SUMMARY: Vasudeva and Aniruddha, the two forms of Sri Hari, are always present in the body of men; in the body of women, the Sankarshana and Pradyumna forms of Sri Hari are present. Whoever worships Narayana with the invocation as Dwasuparna, the omnipresent, is considered to be Jeevanmukta.

Jeevanmukta means a soul that is eligible to attain salvation. Sarvasunilaya is one of the names recited in Sri Vishnusahasranama.

SUMMARY: This most charming Varadaraja is most romantic, certainly. If he was

not so, he would not have chosen Kanchee, a very distinct place of his consort

Mother Earth, to reside.

Sri Vadirajaru has deftly described Lord Varadaraju as well as the place called

Kanchipuram, which is considered to be like the jewel worn by women at the waist

of Earth.

Kanchi is considered to be one of the seven holiest places known to provide

salvation to the devotees. Kashi and Kanchi are like two eyes of Lord Rudra. It is said that when Lord Brahma performed a sacrifice here, Lord Vishnu manifested out of the sacrificial fire in the form of Sri Varadaraju. It is mentioned in the Lalitopakhyana in Brahmanda Purana that when Lord Brahma did penance seeking the Darshan of Goddess Lakshmi, she appeared in front of him along with Lord Narayana.

Kanchi is known to have been made of two parts namely Shivakanchee and Vishnukanchee.

Kancheepuram is well connected by train and surface transport.

A temple dedicated to Sri Varadaraju is situated in Vishnukanchee. The temple is about three miles away from the railway station. Shivakanchee is against about three miles away from Vishnukanchee.

Sri Vadirajaru has dedicated two more stanzas in praise of Sri Varadaraju. These two stanzas will be furnished in the next episode.

SUMMARY: Most knowledgeable (Sarvajna) younger brother of Sri Madhwaru was the head priest (Hotru) of the sacrifice that Sri Madhwaru got performed by the son of his Guru; he (younger brother of Sri Madhwaru), by chanting the Mantras eulogizing the deities through proper variations in the sound, made the respective deities happy.

Younger brother of Sri Madhwaru came to be known as Sri Vishnu Tirtharu after he was initiated into sainthood.

Yajya refers to the second Ruk or sentence of the holy chant that the priest pronounces before offering the specified item into the sacrificial fire. AnuvAkyA is a phase involved in the conclusion of the sacrifice. Pravargya, Vibhava and AbhiShTava are related to the performance of the sacrifice for which there is no word in English to exactly convey the meaning.

SUMMARY: Very sharp and intellectual brother of Sri Madhwaru reached the part of offerings to respective deities like Agni (Fire God), Vayu (Air God) and others by disappointing the Asuras and demons, who tried to spoil the sacrifice, by employing sharp weapons of appropriate holy chants, like a super Victor.

Here is an indication that proper pronounciation of appropriate Mantras or holy chants ensure perfect completion of sacrifices not only by driving away the deterrents such as attacks of demons or evil spirits but also conveying the offerings to respective deities so that they get satisfied and pleased to bless the performer. Fire God, Air God and other recipients of the offerings are known as Vishwedevatas.

SUMMARY: Twelve forms such as Keshava exist in the twelve months; Vedayasa exists in twelve Pundras or Twelve Namas or marks of Gopi worn on the body by Brahmins; Aniruddha and others reside in the Six Ritus; with this firm faith, one should do righteous deeds, without any desire or demand or expectation and pray to Lord Sri Hari, seeking his kindness and grace.

Forms of Keshava and others should be invoked each month commencing from Margasheersha month till Kartika month. Keshava and other eleven forms should be thought of while wearing the twelve linear marks on the body with Gopi Chandana.
