Rangaraja stavam - Uttara Satakam-64th slokam

[Guest guest]

SrI:Dear Sri Matam SishyAs :

 

 

Srimath Azhagiya Singar in His uniquely brilliant way of illustrating the Vaibhavam of Sri Lakshmi Nrisimhan Quoted and explained a slOkam (64th from Uttara Satakam of Sri RangarAja Stavam) of Swamy ParAsara Bhattar and provided us an easy to understand

upamAnam ( comparison) . This was about a husband finding the admixture of Seenaa KalkaNDu (sitaa) with Milk( Ksheeram) presented to him by his wife being more delectable than either pure Milk or the seenaa klakaNDu by themselves . After tasting that special preparation offered to him by his wife , the husband lost interest in enjoying Milk and Sugar candy by themselves . Srimath Azhagiya Singar explained how AasthikAs lost similarly interest in the purely Manushya avatAram ( Vaamanan) or the Mruga avatArams ( Matsya, Koorma and Varaaha) of Sriman NaarAyaNan AFTER enjoying the Naram Kalantha Singha avatAram of Sri Nrisimhan . Sri NrismhAvatAram was equated to the unique sweetness of Milk admixed intimately with the seenaa KalkaNDu . Sri Narasimhan is saluted as the "SangamitAngakan " and as one reminding us of the Sitaa-ksheera NyAyam by Swamy ParAsara Bhattar .

Our Lord has Simha Mukham , dense manes and fierce teeth . Below the neck , He has the body of a man . This combination is the one that makes it most enjoyable to the devotees of Sri Nrsimhan . Their enjoyment of the dhivya MangaLa Vigraham of the Lord

is far superior to that of enjoying just a MrughA avatAram or ManushyAvatAram says Swami ParAsara Bhattar. In Lord RanganAtha ,

Bhattar visualizes Sri Nrismhan and worships Sri RanganAtha as "RangEndhra Simham " and meditates on that RangEndhra Simham ( RangEndhra Simham UpsmahE ). This morphing of Sri RanganAthan into Sri Nrisimhan is recognized as GatanAdhbhutam by Swamy ParAsara Bhattar.

 

There are 3 SlOkams about Sri Narasimhan in Sri RanganrAja Stavam Uttara BhAgam ( 64, 65 and 66). Srimath Azhagiya Singar chose the 64th SlOkam for His New Year anugraha BhAshaNam . The full text of the anugraha BhAshaNam can be enjoyed at :

May Lord Narasimhan , the AarAdhana Moorthy of Sri Matam and His dhivya PaadhukA Sevakar grow our Bhakti towards them every day !
