Thirucchandhaviruttham- 92nd verse- Please give me an assuaging assurance and bless me with Your abhayam (Do not fear)

SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

 

You may reside in my heart for sometime. But I am not

sure whether You would stay there for ever. For the

case of Nappinnai PiraaTTi, You fought with seven

Bulls and killed them effortlessly without uttering a

word. Because there is no mention if You bhad taken

her to MathurA or left her in Gokulam. Hence Please

bless adiyEn (me) with abhayam (Do not fear- maa

sucha:) so that I can rest assured.

At First, in the Beginning You created the oceans and

You reclined on it; You churned the ssame for the

sweet amudhu (for Devas) and the sweet amudhu

(Mahalakshmi) for You; then You had even crossed the

ocean by building a bridge across the ocean to go to

lankA for the sake of PiraaTTi; [Not just that-

further more] You effortlessly tamed and killed

majestic strong seven Bulls for the sake of sharp

spear like most beautiful eyed Nappinnai PiraaTTi to

unite and hug her most fragrant bamboo like shoulders!

Oh Lord who reared cattle! I am Your rakshya vasthu

(object for saving). Please have mercy on me (adiyEn)

and give me an assuaging assuarance saying "abhayam -

Do not fear".

 

Last verse, I had mentioned about Your destruction of

asurAs for the sake of PiraaTTi. You had done many

such deeds for Her sake. Not only did You cross the

Ocean. You churned for Her; You reclined on the ocean

(for Her enjoyment); I think You created the Ocean

itself for just EkAntham with Her reclining on

AdhisEshan. You do not have that love not just for

Her. You also longed for uniting with Nappinnai

PiraaTTi. You tamed and killed the seven huge majestic

strong Bulls effortlessly. Not just that even. You

behaved as if You were a Cowherd Boy for ages, hiding

Your Nature which is completely on the opposite.

 

Hence I can be (I am) also Your object of Your

protection and be the recipient of Your daya and

mercy. Surrendering is- My act or deed is Holding Your

feet that saving Me is Your burden alone- as commented

by Periyavaacchaan Pillai. Thus even the last verse-

He saved Her as She sought His protection and rescuing

Her. Else, if someone is not devoted and does not seek

His protection, he does not act on His own and

consider that as His pleasure for saving the person-

as commented by Periyavaacchaan Pillai.

AsrayaNam- Placing the burden of protection of our

self at his feet.
