SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest all,

 

After the first four AzhwArs namely, Poigai, bhootha,

Pey and Thirumazhisai Azhwars’ anubhavams, next we

immerse ourselves in the most wonderful verses of

Kulasekara PerumAn’s on ThiruvEnkatam. It is the

fourth decad of his PerumAL Thirumozhi.

 

pinnitta sadaiyaanum piramanu manthiranum

thunnittu pukalariya vaikuntha neeLvaasal

minvattas sudaraazhi vEngatakkOn thaanumizhum

ponvattil pidiththudanE pukappeRuvE NnaavEnE 4.3

 

In the last verse 4.2, AzhwAr had pleaded to

ThiruvEnkatamudaiyaan for being ordained to be born as

a fish in the Swami Pushkarinee. Azhwar then reasons

out that the stream could perhaps dry up and the fish

may die, thus denying him further Anubhavam of

Bhagavan. The thought of separation from Bhagavan is

extremely painful to the Azhwar. This must be noted in

the context of the Azhwar's desire for daily

pilgrimage to Srirangam so that he could constantly be

by the side of his Abhimana Dhaivam, Lord Rama and

enjoy Bhagavath and Bhaagavata Kainkaryam. Therefore,

he seeks a better way to remain by the side of the

Lord. {which leads us to the next verse 4.3]

 

The matted lock haired Rudra, the Chathurymukha

Brahma, Devendra and all other devas rush to your gate

in order to have darshana bhaagyam of Yours at

ThiruvEnkatam. To such Supreme Lord Sri Srinivaasan,

may I blessed to be the kaimkarya parar [humble

servant] to hold the golden bowl for Him to spit after

rinsing His ThiruppavaLa chevvaay [red coral lipped

mouth].

 

Thereby, adiyEn can enjoy his yoga nithrA; He gets up

and looks at me first… hence adiyEn gets the bliss of

having his divinely Beautiful ThirumEni as a feast for

my eyes. And also adiyEn is at His beck and call to

hold the golden bowl for Him to spit after rinsing His

most beautiful mouth.. He would also call me or

address me perhaps… [What a great anubhavam by AzhwAr

to aspire for this position! The King who had ruled

chera, Chozha Paandya dEsam, has aspired for holding

the golden bowl for the Lord to rinse His mouth and

spit into the bowl] It is a message to us, to be a

humble servant to Bhagawaan and Bhaagawathas and not

to be proud, arrogant, and great that we are equipped

with few cents in our bank or few huts in one corner

of His Kingdom. That is also His Blessing and His

property.

 

Sri Muralidhar Rangaswamy shares His anubhavam for

this vers: In the third Pasuram, the Azhwar desires to

hold the spit bowl of Lord Srinivasa. The message here

is that when the Lord cleans his mouth with the water

from the bowl while brushing his teeth, his benign

glance will inevitably fall on the person who holds

the bowl. This is a sure shot method to obtain the

grace of the Lord. In the Daya Shatakam, Swami Desikan

states that a mere benevolent glance of Lord Srinivasa

is sufficient to absolve an individual of Deva Runa,

Rishi Runa and Pitru Runa. The Azhwar points out an

excellent method for obtaining this blessing. This

Pasuram is also indicative of the fact that Bhaktas

throng to the Temple of Srinivasa in large numbers and

vie with one another to have a Darshanam of Lord

Srinivasa just like Brahma, Indra and Rudra compete

with one another to get a Darshanam of Lord Narayana

at Thirumala. Hence, the entrance gate to the Temple

of Lord Srinivasa is just as difficult to enter as the

door to Sri vaikuntam. " Wouldn't it make my task

easier if I wait for the Lord at the gate [Vaikunta

Dwaram] holding his spit bowl, and be assured of his

Darshanam? " This seems to be the thought of the

Azhwar.
