Periya Thirumozhi 5.7- SarvEshwaran- Sarva rakshakan- Sarva sEshi is Arangan

[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

Dearest Sisters and Brothers,

 

AzhwAr enjoys in yet another ten on Lord Sri Ranganthan and says that the

Lord, in order not to let the present people of the world lose the greatness

of His avtaars, stays permanently at Srirangam, for them to see Him and His

avtaars of His in Him at Srirangam.

 

1. The beginningless Vedas, the Yaagams that are performed with the

recitation of those Vedic hymns, the VyaakaraNa saasthras, the sabdhams, the

Jeevans, the Fire, the Earth filled with lots of waters, the clouds, the

noisy, airy oceans, the hug seven mountains, the space, the – He has all of

these as a part of His sarIram, - He, SarvEshawaran, is reclining and having

His Yoga nithrA at Srirangam Divya desam.

 

2. Indran, four faced BrahmA, Sivan- et al praise Him, with His numerous

countless, various KalyANA guNAs. He stands as the Father, Mother, the

bhandhu, the child, the darling of all Jivans, and then is the medicine for

removals of these bhandhams (relations), He is blemishless natured and

blessed the same to jIvans with Him as the medicine, He is Bliss and offers

Himself to chethanas at Srirangam Divya Desam, where He is having His Yoga

nithrA.

 

3. The strong, vast, Earth, the Mountains, the Oceans, the space, the world

where asurAs live, - everything else was engulfed by darkness, and the

beginningless four Vedas were losing their lustre, due to this darkness.

That is when the Lord SavEshawaran appeared as Hamsam, (Swan) and saved and

gave back the Vedas to Sages and Devas. This Lord, which Vedas proclaim as

Parathvam is here, for our eyes’ enjoyment at Srinagam Divya Desam.

 

4. The great, huge, tall mountain of Manthara was used as the stick (matthu)

and the long thick snake (Vasuki) was used as the rope for churning the

ThiruppaaRkadal by the Lord.. Like an elephant opening its wide mouth and

shouting, the oceans made the noise of churning, and the waves arising oiut

of the churning touched the sky, much to delight and wonders of the Swargam,

the Devalokams, the Sun, the moon, and all other worlds simultaneously. He

churned with his four shoulders (that appeared as thousand shoulders). Such

most wonderful SarvEshawaran is having His Yoga nithrA at Srirangam.

 

5. How can asurAs live if they even think of that ferocity of Lord

Narasimhan? From the strong chest of HiraNyan, the blood ran out like the

stream of water when it was torn by the Lord. The blood came out like the

water falls from the huge golden mountain. With reddish eyes (due to anger),

curved sharpened teeth, like large wide open, unparalleled mountain of

silver stands on its legs, Lord Narasimhan appeared and He is here at

Srirangam having His Yoga nithrA. (AzhwAr enjoys the Lord as Silver mountain

and hiraNyan as golden mountain).

 

6. When Kaarthaveeryarjunan went for the battle, it appeared as if thousand

mountains are going together. Lord Parasuraman cut those 1000 strong

shoulders and made them befell on the ground. Kaarthaveeryarjunan reached

the heaven. Devas praised Him with thousand names, and the Lord reclined on

the lustrous 1000 mouthed AdhisEshan ThiruvananthAzhwAn, as His bed, on the

wavy Milk Ocean. This Lord who reclined on ThirppaaRkadal, and appeared

later as Parasuraman, is here at Srirangam.

 

7. SitA Piraatti, who has most beautiful, long curly hair, and has bimbha

fruits like mouth, was made to shiver with fear and was separated from Her

consort Lord Sri Rama in the Ashramam by that cruel raakshasan, rAvaNan.

Rama simply decided to crush the gem bedecked golden Rathna crowns

(kireetam)- all ten- and destroy lankA. All that He did was to aim His

arrows from the beautiful curved bow to let the ocean leave a way and built

the bridge with the service of monkeys. This most greatest Lord is here at

Srirangam having His Yoga nithrA.

 

8. He is Nirvaahakan (Director) for Kaalam (Time) et al; He is the Chief who

is worshipped with Homam etc.,; He is the unparalleled anthryaami of the

Sun, who spans the whole world on his chariot; He is the One who removed the

soorows of GajEndran elephant; He is Raman who destroyed lankA; He is KaNNan

who, in order to help Arjunan, hid the Sun with His disc (ChakrA) during

battle field; Such greatest and most wonderful Lord is here at Srirangam,

reclining and having His Yoga nithrA.

 

9. He is the little darling infant who sucked the breast of demon Poothanai;

He is the Perumaan, who ate the vast universe and brought back later for

protecting the same during praLayam; He is the Lord who reclined on little

Banyan leaf; He is inaccessible for even Devas; (But) he came into adiyEn’s

heart and helps in removing my sorrows; He is Parama upakaarakan; He is the

cowherd Boy of KrishNAvataar, who lifted the huge Govardhana mountain

effortlessly to save the cattle from torrential rains; - He is here at

Srirangam reclining and having His Yoga nithrA.

 

10. Cauvery river, whose noisy waves bring along the golden particles; the

pearls; the gems etc., with its swift current, surrounds on all sides of

Srirangam Divya Desam, where swans swim gracefully; where (Chandra

pushkariNis, Soorya pushkariNis) ponds are beautiful; where SarvEshwaran

Lord Sriya: Pathi Sri Ranganathan reclins and has His Yoga NithrA. About Him

is this ten which is sung by Kaliyan- Thirumangai’s Chief. Those who read

(learn) this ten, will have all their karmaas removed everyday.. (as and

when the karmas come in..)
