SrI:

SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

MokshAnubhavam has to be granted by Me alone - But you

can get rid of paapams by praying to other demi gods

[idhara devathas]; AzhwAr answers this question in the

next three verses:

 

neRRipeRRa kaNNanviNNi

NnaathanOdu pOthinmEl,

naRRavaththu naathanOdu

maRRumuLLa vaanavar,

kaRRapeRRi yaalvaNanku

paatha!n^aatha! vEtha,nin

paRRalaalor paRRumaRRa

thuRRilEnu raikkilE. (87)

 

Rudran- who was blessed to have the Third eye on the

forehead; the Swaraat- chief of Deva- DevEndran;

Chathur mukha brahmA- performing thapas on lotus

flower [which sprouted out of the Navel from Lord

Mahavishnu]; and other devathas (demi gods) all of

them also, based on what little they know or are

blessed with, prostrate at the Feet of Yours alone! Oh

Sarva SwamI! Sarva SEshI! (Lord of all and Master of

all)! The object and essence of Vedas! if one needs to

say, it is this: But for taking refuge at Your Feet,

there is no relationship or association for me at all

with anyone else.

 

Right from Chathur mukha brahmA (four faced BrahmA),

Rudra and Devendran upto all demi gods, based on what

little they have comprehended and realized to their

capacity and limitations have praised You and

prostrated at Your feet; They have not fully seen You

or realized You. Thus You are the Grandest One! Lord

of all! You are the Master of all! Why should I go to

them when You are their Lord! why should I take refuge

at them when they thesmelves are prostrating at Your

feet? Even if I address You in different name (or some

other name- if I need to say) it means You only.

 

Because You are the Veda Vedhyan. One uttered by all

sruthi vaakyams! Though Vedas mention other names like

Siva, Indra et al, these names only mean you with

Chaga pasu nyAyam.

 

The Chaaga pasu nyaayam of poorva mimaamsa also

declares that "Narayanan" is the Brahman, denoted by

all common nouns (Sambhu, Siva, Hiranyagarba, Iswara,

Maheswara, Sat, Aatma, Brahman, Indra, Purusha,

MahaPurusha, Uttama Purusha, Staanu, Swambhu etc) in

the context of cause of universe, granter of

liberation etc as the name "Naaraayanan" is a

particular/proper noun identifying the Lord of Lakshmi

- Vishnu. [extract from Sri MS Hari's write up on

Chaga pasu nyAyam]

 

You are the in-dweller (antharyaami roopam) of these

Devas and thus you are only referred to. When such is

the case, when i address You straight, without any

doubt on Your Supreme Lordship, how can that be equal

to holding onto other demi gods? When I say KaNNA!

some one may say it is neRRi kaNNan [third eye on

Forehead- i.e Rudran], even to refute that and say no

itself is untenable to me.. because I do not wish to

give even a semblance of doubt there at all. sonnAl

virOdham.

 

the essence is that the term "Narayana" denotes the

ultimate as per the shastras. Vyasa's quote might be

helpful to us here - " alodya sarva shasthraani

vicharya cha muhur muhuhu. idamekam sunishpannam

dhyeyo narayanaha sadaa" - which means " after

contemplating on all the shastras and re examining it

several often one thing stands out clear (for

humanity)- one should always meditate on "narayana".
