Sri Mahalakshmi Sthuthi--contd--17

October 17, 2009

Dear Swamin

In the serial number, we enjoyed the meanings of "Hiranyapraakaaraayai"

Now we can see " Ardhraam " and " jwalantheem"

Ardhraam

This is a special guna of " Piratti "i.e. " mercy " /grace. Her heart is full of "mercy " Dayartha Hrudayam

She is " Karunya roopa ". Ashtothra sathanama says " Karunaam loka ( veda ) maatharam

Her " Asana" is " Padma "( lotus ). There is another " padma " ( lotus ) acting as umbrella to Her.Amrutha dhaaraa is always pouring on Her from this umbrella lotus. Her " thirumeni " is always wet with this " amruthadhaaraa" So, She is " ardhraam "

ESwara Samhitha says ;

Ashtadik gajas ( elephants of eight directions ) are pouring divine water from the golden pots which they are having in their bellows ( thuthikkai ). Hence She is always " cool " and " Karunya roop[a "

Jwalanthai

Not only " karunya roopa " because of " thirumanjanam " by " ashtadik kajaas " and ever pouring " amrutha dhaara" from the divine lotus umbrella, but also She is " jwalantheem ". She is like " agni ". Her "agni jwala " ( flame ) fully spreads and occupies the entire " Vaikunta ". She is " sri Devi "... Piratti. Bhagavan is in this Sri Vaikunta with Her who is creeping flame of " lightening "( minnal ) in the midst of Blue clouds ( Neela mega Chyamalan--Bhagavan and She is minnal )

Om Ardhraayai Nama:

Om Jwalanthyai Nama;

Each is having six akshras These will give supreme bliss/joy and brightness /light/fame when chanted

Incidentally, this nama appears on Deepavali day without any prior thought

To be contd
