SRI MADHWAVIJAYA - TRUTEEYAHA SARGAHA SHLOKAS 13, 14 AND 15


SRI MADHWAVIJAYA – TRUTEEYAHA SARGAHA SHOLKAS 13, 14 AND 15

(Three-year-old Vasudeva continues his narration and surprises his father with his eloquence in these stanzas. Please read, comment and share. SDN)

SUMMARY: “Was he not the same Narayana of Talekudi, who was with me from the time I saluted there, set off from there to arrive at the Chandramauleshwara temple in the eastern side here and till I saluted Sri Hari, the intrinsic Lord present within Lord Chandramauleshwara?”    

The custom of saluting Chandramauleshwara is still in vogue at Udupi. 
It has been mentioned in Rajatapeethapuramahatmya that there was a holy pond in the place where Sri Chandramauleshwara temple is presently situated. Later, Lord Moon did a penance to appease Lord Shiva there and as a token of that penance, the presiding deity has become Sri Chandramauleshwara.

SUMMARY: “I came from there to this place, along with him, and saluted the Lord present here.” With these words, Vasudeva surprised everyone there. He got honoured by all those who had assembled there.

This incident establishes the fact that Lord Narayana will always be with Lord Vayu and it also reaffirms that Lord Narayana will always protect his devotees.

SUMMARY: Sri Madhyageha appealed to the Lord by stating “Oh Lord, epitome of kindness, please protect this son of mine, as I am the most unfortunate to be always keen on travelling, from the spirits and vampires that abound on the dreadful path.”
