Mukundama:la#13 - sloka#4

Sri Krishnaparabrahmane: namaha!

Sri Hayagriva parabrahmane namaha!!

ViSesha:rtham:

 

Heh! Mukundaa! Bowing before You, I request you to kindly grant me a small wish.

In every life of mine, bless me to have my heart at Your Lotus Feet. In this

sloka Kulasekhara gives the essence of his prayers in Mukundamaala. One born as

purusha should aspire for ‘purusha:rdham’ In this mundane life ‘dharma, artha

and kaama’ are the purushardhas. The parama purusha:rdham for the eternity is

the ‘mo:ksha’.

 

Is that moksha a liberation from the chain of births and deaths? Or is it

‘Bhagavath sa:yujyam’? Or is it the eradication of ‘avidya’? Or is it

Bhagavatha sa:lo:kyam? Or is it Bhagavath sa:ru:pyam?

 

There is a possibility for the people to misconceive what is meant by moksham

in that many ways! So, to clarify those doubts, here Kulasekhara is mentioning

the form of moksha he wants to attain requesting the Lord Mukunda! Kulasekhara

explains the purushartham he wants thus: “I don’t want ‘janmaraahithyam’. I

don’t want Paramapadam. In which ever world I be, in which ever form it may be,

the parama purusha:rtham – the moksham, I long for is – never ever should I

forget YOUR Lotus Feet.”

>>> I don't want 'janmaraahithyam'. I don't want Paramapadam. In which ever

world I be, in which ever form it may be, the parama purusha:rtham ? the

moksham, I long for is ? never ever should I forget YOUR Lotus Feet." <<<

 

This is certainly the highest aim of life. Is this 'Shuddha Bhakti' or pure

devotion to Lord Mukunda ?
