Sri Alavandhaar's SthOthra Rathnam verse- 45- His eternally Youthful; anantha kalyANa guNArNavan..

[Guest guest]

SrI:

SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

 

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

 

Earlier, the playful deeds of the Lord were described;

The divine beauty of The Lord’s dhivya mangaLa vigraha

was described before; now- along with the divine

beauty of the ThirumEni (Divine Body) along with the

auspicious attributes (kalyANa guNAs) is described.

 

achinthya dhivyaadbutha nithya yowvana

swabhAvalAvaNya mayaamrudhOdhadhim

sriya: sriyam bhaktha janaika jeevitham

samarttham aapath sakam aartthi kalpakam [45]

 

incomprehensible, unperceivable, transcendental

[aprAkrutha] most wonderful [athyAscharya] eternal,

naturally ever Youthful, blue hued nectarine form of

Divine Bodied Lord- The One who is the Sree of Sree

Mahalakshmi (wealth of Sri Mahalakshmi); who is the

very life breadth of His dearest devotes; Most

Omniscient, Omnipotent, full of power; Shakthimaan;

Sarva Shakthan; who helps [us] in danger [friend in

need]; who grants everything whatever asked for by His

devotees like the kalpaka vruksham…

 

He is ever Youthful eternal, divine Beauty and the

Prince of Srivaikuntam- Alavandhaar is overwhelmed by

the unmatchable beauty of the Youthful Lord and

focuses on the overall beauty [laavaNyam] and also

different aspects of the soundharyam one limb at a

time . KesAdhi paadhAntha varNanai of the Lord's

soundharyam was undertaken by Alavandhar earlier and

now the overall Beauty of the insatiable nectar-

AparyApthAmurtha Parabrahmam. He is Nithyam; He is

anAdhi; Naturally He is ever Youthful; [not due to

someone else] Thus This ThirumEni (divine Body] is

insatiable nectar; When the Body is referred to, He is

also referred to as His ThirumEni is unlike ours. It

is aprAkrutham- transcendental; eternal and hence He

is also insatiable nectar. Thus, all adjectives in the

verse apply to both His ThirumEni and Himself.

 

Thus Paravaasudeva roopam is anslo Nithya, youthful,

and naturally transcendental. ParamEswara samhitha

also says: nithyasiddhE thadhaakaarE tathparathvE cha

poushkara: yasyaasthi sakthir hrudhayE thasyaasow

sannidhim vrajEth.. Yowvana swabhAva- always Young.

Thus never childhood or Old.. Eternally Youthful.

 

Sriya Sriyam.. She enchants Him with Her divine

glances and also enslaves the devotees and lets them

be His devotees and surrender to His Lotus Feet to

serve Him and be His kaimkarya parars for ever.

Bhaktha janaika jeevitham- Like PiraaTTi, He also is

compassionate towards bhakthas and considers Himself

as their life breadth..

Also he considers the jnAnis (Bhakthas) as the life

for Himself.

 

When all this is combined for Both Him and Her, the

saamarthyam is also bhOgyam for each other.

 

Apathsakhan- He is like the friend who rushes to

rescue when one is in danger. Gajendra – when he

yelled AdhimoolamE- He rushed with such intense speed,

that even ChakrA and Lakshmi came running behind Him

an caught Him on the way (it is told). Sri Parasara

Bhattar pays his obeisance to His speed (tvarai) with

which he rushed to save Gajendra.

 

When some one cries with languishing for Him and or

longs to serve Him and calls Him, He would rush to

help and save just like what He did for GajendrazhwAn.

 

 

Artthikalpaka- He grants all fruits; He considers

those who ask Him and neg Him for fruits as Kalpaka

vruksham. Means: He grants them so much, that they

themselves become the vaLLals (benefactors) and they

start giving others.. Look at demi gods.

 

He is koLLakuRaivilan; When He grants, He does not

become poorer; He on the other hand, become greater

and establishes His unparalleled supremacy. It is only

others who become poorer, when they give, as their

wealth and powers are limited.

 

Whenever others see or think of Him, they ask Him- can

also be the interpretation.
