Guest guest Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Dear Members : FYI. Thank you Sri Vaasu ! V.Sadagopan AdiyEn Raamanuja dhaasanIn Varaaha puraanam,where (Bhoomi)Piraattiyaar asks (Yem)Perumaan the way to get rid of the '' Samsaara cycle, PerumaaL says thannaip paadi ugappiththaal samsaarak kadalin karai yEralaam.(the best way to beat this samsaara cycle is to please Him by singing His glory) He also tells her the story of ''nampaaduvaan". (in the 48th chapter of Sri Varaha Puranam,)In that, after the Brahmaraakshasa is unconvinced of the first thirteen promises made by ''nampaaduvaan", Nampaaduvaan says in his 14th promise,NaaraayaNamathaanyaisthu dhEvaisthulyam karOthi ya :thasya paapEna lipyEyam yadh yaham naagame puna:MeaningNampaaduvaan says he will get the same sin of (becoming) a nithya samsaari (like) who(ever that) compares Sriman Naarayanaa, who is sarvaantharyaami, MOkshappradhan and who is without an equivalent or a superior (Oppaarum mikkarum illaadhavan)with idhara dhevathaas," Kaanilum uruppolaar sevikkinaadha keerthiyaar* pEnilum varanthara midukkilaadha thevar" (thiruchchandha viruththam)on hearing which the Brahmaraakshasa gets convinced of the Nampaaduvaan's honesty to return and leaves him (to sing the kaisika Pann to thiruk kurungudi nambi (after completing the '' Jagara vratham of not sleeping on yEkadhasi night)on the early morning of Dhvadhasi day of Vruschika maasa sukla paksha.)Nampaaduvaan not only completes his vratha but also comes back as promised and saves the Brahmaraakshasa by donating the Palan of singing a song in Kaisikap paN.( the Brahma raakshas was a Brahmin in his early birth and who became a Brahmaraakshas because of his committing mistakes during a Yagnya) from his curse....Thus Sri Varaahappiraan states that the best way to attain mOksha is the Gaana roopam (to sing His glory) Nammaazhwar says '' Aadiyaadi agam karaindhu* isaipaadipaadi kanneer malgi ......'' and thats what is exemplified/ empasised by Piraatti herself in vEdhamanaithukkum vitthu, Thiruppaavai.PaaRkadaluL paiyyaththuyindra paraman adipaadiOngi ulagaLandha uththaman pEr paadiThoomalar thoovi thozhudhu vaayinaal paadiNaaraayanan moorthi kEsavanaip paadavumPaavaaiyezhundhiraai paadip paraikonduMuththam pugundhu mugil vaNNan pErpaadathen ilangaik kOmanai setra manaththukkiniyaanai paadipolla arakkanai kiLLik kiLaindhaanaik keerthimai paadisangodu chakkaramEndhum thadak kaiyyan pangayakaNNaanaip paadimaathaarai maatthazhikka vallaanai maayanai paadaThooyOmaai vandhOm thuyilyezhap paaduthiruththakka selvamum sEvakamum yaam paadigOvindha unthannaip padip parai kondu..And she also says that this Varaaha piraan is none other than NamperumaaL."Paasi thoorthukkidandha paarmagatku* pandorunaaL maasudambil neervaara(a) maanamilaap pandriyaam*thEsudaiya thEvar thiruvarangach chelvanaar*pEsi iruppanagaL pErkkavum pEraavE ''- Naachiyaar thirumozhi.yEnaagi ulgidandhu andru irunilanum peruvisumbum*thaanaaya perumaanai kaNdadhu thiruvarangaththE.- Thirumangai aazhwaar - Periyathirumozhi -ninthiru yeitraal idandhu nee konda nilamagaL kELvanEthen thiruvarangam kOil kondaanENammaazhwar - Thiruvaaimozhi .Bhattar Swaami was granted '' Paramapadham'' by NamperumaaL when he completed reading the Kaisika puraanam on Kaisika dhwadhasi day.Such is the greatness of this Kaisika yEkadasi.(Puraanam)Adiyen request all Srivaishnava bandhus to observe fasting on this day and sing NamperumaaL's glory.Reference: Kaisika puraanam booklet issued by ''SrivaishnavaSri'' All mistakes /errors are adiyen's .Kindly pardon adiyEn.adiyEn raamaanuja dhaasanVasudevan ..
