HH Srimath InjimEdu Azhagiya Singar's Vaibhavam : Part IX : Sri Vaikunta Vasi MukkUr Sri Lakshmi NrusimhAcchAr Swamy 's tribute: 17.4 Section

[Guest guest]

Dear BhakthAs:

 

U.Ve. MukkUr Sri Lakshmi NrusimhAcchAr Swamy , a devout

sishya Rathnam of HH The Prakrutham Jeeyar of Sri Matam

is a giant among our sampradhAyic Scholars. Sri Raajya Lakshmi

SamEtha mattappaLLi NaaTan ( Sri Lakshmi Narasimhan ) was

very dear to Him . Sri MukkUr Swamy's connections to Sri Matam

go a long way. He wrote an extraordinarily brilliant article

about the Vaibhavam of HH The Revered InjimEttu Azhagiya Singar.

The Title this Swamy gave to that article was:

" Addition and Multiplication " . It is adiyEn's bhAgyam to

summarize this article here.

 

17.4: Sri Vaikunta Vaasi MukkUr Swamy's Tribute

 

Swamy starts with the many references that our AchAryALs

made to the importance of Numbers and their relationships.

He quotes in this context a passage from Rahasya Padhavi

of Swamy Desikan:

 

MoonRiloru MoonRu MooviraNDu MunnAnkum

ThOnRat thulayum Thuyar

 

(Meaning): The samsaric sorrows will disappear for one ,

when that person's mind shines with the meanings of

the AshtAksharam with the Three Padhams , Dhvayam with

Six padhams and the Charama SlOkam with 12 padhams.

 

The three rahasyams and their Padhams are related as

3 , 3 Times 2 and 3 Times 2 Squared.

 

From here on the fertile imagination of Sri MukkUr

Swamy focuses on " the Number theory " behind

the Pattams of HH Injimettu Azhagiya Singar (42),

HH DeavanArviLAgam Azhagiya Singar (43) and

HH MukkUr Azhagiya Singar (44).

 

Sri Lakshmi NrusimhAcchAr Swamy relates the three

Azhagiya Singar's Peetam Numbers with the three

rahasyams in his own inimitable way:

 

42nd Pattam = 4+2= 6 padham Rahasyam: Dhvayam

 

43rd Pattam = 4x3= 12 Padham Rahasyam: Charama SlOkam

 

44th Pattam = 4+4= 8 Akshara rahasyam : Thiru AshtAksharam.

 

HH The 42nd Azhagiya Singar as the embodiment of Dhvayam

*********************************************************

(1)It is accepted that the sakrruth-UcchAraNam ( Recitation

even once)of Dhvayam would pave the way for Moksha-Saadhanam.

Therefore , the dhyAnam of HH The 42nd Azhagiya Singar ,

who stands in place of the powerful Dhvya Manthram through

the recitation of His Taniyan will help understand the rich

meanings of Dhvayam and set us on the track for Moksham.

 

(2)Earlier AchArya Saarvabhouman , Sri RaamAnujar heard

the assurance of Thiruvaranga Chelvan , Sri RanganAthan

at Srirangam. Our 42nd pattam Azhagiya Singar had the name of

Sri RanganAthan in PoorvAsramam. His entry into SanyAsAsramam

took place at Sri RanganAthan's dhivya dEsam. The nmae He chose

for Aasrama ThirunAmam is also RanganAthan ( Sriranga SatakOpan).

Connections between Dhvayam and Srirangam goes back to

AchArya RaamAnujA and before.

 

(3)HH The 42nd Azhagiya Singar established the PaatasAlai

for training a cadre of outstanding gems of VidvAns at

the " Dhvayam Vilaintha Thiruppathi " / MadhurAnthakam ,

where AchArya RaamAnujA recived Pancha samskAram from

His AchAryan , Periya Nampi.

 

(4) The 100th anniversary of HH The 42nd Azhagya Singar

took place at the sacred feet of Chakravarthi Thirumahan

(Sri VeerarAghavan of ThiruveLLUr) , who elaborated for us

the significance of Dhvaya Manthram.

 

(5) Therefore If Dhavayam is revered as the manthra Rathnam ,

our 42nd Pattam AzhagiyaSingar ( 4+2=6 Paadha Dhvayam ) is

the AchArya rathnam for us all .HH The 42nd Jeeyar's links to

Dhvayam are formidable.

Sri Mattapalli NaaTam PranathOsmi Nithyam Namaha

 

Dear Sri Sadagopan mama,

 

Thanks for sharing with us Sri Mukkur Swami's tribute to HH Srimath

InjimEdu Azhagiya Singar. Sri Mukkur Swami took every opportunity to

sing the greatness of His Acharyans. Could adiyEn go so far to say

that He was one of the very few upanyAsakAs who recite their AchAryan

thaniyan loud and clear before starting any upanyAsam? He used to

start His upanyAsams 15 minutes before schedule to accommodate this.

 

adiyOngal had the bhAgyam of being with Him in Sri Mattapally for a

full month this time last year. He celebrated HH Mukkur Azhagiya

Singar's ThiruNakshatiram in grandeur. He had specially requisitioned

and honoured a couple of people hailing from the great village. This

was followed by the much awaited visit of HH Prakrutham Azhagiya

Singar. It was a one stop place to see the PANCHA SIMHAMS (Sri

MalOlan, Sri Mattapally Nrusimhan, Sri Yag~namoorthy, HH Jeer and Sri

Swami).

 

Even in the cassette adiyEn is currently distributing, Sri Mukkur

Swami talks repeatedly about HH InjimEdu Azhagiya Singar. He also

talks about an interesting event where HH The Jeer had recited

to HH The Prakrutham Azhagiya Singar a (double entendre) slOkA which

referred to the latter as a future AchAryan.

 

In the original cassette, this slOka was lost during the swapping

process. It would be great if you could help us enjoy this incident.

 

With Kindest Regards

adiyEn
