Naanmugan Thiruvandhaadhi- 9 "uLan kaNdaay! nan nenjE!".

[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

Let us get back to Thirumazhisai AzhwAr’s Naaanmugan Thiruvandhaadhi,

the penultimate ten, of 81 to 90. It is an excellent ten, so far!

 

81. You, an epitome of jnAnam and Shakthi, have enabled Yourself to be

the most appropriate meaning by blessing me with these Prabhandhams in

Tamil words and have intertwined with these words as if the water mixes

with the waters. What a dayALan You Are! Thus, I am able to get rid of

the doubt that I had whether I have the mind that is hurdle for reaching

You or it is an aid for seeing You. Such confusions and doubts are all

over. (I am NOW clear. You are very much there to bless me. )

 

82. SarvEshwaran is the father of Cupid (manmathan).This Lord of DevAs,

DevAdhi dEvan, is the Greatest Lord who can not be understood and

praised / worshipped by offering flowers even by BrahmA, Sivan and other

dEvAs. Such a Lord has entered into my heart. Is there anything better

than this? NO. NOT AT ALL!

 

83. This sarvEshwaran, the One who has the Divine Conch and ChakrA in

His Hands, acts as the Kings, who protect and save their people; acts as

dEvAs, who enable the rains to fall down on the Earth; is the Heaven

that offers fruits to one for his puNyams (Good deeds); is the humans

who are so hospitable to their relations and bhandhus/friends; is the

One who does ONLY Good to us, like our mothers; and He does in all sorts

of ways and means only good to us; - Even after all these, He is still

not satisfied and offers more and more to His devotees; Finally He

grants them by Himself, the Grandest One -the mOkshAnubhavam.

 

84. Since I have the daily duty (Nitya karma) of paying obeisance and

prostrating to the Lotus Feet of the King KaNNapiraan, I have (been

blessed to have) no flickering mind. I am equal to even Sivan in terms

of this jnAnam that I (am blessed to) possess on my Emperumaan. But , to

investigate further, and compared to Sivan (who worships Lord Sriman

Narayanan, only when satva guNam is high in him (sivan)), I am even

better (due to the Grace of Sriya: Pathih Sriman Narayanan) for paying

obeisance to Him and for holding on to His Feet always and at all times.

 

85. Ramapiraan, - the KothaNda rAman, who killed Vaali, the angry, proud

and arrogant monkey king, is here most gracefully in my heart. Hence, my

only work/duty is talk in praise of this Primoridal Chief, SarvEshwaran,

Sri Ramachandra mUrthy. My only pastime is my Raama naama

sangheerthanam.

 

86. Oh My dearest supporting mind! (uLan kaNdaay! nan nenjE!.. utthaman

enRum uLan kaNdaay! uLLuvaar uLLatthu uLan kaNdaay… What a Beautiful

Line! I always get lost in this line, Dearest Sisters and Brothers!).

Without expecting anything in return, Emeprumaan- PurushOtthaman- is

here -right here- to save us and protect us; At all times, and at all

places, He is always there to save us; He always resides permanently in

the minds of those who just show their inclination to think of Him.

See!, Emperumaan, who has NONE EQUAL TO HIM, who is Equal to HIM ONLY,

is here as my rakshakan, for me (who has NO OTHER REFUGE EXCEPT HIM),

and others (like me) who have NO OTHER MEANS TO ATTAIN HIM. Realise that

Completely and firmly, my mind!

 

87. Who is the One who ate everything that was otherwise meant for

Indran and then saved the cattle by lifting Govardhana giri, from the

torrential rains, that were sent by angry Indran? It is not a cowherd

boy; He is Emperumaan Sriya: Pathih Sriman Narayanan. He is the

Primordial Chief, who had established the vaidheeka religion. He

protects that even today. (i.e Ramanuja Siddhaantham). He is the One who

saved NeelakaNTan and Naanmukhan from great severe dangers. Isn’t He is

the One who ate and saved the sakala jIvAthmAs and the Universe during

PraLyam? Who else is there, dear?

 

88. When this AthmA, gets rid of this sarIram and is about to be caught

by Yama dhUthAs, Emperumaan, rushes to reach there and alleviates all

sorrows/hurdles of His bhakthAs and saves them- “There is nothing that

needs to be done, except singing in praise of Him, openly and loudly

about His GuNAs”- Those who think of their such true swarUpam and

realise this, only WILL BE SAVED. Other “aRpars” (lowly materialists and

of non and wrong religious groups)), with other work/duties (running

amuck after the worldly desires for sarIra / worldly relations), are all

leading USELSS LIVES.

 

89. pazhudhu aagaadhu onRu aRindhEn paaRkadalaan paadham/

vazhuvaa vagai ninaindhu vaikal – thozhuvaaraik/

kaNdu iRainji vaazhvaar kalandha vinai kedutthu/

viN thiRandhu veeRRiruppaar mikku.

 

I am blessed to have learnt the best means (upaayam) which is not wrong

or spoilt or destroyed or distorted; What is that? Listen to me; Those

who see, pay obeisance and prostrate always to the BhAgawathAs, (who

surrender to the Lotus Feet of Ksheeraabhdhi Nathan Sriman Narayanan

without fail, and mediate on Him always), will be able to GET RID OF ALL

THEIR ACCUMULATED HUGE AMOUNT OF SINS, and be saved. They will be

gracefully present at the entrance of Paramapadham where the gates will

be wide open for them.

 

90. Those who wish to live here in this world with fame and prosperity

and then to rule the Paramapadham, are the ones who pay obeisance to

Lord of ThiruvEmkatam, by offering flowers with piety and sincerity.

Those who can know and realise what could be running in Emperumaan’s

mind and do that pleases Him, become His Great BhakthAs, and are loved

by Emperumaan as His abhimaanis, and ARE MUCH BETTER THAN EVEN THE

FORMER.
