SRI HARIKATHAMRUTASARA /

ಶ್ರೀ ಜಗನ್ನಾಥದಾಸ ವಿರಚಿತ ಶ್ರೀ ಹರಿಕಥಾಮೃತಸಾರ   

The way Sri Hari brings one into family fold/ಶ್ರೀ ಹರಿ ಸಂಸಾರಕ್ಕೆ ಸೆಳೆದು ತರುವ ರೀತಿ

            ಲಿಂದ ಗುಣಗಳ ಚೇತನಕೆ ಸಂ

SUMMARY: Like a father gets his son married by inviting all his relatives and friends with great enthusiasm and spirit, makes his son stay in his house, husband of Indire Lord Sri Hari (Indiraramana) correlates the animate beings with their attributes and virtues and keeps them within the bond of family life, which is an admixture of pleasure and displeasure.  

As explained in Mahabharata and Tatparyanirnaya, a wife can be treated as “wisdom” because after marriage, the man starts thinking about his wife, his family, his children, family welfare and finally ends up developing the “ego”.

Like a virtuous son remembers what his father had done to him, with gratitude, starts thinking of the welfare of his family and acts like a worthy son, a Satwik person realizes quickly that the Lord has blessed him with good body, good health, good parents, good knowledge and everything and surrenders himself to Lord Hari. On the other hand, people with Tamas mind imbibe pride, selfishness, cruelty, crooked nature, evil motives and so on.

The omnipresence of Lord Hari is unintelligible/ಶ್ರೀ ಹರಿಯ ವ್ಯಾಪ್ತಿ ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಗಹನ

56.      ತೃಣಕೃತಾಲಯದೊಳಗೆ ಪೊಗೆ ಸಂ-

SUMMARY: Like the smoke emanating from fire ignited in a Parnakuti, a hermitage with thatched ceiling, passes through the tiny holes in the ceiling to indicate that there is fire inside but does not openly show the flames, Lord Hari stays in every being and everything in this Brahmanda, performs all the acts and deeds according to their eligibility criteria, without being visible to anyone.   

The golden words in Gita are: “TEna vinA truNamapi na chalati” (Without Him, not a grass shakes). Parnakuti means TruNakrutAlaya – a hermitage constructed with dry grass (thatched hut).

It is said “Yatra DhUmaha tatra vahnihi”. In English too we have a proverb “Where there is smoke, there is fire”. The smoke oozes out of small pores in the thatched hut or hermitage. But, the flames of fire are never seen outside. Lord Hari is inside everything and every being. But, he can never be seen. All thoughts and actions of humans are directed by Lord Hari, though normally it is claimed by humans that he or she is thinking or acting. It needs a lot of devotion to the Lord to realize the reality.
