Guest guest Posted October 2, 2001 Report Share Posted October 2, 2001 SrisailEsa dayApatram dhIbhaktyAdi guNArNavam yatIndra pravanam vandE ramyajAmataram munim This is considered to be a mantra from various angles. 1. mantAram trAyatE iti mantra: it protects one who meditates or chants it. This mantra protects the bhaktas of Swamy manavala mamunigal. 2. bhagavan is known as mantram since he is universal protector. tiruneduntandakam - "mandirattai ( bhagavAnai) mandirattal (tirumandirattAl) maravAdu" alwar advises his manas to praise and enjoy bhagavan through tirumandiram. Srisailesa dayapatram is a mantram since revealed by the universal protector. It protected even the universal protector. 3. Some srivaishnavas approached badri narayana for mantra upadesam. Badri narayana had earlier preached tirumandiram to nara who was himself. To the new srivaishnavas, he preached half of srisailesa mantra and guided them to go to srirangam for the balance half. They came to srirangam and took part in mmunigal kalakshEpam where there heard ranga nayakam uttering the first half of the same verse and continuing with the second half. Since badri narayana not satisfied with giving tirumandiram alone, revealed srisailesa mandiram, it is certainly a mantram. pramanam : "sIr saila mandirattin sayamana padiyaiyum tandu, mElum padiyaga tiruvarangam selvIrkal " Since srisailesa mantram took birth at the same place and person as tirumandiram. 4. If a doctor prescribes a new medicine today, it would supercede or take precedence over earlier prescription. He would give a new prescription. vaidyO nArAyanO hari : Sriman nArAyana the doctor gave an earlier medicine - tirumandiram. To be more effective gave a new medicine in srisailEsa mantram. So it would get added or supercede tirumandiram. 5. tirumandiram talks about "a" - paramAtma full of mercy and gnana, "ma" - jIvAtma who is a sesha bhUta with gnanam. in this mantra also srisailesa stands for "a", pAtram stands for "ma" . makAram the jIva is full of knowledge is told in - dhI bhaktyAdi guNArnavam. Similarly for all other parts of this mantra. There are many more reasons for srisailesa dayAptram to be praised as tirumandiram. I stop here, as I have already overshot.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2001 Report Share Posted October 2, 2001 srImathE rAmAnujAya namaha srImadh varavaramunayE namaha Sri Krishnan swami, There is no question of overshot in this. Actually I was surprised at the sudden end to the "SrisailEsa mantra Vaibhavam" if it can be named so. It was like somebody snatching away the pot of nectar while one is enjoying it. Please do not stop it. Pour out the entire thing that you have said "many more are there". We are all here very eager to learn.
