Srimathe: Ramanujayanamaha!

Sri Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Saranam!!

 

SriRama is adored by all and all are dear to him. To

be able to love all and to be loved by all is humanity.

This is the nature of SriRama. This is the meaning of

the word 'srirama' - Rama is happy at others' joy and

contributes to others' happiness. This is the attribute

of Bhagavan. He loves all the things and all the beings

of universe. He loves all the people in the world as

His own body and as His own children. Anything in the

world can become dear to us only due to Bhagvan's Sankalpa.

An individual's concerted efforts to make this happen will

not change the result.

 

Bhagavan is'premaswaru:pa'. He strives for the welfare of

the universe and is elated at their happiness. One who thinks

'he' is the 'body' loves his body and his kith and kin.

One who recognizes that body is different from the 'a:thma'

loves the athma more than the body. One who realizes that

'Parama:thma' is the supporter and controller of all the

a:thma:s will love 'Parama:thma' the most. Hence'Parama:thma'

ALONE is the dearest One. Bhagwan loves all and is loved by

all. This is SriRama's nature. This should be the nature of

a human too.

 

SriRama is 'sa:dhu'. His nature is to fulfill the 'ka:ryas'

(tasks) of all the people in the lo:kas. He is soft and gentle

and is eligible to be worshipped by 'sathpurusha:s'.

Bhagavan's original nature is to be worshipped by 'sathpurusha:s'.

His nature is to fulfill the 'ka:ryas'(tasks) of all the lo:kas.

Hence Bhagvan is 'sa:dhu'. SriRama never felt low-spirited.

Everyone loved him and approached him to seek his help, he had

no necessity to feel helpless or miserable and seek the refuge

of others. He was stately and dignified. He had a

'gambheera swabha:va' . He never felt that he was lacking in

anything and so never yearned to acquire it. There was no

depletion of his 'pu:rnathvam' ( completeness ) at anytime.

 

Bhagava:n's natural attribute is also 'pu:rnathvam'. Since He

can achieve everything just with His 'sankalpa' , there is

nothing that He has not got or nothing for which He has to

request someone. He is 'ava:ki:, ana:daraha'. He has no

necessity to talk in an appealing manner before anyone or ask

anyone for refuge. He never thinks that there is something fit

to be acquired and hence doesnot show any interest on it.

 

So Bhagavan is 'adi:na:thma'. Man should realize that he has

this capacity and should be an 'adi:na:thma'.

 

To be continued..........

 

JaiSreemannarayana!
