Dearest All,

 

AzhwAr pours out his grief for not being able to enjoy

the Kutti KaNNan (in Devaki’s role). He cries out

through the media of Devaki by simulating emotions

motherly tenderness to the child.

 

AzhwAr feels (in the Devaki role) :She, yasOdhA was

blessed with everything. She even got the lovely,

sweet kiss from you.

The movement of your curly black tresses falling over

your face and the ornament (neRRi chutti) on Your

forehead; kissing with your beautiful sweet mouth;

the charming beauty of your body and face, resembling

that of your father and enjoyed at that similarity;

seeing and enjoying your childish pranks, feeling

elated; placing and putting your fingers in your small

reddish mouth; uttering rambling words with a

quivering mouth, stammering when you are angry; I, the

unfortunate one, have not experienced or enjoyed any

of the above. Yashoda, the divinely blessed lady,

equal to a celestial lady, experienced all of them.

Everything of these incidents.

 

Sri Muralidhar Rangaswami adds: This Pasuram is

instructive in that Devaki offers tribute to Yashoda

for the latter's Bhagyam for being privy to all the

childhood pranks of Lord Krishna. The reference to

celestial lady is in the context of the incident where

Yashoda successfully tied up Lord Krishna to the

mortar. It must be remembered that Yashoda tried

several times in vain to tie up the Lord. Each time

she tried, Yashoda found to her amazement that the

rope was a little short. Determined to accomplish her

mission, Yashoda lengthened the rope in every attempt

only to find that the rope was not long enough.

 

Exasperated in her efforts, and realizing the futility

of her endeavor,

Yashoda implored to the Lord to be bound (by way of

scolding the child). Lo and behold! the rope was

sufficiently long to tie up the Lord. Thus, Yashoda

succeeded where even Parama Yogis, Devas and

Maharishis came up short. Brahma, accompanied by the

other Devas, Rishis, witnessed this incident and

poured out tears of joy at the good fortune of Yashoda

who had obtained the grace of Parama Purushan. One may

also relate the Vishnu Sahasranamam salutation

Agrahya Shashavata KrishNo to this incident.
