Mumukshuppadi - 063

[Guest guest]

Sri:

Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

 

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's

Mumukshuppadi

 

Sutra:

63. bagavath sEshathvaththilum anya sEshathvam kazhikaiyE

prathAnam.

 

Meaning:

More important than being enslaved to Him, is not being

enslaved to another.

 

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:

The meaning shown in Sutra 61 is being stressed again here.

As shown before, removing of anya sEshatvam which is a

terrible thing is very important for a jIva. Therefore,

even more important than being enslaved to Him is not being

enslaved to another. It is not just that the meaning of

ukAram is better taken as avatAraNam rather than Lakhmi.

The removal of anya sEshatvam even more than having

bhagavat sEshatvam, is the most necessary thing.
