Once More , Please.

Once Again, Please

 

 

We find in music concerts or other great performances that, when

audience are extremely enthralled, they request the performer

 

"Once More, please"

 

This is in ordinary materialistic parlance. How long can this go on?

Let us assume that the once more is repeated several times.At one

point of time perhaps, the audience will say

"Okay, thank you, enough'

 

Is there a performance, where this once more is eternally asked and

the performance is eternally satisfying, never getting

bored and there is an increasing marginal utility?

 

We mortals, though equipped to cherish great works and performances,

cannot and do not get submerged in great things for ever. However,

the nithya-sUris who are always immersed in the Lord's auspicious

qualities -desire to hear about Lord's kalyANa guNangaL again and

again.

 

Where does this happen? For bhagawadh vishayam -thiru-voi-mozhi -of course. Who is the performer?

None other than our nam-AzhwAr and who are the souls who are lost in

the trance -they are the blessed jEvAthmAs of the upper world.

 

They request swAmi for thiru-voi-mozhi and on hering the kalyANa guNam

request again, ask for once more, go for another round and on and on,

getting greatly satisfied but never reconciling that the performing

can end. They get submerged in the Lord's sEla guNam the krshNa

thrishNA thathvam, the magnum opus thiru-voi-mozhi.

 

EDu : "innam sol;innam sol-ennum ithanai pOkki, kEATTa amsathilE

thrupthi piRavArgaLiReA;bhagawath vishayathai anubavithu adhaRku

pOkku vEdAi pAsuram-inRikkEA, vimmal-porumalAi

irupppavargaL-ippAsuram kEATTAl vidArgaLiREA:

 

'Once more, once more - is their plea. When experincing the Lord's

qulities, they do not have enough outlet like narrating the

experinece and when they get such wonderful pAsuram-s minutely

depciting His sEla guNam-s, will they leave?'

 

Which is the pAsuram --thiruvATTARu thiru-voi-mozhi 10-6 and who has

narrated this incident-Sri nam-AzhwAr himself.

 

'kATTith than kaNai kazhalgaL -kadu naragam pugal ozhitha,

vATTARRem-perumAnai -vaLam kurugUr satakOpan, pATTAya thamizh mAlai

Ayirathip pathum kEATTu, ArAr vAnavargaL -sevikkiniya senjollEa"

10-6-11;
