Thirucchandhaviruttham- 74th verse- mokshapradhan is only Sriman Narayanan! Realize that...

[Guest guest]

SrI:

SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas

 

Sriya: Pathi alone is Parathvam; without His grace,

anugraham, it is impossible for getting mOksham.

Hence, why should you take refuge at Sivan who ran

along with agni and his sons during the battle of

bANAsuraa?

 

One can get wealth and other fruits from demi gods?

Why can’t we do that?- one may ask. AzhwAr responds:

 

aRinthu aRinthu vaamanana

diyaNaiva Nankinaal,

seRinthezhuntha NYaanamOdu

selvamumsi Ranthidum,

maRinthezhuntha theNdiraiyuL

mannumaalai vaazhththinaal,

paRinthezhunthu theevinaikaL

paRRaRuthal paanmaiyE. (74)

 

aRindhu aRindhu- the fruits and the granter of such

fruits is emperumAn alone- even if obtained from demi

gods, it is He who grants the fruits through them,

being the antharyaami (in dweller) of those demi gods;

Thus He alone is direct or indirect means to grant

fruits- realizing and knowing that, taking refuge at

the lotus feet of Vaamanan and pray to Him, He grants

us the Supreme jnAnam of the Supreme mOksham and the

Lordship with sakala saasthrArtthams along with the

wealth that is required for sustenance; if we sing in

praise of the glories of Sriman Narayanan who resides

permanently in noisy, wavy, Milky ocean, it is natural

that all our most cruel, karmic diseases (paapams)

will be automatically disengaged from us and run away

from us.

 

If you are looking for material wealth, jnAnam etc.,

and pray to Sankara, Agni, et al, you would get them

(there is a statement to that effect as well), they

are able to grant you the same only due to the grace

of Sriman Narayanan and Him being in the indweller in

them granting through them. Even if you pray to

EmperumAn Sriman Narayana directly, you would still

get the same; In addition, he also grants you further

more jnAnam about what is the highest goal, how to

reach the same etc.. with sakala saasthrArttha jnAnam.

 

 

The way He grants us fruits- it keeps growing; it

makes us more sattva gunA; it slowly detaches us from

material fruits and desires,. That is the difference

between getting materials from him and from demi gods.

 

 

Vaamanan is the saakshi for this. He measured the

whole universe with his feet and granted to devendra.

What else can be a bigger materialistic wealth?

 

With His grace, the jnAna virOdhis will automatically

will vanish. jnAnam about Himself will increase. About

moKsham, the means will come in with sadAchArya

sambandham (also getting through His grace). Thus

enjoying His deceitful Vaamana avathAram would grant

one the lokwika jnAnam as well which can attract the

world.

 

The way AzhwAr describes Vaamanan in first two lines

and the paaRkadal PadmanAbhan denotes this inner

meaning. Sri Uttamur Swami writes: however way the

waves arise, the milky ocean is clear and crystal like

and He reclines with sakala sowndharyam, pushpahaasa

sukumAran Sriman Narayanan reclines so divinely

beautiful on the white Adhi sEshan; We can enjoy the

darshan and anubhavam of His dhivya mangaLa vigraham

of Anantha sayanan and enjoy Him uninterruptedly.

Insteda, why should we (like Devendran) pray to him

for material wealth and make him get up from sayanam,

make him wander as Vaamanan and beg to others… IS it

appropriate?

 

If we pray, He comes down to lowliest level stooping

down so low from His highest level and start as

Akinchanan (helpless Brahmachari) and fulfil our

requests. But let that be so. It is not in accordance

with our essential nature of jeevathman. That’s why

AzhwAr says: vaazhtthinaal [praise Him with

pallaandu].. in third line and vaNanginaal [pray to

Him with requests] in first line.

 

Naturally and automatically, when we sing pallaandu to

Him, the paapams vanish. It is His nature and mercy

that he removes them. Because there is no goal other

than enjoying His glories, He cleanses us of the

paapams which will be a hurdle for our enjoyment

eternally.

 

Thus singing His names only for the mere enjoyment of

His names thus cleanses of our sins due to his grace

and paves the way for performance of Saranagati at His

lotus feet.
