However, what you are saying is that the Lord *literally*

lacked some anubhavas and had to go seek them from someone

else. In other words, there was a shortcoming in His own

jnAna and Ananda forcing Him to go elsewhere. Now, does this

really make sense in the context of innumerable statements

from Sruti, Prabandham, and Smrti that He is 'kurai onRum illAda

gOvindA', 'satykAma, satyasankalpa', 'vijnAna-ghana', 'satyam,

jnAnam, anantam'?

Please note that when it is said that perumAL did this for getting the

anubhavam, it is not at all a shortcoming on His part. This can be

explained clearly as follows :-

 

Take the simple logic of watching Cricket. Most of us all have the desire

to see the Cricket match. Say, you do not have a TV in your house (this is

still true in India, may not be in the US) to see this. You are always

thinking of getting this anubhavam sometime. Yes, indeed this is a kurai on

our part as jeevAtmAs and this is not with paramAtmA. But let us move a

little further. We now buy the TV and start watching the Cricket match. But

are we convinced that we now have had the anubhavam and stop here. No. We

see it more and more (No end, even if India plays in the most stupid

manner). Logically, once you have had the anubhavam, that kurai is no more

with you but you still keep on seeing the match for you love it. This is

the exact state of EmberumAn with respect to the anubhavam spoken. Yes, He

only wants the anubhavam more and more, not because He is lacking but

because He is liking. Which is why He is called as "aruLicheyAl pitthan"

and true to this title, even today, He is going behind the Divya

Prabhandams, while the vEdAs are following Him, as can be seen in any

purappAdu in any divya dEsam.

 

Next, amongst the cricket playing nations there are almost 100 to 150

players, but you still watch or like only Tendulkar or Lara or some X. Why

only them out of 100 or 150. Because you are so much drawn towards them for

their capability and ability and the grace with which they play. So you

watch them and celebrate them more and more and more. You have their

blow-ups hanging on the wall in your house. Here do you mean to say that

you are doing this because of lack of anubhavam. You cannot say it for you

have already experienced it. It is only out of your desire for more

experience on the same. Same is the case with paramAtmA. On seeing the

ability and the elegance with which swAmi maNavALa mAmuni delivered his

lectures, he got attracted so much that He considered him as His own

AchArya and glorified him with the world renowned thaniyan " srisailEsa

dayA pAthram.......". This glorification of paramAtmA can be superimposed

with ourselves hanging the blow-ups of the cricketers we like, in our

house. This episode, certainly, in no way, attributes any lacking on the

part of the paramAtmA, which otherwise will contradict the words of

Sruti,smrti and et al.
