SUMMARY: That Ashram was brimming with Dwijas (Brahmins), who were spelling out pleasant, elixir-like words such as Shuka and Royal Swans (Rajahamsa) which had pure hearts that were implanted in Lord Hari, the beloved of Sri Mahalakshmi.

The Ashram was surrounded by Maharishis like Shuka, birds like parrots, great swans and other pleasant beings.

In this stanza, words such as Sukha and Hamsa have two meanings. Shuka means Shuka Maharishi and other Brahmins; Hamsa means the Royal Swan and Rishi called Paramahamsa.

KamalEShTatama can be interpreted as Lord Hari, who loves Lotus flowers and Munis, who also love Lotus flowers. Similarly, ‘AmEchakaihi’ means white colored as well as pure.    

Vaikuntha-like Ashram of Sri Vyasaru/ವೈಕುಂಠದಂತಹ ವ್ಯಾಸಾಶ್ರಮ

SUMMARY: That Ashram was sparkling like Vaikuntha, the abode of Lord Hari, with an assembly of celestial beings and deities, who can fulfill the desires of devotees and people, who were not mean minded and did not have vices such as jealousy.

As Sri Vedavyasa is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, the earthly Ashram of Sri Vedavyasa was shining like another Vaikuntha, the heavenly abode of Lord Vishnu, on Earth.

Vaikuntha is always home for Gods, goddesses and deities. It is an eternal world, where all desires are always fulfilled; conversely, no desires will haunt the people in Vaikuntha that are insane, ill-motivated or inauspicious. Vaikuntha is a heavenly place where ordinary people have no entry.
