thiru adhyOyana sEvai - part 1d - AchArya vanthanam

 

Dear bAgawathAs,

 

Tamil:

engaL annal oru nyAna ooRRu. dheergha dharisi. pAdhaiyai kAtti

sila samayam ethirp padum thadangalgaLai kooda padik kattugaLAy

mARRi uthAraNa mazhai pozhinthu " kaNNinun siRutthAmbuiRkku "

upanyAsa veLLam padaikkiRar. Srimadh Azhagiya singarin upanyAsam

oru soR kalanchiyam. kattuNNap paNNiyathu kaNNan enRAr. ivar tham

soR suvaiyil adangi kattuNdhathu adiyOngaLum koodatthAn.

 

English:

Our annal is a spring (ooRRu) for nyAnam. He is a prophet (dheerga

dharisi). There are a few blockades that appear on our path. Our

annal makes such blockades themselves as our stepping stones and

do a rainflow of examples and is creating a flood (through this

rainflow) of upanyAsam for kaNNinun sirutthAmbu. The upanyAsam of

Srimadh Azhagiya singar is a silo for words. His Holiness

mentioned in one of his upanyAsam that Lord Kannan was tied up by

the ropes. But it is we the adiyOngaL who were also contained and

tied up by HIS sweet words used in those upanyAsams.

 

 

Tamil:

alai kadalil Adum padagaip pOnRa america vAzhkkaiyil, etthanaiyO

pAdangaL, padippugaL maRRum pattangaL! innum minkani ennum

" computer " moolam vaNNak kanavugaL. " Net " allathu valai enappadum

sathsangangaL maRRUm sabhaigaLil, veRum Ettuk kalviyai pArtthu

pArtthu salitthu Oynthu vidum mAlai nErangaL. vaLarnthu irunthum

Srivaishnava sampradhAya paLLiyil veRum kuzhanthigaL; Aga

ippadiyAga adangiyuLLa manthamAna adiyOngaLukku oru sulaba soR

pozhivu moolam pAdhaiyaik kAtti athil Or theevira payaNam nadattha

Adharavum thanthu aNRAdangaLaiyE uthAraNam Aga adaiyALam kAtti

thamizhk koonthalil pEr azhagAnathOr alankAra sootalaiyE sARRi

English:

Our American lives look similar to those ships that are rocking in

those huge waves in the deep ocean. In such a rocking life, there

are so many studies degrees, diplomas. Further, there are also

colored dreams of future constantly transmitted through computer.

There are also " net " sathsangams and sabhas through which mere

written knowledge (Ettu kalvi) appear. Having seen such written

knowledge so many times every evening, the nights are worn out.

Though grown up chronologically, still remain as mere infants in

Srivaishnava sampradAyam. These are the characteristics of us, the

adiyOngaL and our lives. For such dull minded (mandha buddhi

yuLLA) adiyOngaL, His Holiness showed a path (AchArya bhakthi) and

as well provided encouragement to do a serious journey by showing

our daily routines itself as examples. By doing such guidance His

Holiness has bedecked the tresses of tamil language with an

extremely beautiful " crown " that is filled with celestial gems.
