Guest guest Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Njanappaana 46 Ittharamoronnu chinthicchirikkave Chathu pokunnu paavam Siva! Siva! While thinking about all these things, Siva! Siva! poor fellow falls dead. Poonthaanam has all sympathy towards people who forget about the uncertainty of life and go after never ending material pleasures. Nobody knows when death will knock at the door. Along with doing all mundane things in life, he advises to spend at least a small amount of time to think of God and chant His divine names. In his opinion, those who are not fortunate to think of God at least by chanting His divine names deserves all sympathy. That is why he uses the words " paavam Siva! Siva! " Let us try to elaborate on the uncertainty of life. On a daily basis lot of things happen as expected and so we feel that things are under control. Then one day something completely unexpected happens like a fast descend of an airplane. Then we realize that we never had control over the outcome of situations. To cope with these situations all religions suggest " complete surrender to God " . This attitude of surrender helps to accept the uncertainty that life holds. This helps us to accept any situation regardless of our individual desires and their fulfilment. This attitude of total surrender never leaves us in the " paavam siva siva " situation. We can still dream about the most preferred outcome and work towards our dharmic materialistic goals. But when something happens differently than expected, attitude of surrender helps you accept a direction decided by a power greater than us. How can we develop this great attitude of surrender? Poonthaanam has the perfect solution. Naamasankeerthanam will help us to surrrender to God and he promises that it will bring supreme joy and peace. Let us chant Bhagavaan's divine names along with Shri Poonthaanam and millions of devotees around the world: Krishna! Krishna! Mukunda! Janaardana! Krishna! Govinda! Naaraayana! Hare! Achyuthaananda! Govinda! Maadava! Sachidaananda Naaraayana ! Hare! Samasthaaparaadham kshamaswa Sreekerishnaarpanamasthu Regards and prayers Savitri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
