Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Njanappaana 54 Viswanaathan pithaavu namukkellam Viswadhaathri charaachara maathaavumAschanum punar ammayum undallo Rakshicheeduvaanulla naalokkeyum Lord of the Universe is our father and mother of the Universe is our mother. (lines one and two). We have both father and mother to take care of us as long as we live. (lines three and four). Above lines (also) remind us the concept of " Vasudhaiva Kumtumbakam " . If we consider the Universe as our home, Lord of the Universe (Guruvayurappan or Lord Krishna or Vishnu Bhgavaan) is the father of all and Prakruthi Devi through whom Bhgavaan created the world is the beloved Mother of all. Why should we worry about anything when these Universal Parents who are capable of bestowing all blessings are watching us for ever?. They are eternal parents. We may discard this body and come back to earth with another body. But they are always there immersed in taking care of our " yogakshemam " . If we consider ourselves as members of the world family, then we will no fight each other in the name of God, politics, power and money. Poonthaanam wrote this because he experienced the joy of seeing everybody as his own family members. We can see poet's attitude of complete surrender when he says : " we have both Universal father and Universal mother to take care of us as long as we live. Because of his intense devotion and attitude of surrender, Bhgavaan came to him when he needed His help. Once Poonthaanam started his journey to Guruvayur for that month's darshan of the Lord. He started later than usual and started walking as fast as he could to reach Guruvayur before dusk. On the way , he had to pass through a forest and it was about to get dark; He had a small bag of essential things and was walking fast. Suddenly a few robbers appeared from no where and jumped on him and asked for his possessions. He pleaded and told them that he had nothing except a few clothes in his bag and was going to Gurvayur. But they would not leave him and wanted the thin golden ring on his finger (which he used to count the namam he chanted) and what ever he was carrying in his bag. Poonthaanam was sad and afraid that he would be delayed to reach Guruvayur. He called Guruvayurappan at the top of his voice and chanted this prayer from the bottom of his heart: Ya thvara Draupadi thraane Ya thvara gajarakshane Mayyaarthe karunaasindho! Sa thvara kva gathaa Hare! Hare! how quick you came to protect Draupadi, how quick you came to protect the elephant (from the crocodile), now in deep sorrow, I am calling you and where did disappear your quickness (of action)? He continued chanting Narayana naamam and suddenly they all heard the noise of a horse's footsteps. In no time the minister of the then King of Cochi, Mangaattacchan appeared and robbers ran for their life. Mangaattacchan consoled Poonthaanam and accompanied him until he crossed the danger zone. Poonthaanam was so moved by his timely help and to show his gratitude presented the minister with his golden ring. He reached Guruvayur and it was late and he could just pray only from outside of the temple. That night, chief priest (melshaanthi) had a dream and in the dream Guruvayurappan told him that when he removed " Nirmaalyam " in the morning he should look for a golden ring on His ring- finger and he should give it to Poonthannam because it belonged to Poonthaanam. Next morning Poonthanam came ot the temple for nirmaalya darshanam and Melshaanthi gave this ring which was the same ring he presented to Mangaattacchan the previous day. So who was Mangaattacchan? Poonthaanam just wept and wept thinking of Bhagavaan's kindness. Then he knew that Bhgavaan who is the father of all 'Charaacharam " or animate and inanimate things, came and rescued him. His words in the above lines are the direct result of his experience and so he assures us that Bhgavaan will take care of us like a father and Bhgavathi will take care of us like a mother. The only thing we need to do is to chant His name and remember Him. Let us chant Bhgavvan's divine names along with Shrri Poonthaanam and millions of other devotees around the world: Krishna! Krishna! Mukunda! Janaardana! Krishna! Govinda! Naaraayana! Hare! Achyuthaananda! Govinda! Maadhava! Sachidaananda! Narrayana! Hare!

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Dear Viswanathanji,  Her is it in Malayalam:  യാ à´¤àµà´µà´°à´¾Â à´¦àµà´°àµŒà´ªà´¦àµ€à´¤àµà´°à´¾à´¨àµ† യാ à´¤àµà´µà´°à´¾Â ഗജരകàµà´·à´¨àµ†Â    മയàµà´¯à´¾à´°àµâ€à´¤àµà´¤àµ†Â  കരàµà´¨à´¾à´¸à´¿à´¨àµà´§àµ‹ സാ à´¤àµà´µà´°à´¾ à´•àµà´µ ഗതാ ഹരേ!  It is not letting me type " à´£ " in Draupadithraane, gajarakshane and karuna. But it is taking " à´£ " When I type just that letter. It is very strange, but I am almost computer illeterate to solve this problem (except that I know how to type and send mail). So please replace all " à´¨ "  in all the three words mentioned above with " à´£ " . Hope this will help you to say this prayer correctly.  Regards an dprayers  Savitri    On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 10:52 AM, Viswanathan K <kvichu2000 wrote:   Savithri Puramji,Namaskarams!Ya tvara Draupadi thrane.... is from the heart of Sri Poondanam.Situations arise in my life too,even at this old age,when I feel like crying for His help!Now you have taught me how to cry for HIs help!
