Dearest all,

 

Let us continue to enjoy AzhwArs wonderful verses on

ThiruvEnkatam.

Today’s ThiruvEnkatam verse is: NammAzhwAr’s

Thiruvaaymozhi 6.10.9

 

vandhaay pOlE vaaraadhaay!

vaaraa thaaypOl varuvaanE,

sendhaa maraikkaN senganivaay

naalthO LamuthE! enathuyirE,

sindhaa maNikaL pagarallaip

pagalsey thiruvENG kadaththaanE,

andhO! adiyEn unpaadham

agala killEn iRaiyumE.

 

.....An excellent and esoteric pAsuram- this one and

the next one. PerumaanE! You entered into my heart and

have granted me immense happiness and anubhavam of

having come into my heart. But You have NOT SHOWN

YOURSELF FOR MY PHSYICAL EYES. I AM NOT ABLE TO SEE

YOU AND TOUCH YOU WITH MY HANDS. Hence, You have NOT

ACTUALLY COME. i.e. When I realize that You are not

attainable and You have not come for me to touch You,

I suffer terribly and melt; Then, You have suddenly

made Yourself present in my heart and made me realize

that You have COME. Oh My Dearest Lord! You have red

Lotus like Beautiful eyes; BimbhA fruit like lips and

mouth, Broad, Large Huge Four shoulders; My Life! My

Dear! You are standing so gracefully at TirumalA,

where the Most precious stones (like ChinthAmaNi) in

those mountains shine so brightly that even dark

nights appear and are illumined like broad daylights.

Oh ThiruvEnkadamudaiyaanE! I, (adiyEn), CAN NOT EVEN

FOR A FRACTION OF A SECOND, STAY AWAY FROM THE ABODE

OF YOUR LOTUS FEET AT TIRUMALA AND MY ENJOYMENT OF

BEING WITH YOU. (So beautifully written by AzhwAr;]

 

AzhwAr has intense desire and longing tvarai (urgency)

to rest at the Lord's cool feet . He realized that he

had to perform an anushtAnam to realize the fruit of

that longing. He chose the UpAyam of Prapatti

[saranagti]. He recognized that Prapatti to the ArchA

murthy is the better upAyam than Prapatti to other

forms of the Lord such as Param, VyUham, Vibhavam and

AntharyAmi. He concluded next the performance of

Prapatti to the ArchAmUrthy standing on top of

Venakata Giri. This is the sequence of happenings

starting from the first paasuram ulahamunda peruvAyA

to ahalahillEn. Let us enjoy the ahalahillEn pAsuram

tomorrow.
