SrI DEhalISa Sthuthi of SwAmy DESika and Mudal AzhwArs.

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

During the Tiru-Nakshatram celebrations of the " Mudal AzhwArs "

(first three AzhwArs), let us enjoy (briefly) how SwAmy DESika had

the anubhavam of SrI DEhalISa (of Triuk-KOva(i)lUr) with

references to the anubhavam of Mudal AzhwArs (SrI Poigai AzhwAr,

SrI BhUthathAzhwAr and SrI PEy AzhwAr)

 

In DEhalISa sthuthi, SwAmy SrI NigamAntha mahA DESika says

" dIpEna kEnachidaSItharuchA niSIthE

snEhOpapannapariSudhdaguNArpithEna

dahrAvakASanibIDam dadruSruBhavantham

swvAdhyAyayOgEnayanA: Suchaya: kavIndrA: "

 

The Mudal AzhwArs had the VEda and dyAna as their eyes and

unparalleled unsurpassed purity in their mind. Being

extraordinary kavis (divine poets), they were able to see

SrIman NArAyaNa (SrI DEhalISa of Triuk-kOva(i)lUr). Without

the help of the charming moon light in the dark night,

they used the divine lamp, which had the bhakti as oil,

pure satva-guNa as wick and saw you (SrI DEhalISa) in a

small DEhalI in an utmost vicinity with you.

 

" kAsArapUrvakavimukhyavimardajanmA

paNNAthatEkshusubhagasya rasO bahustE

thvathpAdapadma-madhuni thvadananyabhOgyE

nUnam samAsrayathi nUthanaSarkarAthvam "

 

The first three AzwArs who are divine and great poets,

enjoyed you in an extraordinary way: You (SrI DEhalISa)

are like a divine rich sugarcane grown wonderfully in the

river side of rich PENNai. The juice of this sugarcane

is the essence of your all kalyANa guNas, which is

divine SowSIlyam. The paramikAnti-mudal-AzhwArs who

do not think of anything other than your lotus feet,

pressed(!) you because of little space in the small DEhalI and

and enjoyed truly the divine nectar of your lotus feet with the

new divine Sarkara (sugar) of the essence of your kalyANa

guNa-rasam which is SowSIlyam.

 

The viSEshArthams of these verses are many. What is written here

is just an outline of the verses.

 

Thanks & Regards

M.S.HARI Ramanuja Daasan.
