Swamy Deshikan Thiruvadigale Sharanam !!!

 

Dear Bhagavathas,

 

Sriman Shathakopa thathacharya swamy of Kanchipuram

has released a VCD of Swamy Thuppul Deshikan's

Thirunakshatram celebrations. Sriman Shatakopa

Thathacharya is the trustee of Thooppul Vedantha

Desikar Charitable Trust. With regards to the

procurement of this VCD by bhagavathas, Sriman

Shathakopa thathacharya has forwarded the following

appeal. (All translation errors are adiyen's).

 

================================================================================\

=======

- From Sriman Shathakopa thathacharya - Continued ...

 

While on pursuit of a befitting place to perform

penance and having found the kshetram of Satyavrata,

Swamy Deshikan beholds the Lord in the sanctum

sanctorum as per the maxim "Atmaikyam devataikyam".

 

Adorning the role of a disciple in the second act of

the play Sankalpa suryodayam, Swamy recieves from the

Lord of lords, an embellishment in gold and diamonds

for having established the darshanam irrefutably.

 

In the guise of Vivekan, Swamy, being a "shreyomArge

pratibharajita" accepts the shower of flowers (pushpa

vrushti).

 

Again pursuing for a befitting place to perform

penance, Swamy Deshikan offers his obeisances to

Nammazhwar born in Kurugur with the words

"SArassArasvatAnAM".

 

Having performed mangalashasanam this way, Swamy

adorns the pushpa pallakku again and sees himself

through the mAda streets of Perumal koil before

returning to his abode at Thuppul. This certainly is

the scene that moves everyone to tears.

 

In the play there are other iniquitous characters

also, like pride, jealousy, anger etc. But since our

Swamy is bereft of all these virtues, it is not

possible for him to enact in those guises. Everyone

should indeed derive great pleasure by seeing this

utsavam which is nothing but Swamy enacting his own

play. It is our request that everyone comes to witness

this wonderful event in person. It takes a year to

watch this spectacle live. But now with this media it

is possible for us to watch this event everyday. The

proceeds of this CD will go to the nityaradhana

kainkaryam of our Swamy at Thuppul.

 

In the first panchadi of Krishna Yajurvedam, it is

said "devovassavitA prArpayatu

shreShThatamAyakarmaNe". In the third ashtakam which

is the Brahmana bhagam of this, it is said "yajno hi

shreShThatamam karma" - Yajnam is indeed the

superlative of deeds. The expositors of this passage

have stated that there is no fruit that may not be

obtained by the performance of a Yajnam -

"sarvakAmasiddhihetutvAt".

 

Yajnam means a yaagam. Its derivation comes from "yaja

deva pUjAyAM". The purport of this word is to perform

aradhanam to the Lord. It is therefore of superlative

in nature and is capable of bestowing all fruits of

desire.

 

We are fortunate enough to have been doing such a

superlative service as Bhagavadaradhanam, with the

support of this trust. The Vedas proclaim "yajnasya

kAmya: priya:". This is exposited in the commentary as

"yajno hi svAnuShThAnAya mAM kAmayate" - The Yajnam

likes the one who performs it. Here the yagam of

performing nityaradhanam to Sri Vilakkoli Perumal

likes us to be its performers. Our support for such

kainkaryams may not be needed at all temples that are

very well off. It is therefore our prayer to

bhagavathas to support and participate in the

nityaradhanam of Deepaprakasha Perumal and to be the

recipients of the Yajnam's choicest blessings.

 

Two types of kainkaryams have been prescribed for

Jaavas. "AjnA kainkaryam" - Sandhyavandanam,

Thiruvaradhanam, Tarpanam etc. These have to be

performed. A lapse on this part would mean to incur

sin. The second type is "anujnA kainkaryam" - These

include visiting holy places, supporting the

renovations, supporting the daily supply of sacristies

like oil, ghee, nivedanam, flowers and others. These

may be done based on one's capacity. A lapse on these

performances will not be incuring any sin.

 

Swamy Deshikan has lucidly elaborated this in his

Nyasa Vimshati - "AjnAkainkarya vRittiShu ...

yAvadiShTaM pravRtta:" and also "akaraNe pratyavAya

rahitaM anujnA kainkaryam" - It is of no sin if anujnA

kainkaryams are not performed. At the same time the

AjnA kainkaryams like nityArAdhanam and others have

been ordained in the Agamas, and so they have to be

performed. It is therefore our bounden duty to perform

the nityaradhanam of Vilakkoli Perumal.

 

Once again, we request your participation and support

in this once in a lifetime kainkaryam of supporting

the Nityaradhanam of Maragathavalli Nayika sametha

Deepraprakasha Perumal and Swamy Deshikan at the

thiruththalam of Thuppul divyadesham.
