Srimad Venkata Lakshmana Yativaraya Namah.

Sri Rukmini Sameta Sri Parthasarathy Swamine Namah.

 

Dear Sriman Reddy garu,

 

As I once wrote in the list, Goddess Lakshmi is eternally with Sriman Narayana.

in every kalpa, Lord takes the form of KsheerabdhinAtha (Lord of pAla samudram)

to rule the material

world. Then She incarnates to marry Him. According to Vishnu PurANa, She first

incarnated as satI dEvI. She falls into the milky ocean out of Her own will when

Her father Bhrugu curses Lord Vishnu to have bhAryA viyOgam or separation from

His consort. this was because of Lord Vishnu's chakra killing Bhrugu's wife

KhyAti, when she provided shelter to some demons chased by the chakra in her

ASrama.

Dear Sriman Venkatesh,

 

As you have said, only emberumAn can make up for the loss of a Parama

Bhagavatottama like Sriman Gopalacharya swami. I was lucky to speak to this

great scholar once in Sri Chinna Jeeyar Sanndihi.

 

Swami is the true example of Sri GItAchArya's Srisookti:

 

"mahAtmAnstu mAm pArthah

daivIm prakrutimASritah

Bhajantyananya manasO

gnAtvA bhUtAdimavyayam"

 

For a great AchArya like Sriman Gopalacharya, leaving this earth will not make

any difference, as he will be worshipping the same gOvindarAja in paramapadam

with same level of devotion.
