Thuppul Deshikan-Deepaprakasha Perumal Marakathavalli Nayika Nity aradhana kainkaryam - Appeal from Shathakopa thathacharya

[Guest guest]

Swamy Deshikan Thiruvadigale Sharanam !!!

 

Dear Bhagavathas,

 

Sriman Shathakopa thathacharya swamy of Kanchipuram, who is the trustee of

Thooppul Vedantha Desikar Charitable Trust has forwarded the following

appeal to the internet fraternity requesting participation in the

Nityaradhana kainkaryam for Thuppul Deshikan and Marakathavalli Nayika

sametha Sri Deepaprakasha Perumal at the temple in Thuppul Kanchipuram. (All

translation errors are adiyen's).

 

============================================================================

- From Sriman Shathakopa thathacharya -

 

It may be a question asking as to how one, by participating in this kainkaryam,

may benefit

from the fruits of the performance of rituals like Ayushyahomam and others. In

the event of

worshipping demigods like Indra and others, seeking the fruits of wellbeing and

longevity,

without realising that they have a body soul relationship with the Lord, the

worship is

recieved not by the demigods but by the Lord Himself who is their indweller.

This has been

attested to by the statement "yetvanyadevatA bhaktA yajante shraddhayAnvita: |

tepi mAmeva

kaunteya yajantyavidhipUrvakam||". Even if one devotes himself to the demigods

with

sincerity, they still will be effecting the worship of the Lord alone. But they

would be

totally unaware of this fact. But since the intent is different, the fruits of

attainment

are also different. Knowing well that the demigods like Indra and others are the

body of the

Lord and if they are worshipped with a desire of obtaining abundance of food and

wealth,

then such a desire will come to fruition. Having known thus, if the devotees

seek the Lord

Himself directly, then there is no place for even the faintest of doubts in such

a desire

coming to fruition. In Bhagavat Geetha, the Lord quotes many seekers - one who

wishes to

reclaim his lost wealth, one who wishes to experience atmanubhavam, one who

wishes to be

bestowed with new wealth. As per this, the Lord may be prayed not only for

attaining the

supreme fruit moksham, but for attaining the lesser fruits also.

 

The deeds of performing tadiyaradhanam keeping in mind some fruit may be

attained by

performing the nityaradhanam to the Lord. One may participate in this kainkaryam

with fruits

of desire in mind. At the same time, one may also participate in the

nityaradhana kainkaryam of the Lord and our acharya sarvabhoumar, seeking no

fruits. But this act will also bestow fruits of noble deeds on the performer.

The pramanam here is the statement from Vishnudharmam quoted by Swamy Deshika -

"sharIrArogya ... nityamapavargaprado hari:" - the Lord bestows wellbeing even

without the bidding of the seeker. Swamy also quotes Kulashekarazwar's words -

"ninnaiyEthAn vENdi ... chelvampOla". Even if the Lord Himself is sought alone

without the desire for any other attainments, wellbeing also comes in naturally.

 

Devotees may therefore participate in this nityaradhana kainkaryam without

seeking any

fruits thereof or even with a specific desire in mind and be recipient of the

benevolence of

the Lord.

 

To be contd ...
