakti Group

members)

 

10. Oh the Lustrous Jothi, the One who is the essence and the meaning

of four vEdAs! Regularly, You have been saving and protecting the worlds

during the Cosmic Cycle ends; For protecting, You have eaten the

Universe and then You brought the Universe out; You measured with Your

Feet; Sivan, who has the half-moon in his head, BrahmA and IndrA have

been graetly blessed and achieved Greatness and become MOST famous by

praising You, Lord! Is it a wonder? No.

(here AzhwAr saus "maRaiyaaya naal vEdham- maRai means vEdam; then, why

he says- maRaiyaaya naal vEdam? MaRai means - maRaiya means covered -

hidden; Vedam means to tell explicitly; i.e. For theists, it is explicit

and understood; For athiests, maRai- hidden and is not exposed-

BEAUTIFUL? Isn't it?)

 

11. JNana moorthy Emperumaan (The Omniscient, Omnipresent) has got all

actions and possessed Most Auspicious attributes in Him naturally. VedAs

proclaim Him as the Chief and He is praised DOUBTLESSLY by NammAzhwAr in

1000 pAsurams; Out of those 1000, those who read these MARVELLOUS ten

pAsurams, ARE CERTAIN TO GET OUT OF THESE VISCIOUS BIRTH CYCLES and be

saved in this earthly world surrounded by oceans!
