Dear Bhaktas,

 

I believe in Sanskrit Vem=Sin, Kata=Destroy Ishwara=Lord.

Hence, Venkateshwara is the Lord who destroys sins.

 

Namo Narayana,

Dear BhAgavathas,

 

Sometime back today I had given an explanation for the name

VEmkatEshwaran and you would have studied the same. Sri Lakshmanan

brought out the actual meaning of the word as he had heard it from HH

Sri Tridandi Jeeyar Swami.

 

Please go thro' the reply that I gave to Sri Lakshmanan.

 

I request great scholars in our list to enlighten me on one aspect in

our pAsurams. If our AzhwArs always used only the tamizh

representations of the Sanskrit names as I have written below, how

would they want to use the entire sanskrit word "VEm" and "katam" as

in the pAsuram "vEm katangaL meimmEl..."

 

Or is it the name Venkatan or VEmkatan for that sake has a different

meaning. I now strongly feel I was wrong in my reply. I place me

sincere apologies before all the bhaktas for this and request you to

enlighten me on this.

Dear LakshmaNan.

 

Well, I may be wrong in my interpretation. Actually I was referring to

the pAsuram in ThiruvAimozhi " vEm kadangaL meimmEl ...". I thought

this is only Tamizh word because once again I thought our AzhwArs used

only pure tamizh in the pAsurams except for some names of the PerumAL

which are always in Sanskrit. For example in Thiruvaimozhi NammAzhwAr

refers to name HrisheekEsan as irudeekEsan and VishNu as "Vittu".

 

Also our PeriAzhwAr in all the phalasruti pAsuram expresses his name

as "vittuchittan" and not "VishNuchittan".

 

If the words are sanskrit and not tamizh, then it is only my poor

knowledge and rather misinterpretation, which made me write that.

 

Thankyou for enlightening me.

Dear VEMKAT:

'vem' in Sanskrit is to remove or destroy. 'kata' is sin. The Tamil word

'kadan' meaning debt is from this word 'kata' in Sanskrit. So, "VEMKAT"

is ONE WHO REMOVES SIN. If I remember correct tnis is the explanation

given by HH Sri Tridandi Chinna Jeeyar.

 

If I am wrong it is my mistake and not HH SRI Jeeyar Swamy's for quoting

him wrongly.

Lakshmanan
