Guest guest Posted April 11, 2000 Report Share Posted April 11, 2000 Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 187. vasiShtamuKhyaIrvihithABhiShEkAm rAjyAsanE rAmanivEshayOgyE thuShtAva rangEshvarapAdharakshE! prAchethasasthvAm praThama: kavInAm Oh Paaduka! As You were installed on the throne fit for Sri Rama by Vasishta and the like, in due ritual form, You were praised formally, by Valmiki, the first among poets. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S): *********************************** (1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! after the performance of the ceremonial abolutions by important personages such as Sage VasishtA , latter admired You as the appropriate One to sit on the throne intended for Sri Raama. Sage Valmiki praised Your many auspicious attributes in his RaamAyaNam. Swami Desikan suggests that VasishtA's performance of the ritual bath had to be matched by some one of his stature , when it came to the praising the qualities of Sri Raama PaadhukAs. Indeed , there was no one superior to sage Valmiki ( PrachEthas) in devotion to RaamA and hence he (Vaalmiki) had the privelege of singing the praise of the annointed PadhukAs. (2) The RaajyAsanam ( BhadrAsanam ) was fit for seating Sri RaamA ( Raama nivEsa yOgyam). Sage Vasishta was the most qualified one among sages to annoint RaamA on that BhadrAsanam. Adhi Kavi, the foremost among poets (KavinAm prathama:) eulogised your auspicous qualities and he was the most qualified among poets to perform this kaimkaryam ...V.S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
