Guest guest Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 Every incarnation of bhagavAn, irrespective of whether it is a boar or a turtle, or kRshNa or rAma, is a pUrNAvatAram, if this term means that He has shAD-guNya paripUrNatvam (full of His six guNa-s). Otherwise, we have to get into a definition of what is meant by paripUrNattvam. svAmi deSikan has covered this subject under the topic of the "six avatAra rahasya-s", in his SaraNAgati dIpikA stotram - Slokam 17 (nAnAvidhaiH...). Depending on which one of the incarnations is praised at a given time, a kavi or an AcArya (of any faith) will praise this avatAram as the best. This does not mean that other incarnations are inferior. This is a lakshNam of poetry, the name for which I have forgotten at this moment. Any discussion that one incarnation is "paripUrNam" and another is not, is not consistent with my understanding of our sampradAyam. -dAsan kRshNamAcAryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 SRIMATE RAMANUJAYA NAMAHA Lord is poorna in every avataram.What is meant by poornaavataram is that He exhibits all His shadguna to a fuller extent.In other avatarams only one or two gunas will be explicit. dasan On Fri, 13 May 2005 champakam wrote : >Every incarnation of bhagavAn, irrespective of whether it is a boar or >a turtle, or kRshNa or rAma, is a pUrNAvatAram, if this term means that >He has shAD-guNya paripUrNatvam (full of His six guNa-s).
