Mumookshapadi -Thirumantra Prakaranam Part-III

[Guest guest]

Respected Members Of Bakthi List,

 

In the last post, it was mentioned that out of 3 Vyapaka

Mantras(Narayanan,Vasudevan,Vishnu),

Narayana Saptham is most superior, We will see how that is substantiated

in Mumookshapadi:

 

Continued....

 

11. Due to its importance, Thirumantram is considered as the Maha Mantram.

 

12. Other Two Vyapaka Mantras(viz, vasudevan,Vishnu) have two drawbacks.

 

The drawabacks mentioned are

 

a. Apoorthi-Incompleteness .

 

The term Vishnu is Incomplete in one sense that it explains only his

Vyapthi(omni presence) but not his Kalyana gunas

Similarly, The term Vasudevan implies that everything in Him(Sarvam

Vasathi) . it however, does not describe his Kalyana Gunas.

 

b. Achista Parigraham- the other two mantras are supported by advaitis who

have not comprehended God's real nature and hence it is a drawback.

 

But Narayana Saptham describes Bhagavan's Svarupam,Roopam and Kalyana

gunas. and hence the most superior.

 

13. This Maha mantra was liked by Vedas,Rishis,Azhwars and acharyas.

 

14.The Name of the Lord is considered more important than the Lord Himself

..

 

15. Even if the Lord is away, His Mantram would be with the prapanna and

protect him.

 

16.It is like how Draupadi was saved by Sri.Krishna when he was away at

Dwaraka.

 

(Reference here is made to a Mahabharatam episode happened at Hastipuram.

When Draupadi called

"Dwaraka Nilaya Achutha" and surrendered to him, God helped her while he

was actually at far Dwaraka.)

 

17.even if Thirumantram is chanted without any adherence to the Kramam, it

would be still beneficial.

 

(While Chanting any Mantras, there are some niyamams and procedures without

adherencing which it will not bestow any benefit.

Thirumantram , however, even if it chanted without any adhearence to any

niyamam, it would give all the benefits)

 

So what Benefis it bestows?

 

We will discuss that in the next post.
