ThiruNamam saved Draupadi at her time of distress - Sri Swami Pillai Lockacharyan.

[Guest guest]

sri:

Dear Devotees: Accept adiyEn's humble pranam:

 

There was a talk about what is the one factor that saves

Draupadi at her time of distress,

Which one act: Holding hands, prapatti, putting her hands in the air etc,

 

Our Purvacharyas have blessed us with all these answers

(Every question we ask now has already been asked and

fully explained by our Purvacharyas)

 

Sri Swami Pillai Lockacharyan, also knows as LokaDesikan, has

mentioned this in Mumukshuppadi,

 

16: draupadikku AbaththilE pudavai suranthathu thirunAmamiRE.

 

Sri TCA Venkatesan has translated this

16. draupadikku AbaththilE pudavai suranthathu thirunAmamiRE.

If the Govinda nAma, which is Narayana nAma associated with one place,

can do so much, then does one have to explain further the greatness of the

Narayana nAma.

 

She says "sanka chakra gadApANe! dvAraka nilayAcyuta! gOvinda!

puNdareekAksha! raksha mAm sharaNAgatam"

 

More than anything else, its HIS Grace that saves us all the time.

(But since this grace is there all the time for devotees, we tend to overlook

his Grace)

 

It is like saying the plant grows because "i" watered it,

(But Sunlight, the KEY Element is always there, like Perumal's grace)

 

So if perumal's grace is there all the time, what is our "jivatma's role"?

 

Our role is not to block his grace (NOT to turn away from HIM)

Achit Sambhandam takes us away from HIM, Iswara Sambhandam takes us closer to

him.
