Naanmugan Thiruvandhaadhi- 5 - "there is no fear for me any more"

[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

This ten of Thirumazhisai vandha jOthi's Naanmugan Thiruvandhaadhi is on

our Glorious Sri Srinivasa PerumAL of ThiruvEmkatam. An excellent ten!

 

41. Oh My Dear Lord of ThiruvEmkatam, the place where the precious

stones come rolling down with the roaring vociferous waterfalls from the

top, where the reverberating mangaLaasaasanams of Your dearest devotees

on ThiruvOnam (sravanam) echo everywhere! You have entered into my heart

and now I long to pay obeisance to You at ThiruvEmkatam.

 

42. Reach that tall mountain of ThiruvEmkatam and pay obeisance to Him;

That Greatest Mountain, by its very nature, removes all our sins at all

times. The most fragrant Lotus born BrahmA, and the three eyed Sivan too

offer Lotus flowers at the Lotus Feet of Srinivasa PerumAL and pay their

praNaamams at this sthalam at ALL TIMES.

 

43. Lotus –born BrahmA, and the Moon Crescent headed Sivan, collect

pearls and other precious stones and go to TirumalA, where clouds are

all immersed in between the mountains, for performing Thiruvaaraadhanam

at this sthalam for Emperumaan’s Thiruvandhikkaappu (during

Sandhyaakaalam).

 

44. Oh Young People! Proceed to ThiruvEmkatam desirously, where the Ever

Youthful Lord Srinivasan is standing most gracefully- the One (as a baby

sitting on his lap) who had hinted to BrahmA, that he should not grant

boon to punishable rAvaNan, , by drawing ten lines on the ground with

his toe finger, erased them and disappeared. “DhaNda arakkan thalai

thaaLaal- paNdu eNNip pOm”. (Does anyone please supplement this leelA

of PerumAL please!)

 

45. Emperumaan is standing so beautifully and gracefully at this

mountain and BhAgawathAs, who most lovingly and devotedly offer flowers

at His Feet with mangaLaasaasanams (by praising Him with sthOthrams).

They all fall at His Feet and prostrate like the “axed tree trunk”. Such

Greatest Emperumaan is my Lord and this cool breezy mountain with

waterfalls is the INVALUABLE TREASURE (Nidhi) for even NithyasUris, and

the Earthly people. (Sri MK Sudharshan and Sri Muralidhar Rangaswamy, I

am sure, must be very excited to read about their abhimaana sthalam!)

 

46. (Look at AzhwAr’s imagination and poetic narration in this pAsuram!)

On top of this ThirumalA, the elephant wants to offer to the Lord

Srinivasa the cool moon itself to the Lord and tries to catch it from

the sky, while the hunter looking at that elephant tries to surround the

elephant and trap. The gypsies (kuRavar) who live in there, seeing the

cruel hunters, take their bows to attack the hunters. Such Great

ThirumalA- if one pays obeisance happily and sincerely to Emperumaan

here at this sthalam, it will DO HIM A LOT GOOD. They will be

tremendously benefited. (AzhwAr implies that even the animals love to

offer and pay obeisance to the Lord and the Lord removes the hurdles

coming in the way).

 

47. The Strong lions, the elephants, Golden particles, Pearls, Gem

stones, the trees with fully bloomed flowers, the dense thick forests,

and hunters and monkeys who live in them, are all here at this Most

Beautiful Cool ThiruvEmkatam mountain. And on this mountain, is the Blue

Bright Diamond-my Emperumaan Sri Srinivasa PerumAL, the SarvEshawarn who

stays for ever. (Here AzhwAr implies: Emperumaan most willingly stays

here permanently and hence, AzhwAr enjoys the animals, the stones, the

trees, chEthanAs and achEthanAs as NityasUris.

 

48. ThiruvEmkatam is the Mountain where NityasUris, pay their obeisance

with Great Bhakti; It is the Mountain, where even one’s karmic diseases

(which unless one suffers taking various births, will never ever get

erased at all) vanish within a fraction of a second; It is the mountain

where the body diseases even get cured (VaidhyO NarayanO Harih:) It is

the Mountain where Emperumaan, who destroy the asurAs and protect the

dEvAs with His ChakrAyudham, is standing so gracefully and divinely.

 

49. Emperumaan appeared as the Koormam (Huge Tortoise) to hold the

manthara mountain on His top, so that it will not slip away and used

Vasuki snake for churning the Ocean. While doing so, He also held tight

the top of the mountain with His one Hand, in order not to let it wobble

and the water splash- Such Greatest Most wonderful Lord- it should

mandatorily be one’s duty to speak ONLY in praise of Him and utter His

Divine Names.

 

50. KaNNaperumaan- The One who is having His YoganidrA at

ThiruppaaRkadal (Milk Ocean) is here at Kapisthalam Divya dEsam on the

banks of the river Cauvery. His Charama slOkam and its rich deep

meanings are fully imbibed in my heart and hence, after having

understood Him as the Means and the End as well, now, there is no fear

for me; (Maa sucha:) All my cruel, incorrigible sins have vanished and

will never dare come near me; (sarva paapEbhyO) and I will never ever

earn a bad name (of being an independent jIvan with a wrong knowledge;

means- I know that I am ever dependent on Him and will serve Him only-

mOkshayishyaami).
