Guest guest Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Njanappaana 21Viswanaathante moolaprakrithi thaan Prathyakshena vilangunnu bhoomiyaay Moolaprakruthi, creation of Lord of the Universe (Viswanaathante) appears (vilangunnu) as Bhoomidevi who is visible by direct senses or direct perception (prakthyashena).Let us explore more about creation. Bhagavan initiates creation. The first cause is Bhagavan or Viswanathan who is beginingless and endless. First effect is Moola Prakruthi. Second effect is Prakruthi which is the avyaktha or undifferentiated cosmic substance. Then comes the effect of Prakruthi, Mahat thatva. From this Ahamkaaram or feeling of " I-Ness " emerges, next is cosmic mind, five Njaanedriyas or knowing senses from mind, then five karmendriyas or working senses also from the same mind, Pancha tanmathras or five objects of njaanedriyas and finally the physical manifestation of the Pancha tanmathraas, the five visible material substances. These are called Pancha bhoothaas. Of this the last one formed is Bhoomi. First is Aakasham or space , next is Vaayu or air, third is Agni or fire, Fourth is Apa or water and then comes our Bhoomidevi ot Prithvi or earth. So we can see that Bhoomidevi is the gross and visible form (prakthyaksham) of Moola Prakruthi. We can compare the relation between the Moola Prakrithi and Bhoomi to a mount of mud and an earthen pot made of mud. Here we can say that mud is the Moola Prakruthi and the earthen pot made out of mud is a manifestation of mud. So earthen pot can be compared to Bhoomi. Similarly all the different golden ornaments are made from the same basic substance Gold. Once you melt the ornament, it becomes the basic gold again. Likewise, before dissolution Bhoomi dissolves in water, water is evaporated by fire, fire is put out by air and air disappears in space and everything goes back and dissolves in Moola Prakruthi and in turn Moola Prakruthi dissolves in Paramaathma or Viswanathan. Shri Nilakandhan Nambishan has given an interesting interpretation for the word " Viswanathan " . One meaning for " Vi " is bird and " swaa' can mean a dog. So he says that name Viswanathan indicates that Bhagavan's limitless mercy reaches the whole universe including the birds and dogs and hence undoubtedly He is the Lord of all! Poonthaanam says that Jeevaas who took birth in this Kaliyuga on this earth as human beings are very blessed because just by chanting Bhagavan's naamam, we can attain moksham. Naama sankeerthanam is powerful enough to burn all our sins and Poonthaanam invites us to chant the following naamaas (or any naama of Bhagavan) along with him and millions of other devotees; Krishna! Krishna! Mukunda! Janaardana!Krishna! Govinda! Naaraayana! Hare!Achyuthaananda! Govinda! Maadhava!Sachidaananda! Naaraayana! Hare!Samasthaaparadham kshamaswa.
