A Wish Fulfilled

[Guest guest]

Namo Narayana

 

Last evening i heard the following from my sister, and was so overwhelmed with

joy, that i thought it would only be fitting to share this with other

bhagavathas.

 

As all of us are aware, HH Srimad Azhagiya Singar has put every eager and

interested bhagavatha in a state of trance with his excellent upanyasams on

Andal's Thirupaavai. About 4-5 days back, my sister and her husband saw this

elderly Srivaishnavite Mami (Lady, although i prefer Mami), attend the upanyasam

and wait for the bus to get back home. Since they saw her a couple of days they

offered to give her a ride back, since she happened to live near their place.

Following their getting to know each other session, this Mami asked my sister if

HH would perform Bharanyasam to a Thengalai sampradhayam person. My sister asked

some kainkaryaparals of Sri Matam, just to confirm, and HH was more than happy

perform the same the very next day. The Mami was excited and her Bharanyasam was

performed. It also happened to be the 29th day of Marghazi, and when HH

explained the beautiful "sittram-siru kale" paasuram, and specifically the last

two lines...

" Urrome aavom unakke naam aatcheyvom

marrai nam kamangal maarelor embavaay"

the Mami burst out crying, when she realized that she had her Bharanyasam

performed on the most important day, where Andal and the aayarpadi girls request

for eternal service to HIM, and which also happens to be a critical aspect of

SriVaishanavam. Since members are aware of the beauty and meaning of this

passuram, i do not wish to elaborate any further.

 

This may only be yet another event, but the impact the entire sequence of events

has on one's mind is truly phenomenon. Strange are the ways how Perumal fulfills

the wishes of his dear ones. Maybe this is a good example of how HE will fulfill

our wishes that are not materialistic oriented. All that the Mami wanted was to

have the Bharanyasam performed, but what she got was more than her request. A

simple wish but a priceless reward. Also goes to show that the Acharyan is

always eagerly waiting to help rescue and guide us towards HIM. Afterall when it

comes to surrendering to HIM, kalai is a non-issue.

 

 

Blessed are those who worship HIM and

Blessed are they who seek refuge in HIM
