[Guest guest]

Sri:

 

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

 

Dear Bhaktas,

 

During the tele-upanyasams of AsmadhAcharyan, H.H. Srimad

Poundarikapuram Andavan Swami, Adiyen wrote down notes for selected

Shlokams. Adiyen will share these notes on this forum.

 

Namo Narayana,

 

SriMuralidhara Dasan

 

62. One attains Swargam as a result of one's puNyam. However, as

one enjoys the pleasure of Swargam, these get depleted. When all

the fruits of their puNyas have been exhausted, one returns to

Samsara (Bhulokam). Therefore, even the pleasures of Swargam are

like hell, especially as the stock of one's PuNyams get depleted

and they near the end of their stay in Swargam. Their state

is similar to that of a rich man who is nearing abject

poverty after squandering away all his riches. Therefore, even the

pleasures of Swargam are transient.

 

Mukunda is one who bestows Moksham. The Paaduka of Mukunda has a

status that is unmatched! Those who contemplate on the Mukunda

Padhuka and respectfully receive the Mukunda Paaduka on their head

will be freed from all desires for transient pleasures. Instead they

will be blessed with the desire for experiencing BrahmAnandam arising

from eternal residence in Sri Vaikuntam.
