Guest guest Posted December 10, 2001 Report Share Posted December 10, 2001 dear friends, following are the meanings of the slokas of Sri Desika, sought by Smt Raji Sridhar of Bhakti list. kAmAsikAshtakam tvayi rakshati rakshakaih kimanyaih? tvayichArakshatti rakshakaih kimanyaih? iti niSchita dhIh SrayAmi nityam nruharE! vEgavatI tatASrayam tvam meaning: Oh Narasimha blessing us with your sEvA on the bank of VegavatI! You protect me. Who else is the protector? You do not protect. Even then who else is the protector? having this strong conviction, i take refuge in You forever. ashtabhujAshtakam: This is more explicit. tvadEka tantram kamalAsahAya! svEnaiva mAm rakshitumarhasi tvam tvayi pravruttE mama kim prayAsaih? tvayyapravruttE mama kim prayAsaih? Oh Companion of SrI! Yours is the only way. You aone can protect me on YOUR OWN. When you are into the business of my protection, what efforts do i need to put in? When you are not into it, what efforts can I put in? (no need to put any effort in either case). what a simple philosophy?! much more simpler than ISKCON! need not do anything except having faith that He will take us to Him. why not follow it (anushtAnam)?
