Hi,

 

I am D. Lakshmi Narayanan, a software engineer, from Chennai. I love Lord

Vishnu.

 

Though this is an introductory mail, i'd like to pose a query. What is the

reason for the folded left hand of Lord Venkateswara @ Thirupathi? Can anyone

please enlighten me with relevant history & evidence?

 

regards,

dln.

Dear Sri Lakshmi Narayanan,

 

The hand that shows the feet says "mAm eKam saraNam vraja". (Surrender to ME

alone). The left hand that is on his thigh (or knee?) indicates "if you have

surrendered, the samsaara saagaram (ocean of samsaaram, whose depth is

immeasurable) will become knee deep only. Not to worry" and shows the sign.

This is from Sri MukkUr Azhagiyasingar's (44th pattam) upanyasam.

 

Regards

Narayana Narayana
