Mumukshuppadi - 012 : Qs on "nAra"

[Guest guest]

sri:

Please accept adiyEn's humble pranams

 

The divine nectar puring out of our Acharyas is great and

adiyEn is extrmely greateful to Sri TCA Venkatesan

and to Smt. Sumitra Varadarajan for their post series.

 

======================================================

Qs on the nAra:

Please clarify if the following are in line with our Purvacharyas:

 

Point1:

nA: The Opposite of

rA: Destroyed (That which can be destroyed)

 

nAra: The things that are not destroyed (and are there all the time)

 

Point2:

So "HE" pervades and supports only these.

 

Point 3:

Because he pervades and supports these they are nAra (not destroyed)

 

Subpoint 1: Hari (we chant Hari hari .... eary morning when we get up)

 

Is this broken as

Ha' (Bring out negatives from us)

Ra' Destroy these negatives

 

======================================================

 

>manthra. The nAra part explains the nature of who/what is being

>pervaded. The nArAyaNa part explains that He pervades all

>("antharyAmithvam") and that He supports all ("thAragathvam").

>The ayana part explains that He is the means ("upAyam") and the

>end ("upEyam"), for all. Thus, this manthra is complete as it

>explains what is being pervaded, how it is being pervaded, the

>effect of the pervasiveness, and the nature of He who pervades

>all.
