Even little happiness cannot be derived by praying to Devatas who are

subject to birth and death. There is no doubt about it . Only those who

worship here Lord Paramesvara who is beyond birth, has form with out death

and is accomapnied by Goddess Ambika can achieve fulfillment of the life's

objective and enjoy the bliss.

Hey! ParamEswara! Among the births that one gets rarest is the human birth.

Why should the praaNis waste it by woshipping anya dhEvathas who are subject

to jananam and maraNam? It is futile to think that one can get janma

saapalyam by worshipping anya dhEvathas. (Pl. see slOka 34 and the

commentary thereon).

 

Therefore all the janthus should, without frittering their mind in the

pursuit of vishayaas all of which are merely useless, try to do bhajanam of

ParamEswara who is beyond creation and destruction. Only then can this

janma become fruitful, otherwise 'punarapi jananam punarapi maraNam' will

become inevitable.

 

Aum Namasivaaya!
