Dear Prabhanjana,

Welcome to this forum. You have raised very

important questions that need to be answered in any

philosophical system. There is a nice discussion going

on our sister list on Jiva kartrutva. You can find the

archives at www.dvaita.org. I think you can find

answers to your question in that discussion.

 

There is also a separate list dedicated to

discussion of philosophical issues such as these. It

is called vms-philosophy and you can to it

at www.. This list (also called VMS main

list) is used for religious and philosophical lessons

and announcements.

 

Hope this helps.

 

My prayers to Lord KrishNa for many blessings on

this auspicious day to the readers and the whole

world.

Vasu Murthy

Hari Om!

 

Respected Chandraji and Savithriji

 

Thank you very much for sending 29 and clarifying all about 36.  It is really going wonderful.  All the very best for the great sailing through Jnanapanna....

 

Hare Krishna ....

 

 

Best regards

2009/8/8 Savitri Puram <savitriopuram

 

Dear Chadraji and Jayasreeji,

 

Thanks Chandraji for forwarding 29 to Jayasreeji. Actually 36 th stanza has 26 lines or so. I split it into two and labelled 36 A and 36 B. I will send 36 B tomorrow. It is almost ready to be sent. So actually there is no 36, only there 36 A and 36 B. Sorry for the confusion.

 

Regards and prayers

 

Savitri

Respected Savithriji,

 

It looks like I have not received 29 and 36 Njanappaana. ...mails.  Could i request you to kind send it again?

 

Om Namo Bhagavathe Vasudevaya !

 

Jayasree Menon

 

 

Here with episode 29. I feel letter A came in additionally and think this current one only  36 episode.

 

 

Njanappaana 29

 

Athu chinthichu mattulla lokangal 

Pathimoonnilumulla janangalum

Mattu dweepukalaarilumull orum 

Mattu khandangalettilumul lorum

Mattu moonnu yugangalilullorum 

Mukti thangalkku saadhyamallaykayaal

Kalikaalthe, bhaaratha khandathe 

Kalithaadaram kaivananageedunnu

 

Thinking about that (athu chinthicchu) (truth about Bhaaratham)) all the living souls in the other thirteen worlds (lokangal pathimmunnilulla janangalum), those who are living in the other 6 islands (mattu dweepukalil aarilumullorum) ,  those who are living in the other eight continents (mattu khandangalettilumul lorum) and all who lived in the other three yugaas (mattu moonu yugangalilullorum) , realizing that salvation is not possible for them (mukthi thangalkku saadhyamallaaykayaa l),  pay respect both to Bhaaratha and the Kalikaala or Kaliyuga with folded hands (kalikaalatthe, bharathakhanadathe kalithaadaram kaivanangunnu) .

 

What does " athu chinthicchu " or " thinking about that "  mean?  In the 27th Stanza poet reminds us: " Everybody should remember  that this place known as Bhaaratham is such an important place. Out of the four yugaas, Kaliyugam is the best to attain salvation. " So thinking about these two factors, all the souls lived outside Bhaaratha varsha and all who lived in the other three yugaas paid respect to this auspicious time and this auspicious land.

 

Other thirteen lokaas or worlds are :1. Sathya lokam 2. Thapolokam 3. Janalokam 4. Maharlokam 5. swarlokam 6. Bhuvarlokam 7. Athalam 8. Vithalam 9. Suthalam 10. Thalaathalam 11. Mahathalam 12. Rasathalam 13. Paathaalam. The first six worlds are above Earth and the last seven are below earth.

 

Other six islands or dweepams are Plaksha dweepam, Shaalmala dweepam, Kusa ,Krouncha, Shaaka and Pushkara dweepams. 

 

Other six continents or regions are 1. Ilavrita Region 2. Bhadrasva Region 3.Harivarsha Region 4.Kethumaala Region 5. Ramyaka Region 6. Hiranmaya Region 7. Kuru Region 8. Kimpurusha Region.

 

Other three yugas are 1. Krutha yuga 2. Thretha yuga 3. Dwapara yuga.

 

Why all of them think that salvation is not possible or " mukthi saadhyamallaykayaal " in their time and place? Scriptures depict Dharmam as a bull or " vrusham " , and  it has four legs in Krutha yuga (chathushpaadam) . They are : Tapa, Soucha, Daya, Sathya  or Religious austerity, Purity, Compassion and Truth respectively.  In Krutha yuga people had all these qualities and Dharma was completely stable. All people were saathwic or pious and only through severe penance one could realize god. 

 

In Thretha, people have only three qualities except Tapa. Dharma was somewhat stable on three legs.  One has to strive less than Krutha Yuga, but had to observe strict purity of mind and body along with compassion and truthfulness.  They had to perform difficult yanjnaas and distribute their possessions with kindness. In Dwapara yuga people have only Daya and Sathya and Dharma had to balance with effort to survive on teo legs. In this yuga also it was much harder to attain salvation than in Kaliyuga. They had to do Yaagaas like Raajasooyam, poojaas using different manthras and thanthras etc. 

 

In Kaliyuga, only one leg is there for Dharma which is Sathya, and it is trembling insecurely on one leg. Kali encouraged by falsehood tries to destabilize the bull called Dharma. 

 

So why do they think that they cannot attain salvation ? They can actually attain salvation in any yuga. But the effort is many many times the effort or yathnam that one has to make in Kaliyuga. When compared to how effortless it is in Kaliyuga, they feel that it is impossible to get salvation in other yugaas. " Not possible " really do not mean that it is not possible but means that practically it is much harder to attain salvation. So they all desire to be born in Kaliyuga in Bhaaratha so that they can get salvation just by chanting Bhagava's naamam. In other yugaas so much penance has to be done, so many Yanjnaas have to be performed along with daana (giving away ) and purity of mind and body has to be strictly observed. But in Kaliyuga, naamasankeerhtanam can be done anytime, anywhere, clean or unclean, knowingly or unknowingly and one can attain salvation by the power of Naamam.

 

If we are truthful, Kali cannot do anything to us and Naamasankeerthanam helps us to be truthful and strong. Leading a dharmic life we can easily progress in our spiritual path by chanting namam and eventually attain salvation. But negative temptations are all around us and it is hard to resist those. But once we step on the ladder of Naamasankeerthanam, our upward journey to merge with Bhagavaan becomes safe and trouble free with the blessings of Naami (one who bears the naamam) and the power of Naamam!

 

Let us chant the divine names of Bhagavaan along with Shri Poonthaanam and other millions of devotees around the world:

 

Krishna! Krishna! Mukunda! Jnaardana!

Krishna! Govinda! Naaraayana! Hare!

Achyuthaananda! Govinda! Maadhava!

Sachithaananda! Naarayana! Hare!

 

Samasthaaparaadham kshamaswa.

 

Sreekrishnaarpanama sthu.

 

 

 Om Namo Narayanaya

Dear All

 

After August 03, 2009, I have not seen any mail in this group. I wonder if its because nobody's written, or because there's something amiss in my system. Shall be grateful if anyone clarifies.
