Kulasekara AzhwAr PerumAL Thirumozhi- 5.10- Those who recite these ten verses would never ever end up in narakam..

[Guest guest]

SRI:

SrImathE Gopaladesika Mahadesikaya nama:

 

Dearest All,

 

AzhwAr expresses in this 5th decad his ananyagatitvam

and (having none other as his refuge) Akinchanyam

(helplessness) which are closely tied to Saranagati.

 

The Prapatti should be performed as follows:

 

Oh my master! Master of all worlds! Lord of

Mahalakshmi! I am Yours; Your possession! Your

subservient, myself and all mine are only Yours. I am

your dependent; your serf; you can order me about in

all services to you.

 

You had yourself invested me with a good discernment

about You. This you had once long ago done- for some

unknown, good act of mine, as a reward. Then at a

suitable moment, you caused me to be under the

influence and direction of a good Acharya, which led

me onto Prapatti performance. This evolution to a

prapanna status who was wholly due to your original

awakening kindled in me.

 

So, I owe my spiritual progress entirely due to You.

You did all this, by Your free will, for Your own

purpose, to adopt me, as a prapanna, to Your eternal

service and grace. What is there to be called my role?

None. Having conceived the scheme of weaning me to

your service, you perhaps and rightly so, willed that

you should yourself carry all burden, reading my

weakness and inability to bear the self-protection

myself; took charge of me and mine safety and

protection, on your shoulders. My burden became Yours.

You keep all mine with you carefully and diligently.

 

All (especially in the current day times- says Dr Sri

VN Vedanta Dseikan Swami) who adhere to prapatti will

do well to remember that they must cherish the

achievement with a humility with a gratitude to the

Lord and the acharya. They must also not proclaim in

and our of season about their resurrection. Why do we

emphasize this?

 

Very fortunately they have won the grace of the Lord

and of the Acharya. Their publicity may not send right

signals to all their close circles, which would

perhaps look with suspicion and derision.

 

viRRuvakkOt tammaan^ee vENdaayE yaayidinum

maRRaarum paRRillE NnenRu_avanaith thaaLn^ayantha

koRRavEl thaanaik kulasE karansonna

naRRamizhpath thumvallaar naNNaar naragamE 5.10

 

Oh Lord of VitthuvakkOdu! Even if You reject me,

adiyEn will not seek anyone else for my succor and

protection. adiyEn fell at Your Sacred Thiruvadi with

this message elaborated thru the ten paasurams.

Those who recite them will never ever end up in

narakam. They will only gain You as their immeasurable

wealth.

 

In these ten beautiful and moving paasurams devoted to

the Lord of Thiru VitthuvakkODu, Kolli Naattu king,

KulasEkarar instructs us on the inseparable

relationship between ParamAthmA (Sarva Seshi and

Sarva Loka SaraNyan) and the forever dependent

jeevAthmA, the nirupAdhika sEshan.

 

Before concluding this ten, let us enjoy Swamy

Desikan’s Tamil prabandham

 

nin aruLaam gathiyinRi maRRonRillEn/ nedun~ kaalam

pizhai seydha nilai kazhindhEn/

un aruLukku inidhaana nilai pugundhEn/ un saraNE saraN

ennum thuNivu pooNdEn/

manniruLaay ninRa nilai enakku theertthu/ vaanavar

magizcchi thara varitthEn unnai/

innaruLaay ini enakkOr bharamERRaamal en thirumaal

adaikkalam koL ennai neeyE

 

There is no other recourse except Your Grace. I am

able to get rid of the long accrued sins over the ages

from time immemorial for so many births. I am blessed

to be the recipient of Your Grace. (Due to Your

limitless unbounded Grace) I have surrendered to take

refuge at Your Feet. Much to the enjoyment of

Nithyasooris and muktha JivAthmAs, I have placed you

in my heart, and been able to dispel the darkness and

ignorance. Please do not let me bear any more burden

(of further births) and please enslave me (by

accepting my SaraNAgati).
