Who are You?

[Guest guest]

Dear Swamins

 

E-mails are pouring in for the last couple of days to send " Who are you ? " to them, seperating it from " Sri Mahalakshmi Sthuthi--15.

 

Adiyen felt that it shoud be obliged atonce not only to them but also others

 

Here is " who are you ? " again

 

W H O A R E Y O U ?

This is often raised by many

 

Who are you to ask ?

Who are you to dictate ?

Who are you direct and somany " who are you "

 

These are all out of arrogance, out of head-weight , out of haughty, out of indifference etc etc

 

These are all at the young age and somewhat in the middle age when they feel that the entire world is under their feet. Their eyes will throw contempt on the persons who advise them. Their eyes will ignore the elite persons standing before them. Adamant to core, even to go nearby to these elites.

 

These are all DIRECT

 

There are " INDIRECTS" also

 

Who is he to ask?

Who is he to dictate etc etc

 

Even " Pundits "with arrogance used to ask others like these.

There is no relevence between their "Yogyatha "( educational qualification ) and conduct

 

When we go deep to analyse these it can be said that at one stage, we failed to teach asto how to behave with the knowledge of learnings. We focussed on " yogyatha "( qualification ) and yogyatha only. In 1930s or 1940s, situation was not like as above. We failed to teach to ask" WHO AM I ". even we failed to ask ourselves

 

W H O A M I ?

 

I am so and so; it is not enough. I am post-graduate---it is it's end. I am a leading Professor, created thousands and thousands of elite students. This is also not enough. What is the use in creating such of those indifferent elites ? May be I am one among them. The end-product is like that. I am a Vidwan. I am a famous singer. Do they relect you, real;ly ? No

 

Who am I ?

 

I am Uruppattur Soundararajn

 

Alright, then in the previous janma ? Who knows ?

 

Who am I ?

 

We should ask this question ourselves frequently( either male or female )

 

For this, Sastras help

 

We are jeevathmas. With sastra jnanam , we have to take refuge under the lotus feet of " Piratti and Perumal "

 

Bhagavan asks the question " Who are you ? " with affection on us during " Puryanga Vidya " ( Kindl;y read adiyen's Marupadiyum piraviya ? bhagavanin thiruvadiya ? ) Prapannan answers to these These are all real

" who are you ?" and " Who am I ? "

 

This reality will not come all of a sudden unless our unbiased, well qualified and pious acharya's sambandam. With this, the real jnanam will flourish and it will lead to to take absolute surrender before "Piratti " who will destroy all sins, increase jnanam and subsequently recommend to Bhagavan to accept absolute surrender.

She is " Purushakara bhoothai "

 

We have to erase " who are you ? " .... " who is he ? " from our mind-set and ask " who am I ? "forwhich anugraha of Piratti is necessary.

 

Sri U.Ve. Muralidhar Rangaswamy aptly said in his e-mail on 9th october like this

 

It would be timely to point out that all namams for Thayar from the Sri Sooktham are contained in the ashtottara Shatha dhivya nAmAvaLi for Ranganayaki Thayar. This is especially appropriate in the context of Jabam...

The ashtottaram can be used in daily aradhanam for Thayar

 

Oh, Swamins, kindly do aradhanam for Thayar with thisd ashtottaram/ Do "Sree" jabham,

duly participating in the kaimkaryam of construction of " Thayar Sannidhi "of " Sri Ranga nayaki Thayar " at Gopurapatti by donating atleast Rs 3210/- being the cost of ten sq.ft. of construction which can be donated as " Deepavali donation " by you
