SUMMARY: Oh Omnipotent consort of Sri Lakshmi, Sri Narayana, you may be residing in the holy place of Kumbhaghona, concealing your Bow called #Sharnga; even then, people will identify you, the most radiant and dazzling Lord, as Sri Narayana.

Ghruta signifies an earthen pot or urn and Kumbha refers to the neck of the pot. Sri Vadirajaru is telling here that even if Lord Narayana hides inside an earthen pot, below the neck of the pot and hides his famous Bow called Sharnga, people will not fail to recognize him because he is so radiant. The radiation of Lord Narayana at Kumbhaghona is so powerful that even Lord cannot fully become incognito or hide himself in any manner.

SUMMARY: Oh #Lord #Sharngapani (one beholding the bow called Sharnga), you have killed all the demons, who had burdened the Earth with their heavy weight, and protected all the human beings; now, the target of your great bow Sharnga and the arrows is the sins committed by human beings.

Lord Vishnu incarnated several times to reduce the weight on Mother Earth by killing the demons and those who were tormenting the Rishis, Munis, Saints, the spirituous and the righteous. At present, there are no virtual Asuras or demons. However, the Asuras are now in the form of various sins that every human being commits, knowing or unknowingly. Sri Vadirajaru is appealing to Lord Vishnu in this stanza to cleanse the sins and pave the path of providence or Moksha with the same holy bow called Sharnga and the lethal arrows that had killed several Asuras on several occasions.

In Hindu epics, the present Kumbhakonam has been referred as Kamakoshneepura. At present, both Kumbhakonam and #Kumbhaghonam are in vogue.

According to the legend, before commencing the creation, Lord Brahma kept the gift given to him by Lord Hari in the form of nature inside the cosmic earthen pot and had kept that pot in this place, i.e. Kamakoshneepura or the present Kumbhakonam.

There is another more popular legend attached to Kumbhakonam. Lord Brahma once performed a holy sacrifice. Impressed with the devotion of Lord Brahma, Lord Rudra appeared in front of the former and presented him with an earthen urn containing Elixir. Lord Brahma kept the elixir-filled pot in a place, which is now popular as Kumhaghona or Kumbhakona. There was a small hole near the nose or slightly above the neck of that Earthen Pot. The elixir began flowing out of the pot through the tiny hole. The region where the elixir fell in small drops became wet. The elixir flew across the region up to a distance of five Kroshas or Haradari. Therefore, this place came to be known as Kumbhakona.

The place is well connected through surface transport facility. Kumbhakonam is on the banks of Kaveri. There are five very popular temples here, namely Kumbheshwara, Sharngapani, Nageshwara, Ramaswamy and Chakrapani.

According to another legend, once Sage Bhrugu wanted to know who among Vishnu, Brahma and Rudra was greater. When he went to Vaikuntha, Lord Vishnu pretended as though he had not seen Sage Bhrugu. Enraged by this attitude, Bhrugu Rishi kicked Lord Vishnu on the chest. Sri Lakshmi was surprised by seeing Vishnu engaged in worshipping Bhrugu Rishi, who actually deserved a curse. Lakshmi Devi descended on Earth and lived here, as a daughter of a Rishi called Hema. Unable to bear the nostalgia after the departure of Lakshmi Devi, Sri Narayana came down to Earth, married the daughter of Sage Hema. The form worn by Lord Vishnu to marry Hema is said to be Sharngapani.

Sri Sharngapani Temple of Kumbhakonam is one of the largest temples in Tamil Nadu, dedicated to Lord Vishnu. This is also considered to be one among the Pancharanga temples. Medieval Cholas, Vijayanagar rulers and Nayaks are said to have contributed to the architecture of this temple, historically. There is no second thought or opinion about the fact that this is one of the most ancient temples of South India.

Sri Raghavendra Swamy Virachita SRI #RAMACHARITRYA #MANJARI (ಶ್ರೀ #ರಾಘವೆಂದ್ರಸ್ವಾಮಿ ವಿರಚಿತ “#ಶ್ರೀ ರಾಮಚಾರಿತ್ರ್ಯ ಮಂಜರಿ”)

 Sri Raghavendra Swamy Virachita

SRI #RAMACHARITRYA #MANJARI

(ಶ್ರೀ #ರಾಘವೆಂದ್ರಸ್ವಾಮಿ ವಿರಚಿತ “#ಶ್ರೀ ರಾಮಚಾರಿತ್ರ್ಯ ಮಂಜರಿ”)       

Srirama directs Bharata to relieve the people of Kekaya from terrorists/ಕೇಕಯ ದೇಶವನ್ನು ರಕ್ಕಸರ ಉಪಟಳದಿಂದ ಮುಕ್ತಿಗೊಳಿಸಬೇಕೆಂದು ಶ್ರೀರಾಮನು ಭರತನಿಗೆ ಆದೇಶಿಸುತ್ತಾನೆ

Once, Yudhajit, maternal uncle of Srirama and king of Kekaya State, sent a Brahmin to Srirama. Born in Angirasa Gotra and named as Gargya, that Brahmin meets Srirama, hands over rich gifts sent with him to Srirama and conveys the message of Yudhajit:

“Oh Lord, there is a country called Gandharva on both the sides of Sindhu River. In that country, there is abundance of fruits and other food items that are essential for the animals. In this rich country, about three crore children of a Gandharva called Shailusha are living. They have defeated all the kings and are troubling the righteous. Oh kind-hearted Protector, please kill these three crore demons and save the lives of the righteous. You may annex that country with your kingdom. None except you can accomplish this task. This is what your maternal uncle has appealed to you through me.”

Srirama heard what the Brahmin said, patiently, and replied: “Oh Great Brahmin, I will send with you Bharata and his two children Taksha and Pushkala. Let my maternal uncle fight against the demons and kill them under the command of Bharata and his children. Later, let Bharata divide the Gandharva country into two parts, install his two sons as kings of those two nations and return.”

As ordered by Srirama, Bharata took his two sons and a huge army with him to Kekaya. He had to walk about one-and-a-half month to reach Kekaya. After getting honored by Yudhajit, Bharata waged war against the Gandharva-demons. The battle lasted for almost seven days. On the seventh day, Bharata shot an arrow called Samvarta and killed all the Gandharvas, instantly. Gods and deities created a rain of flowers on Bharata in appreciation. The country was divided into two parts. One part was named as Takshashila and Taksha was installed as the king of hat country. Pushkala was made the king of the other half called Pushkalavarta. Bharata lived there for five years, returned to Ayodhya and saluted Srirama.

Srirama looked at Angada and Chandraketu, the two sons of Lakshmana and expressed his desire to make them kings of a certain region. Bharata suggested that a rich country called Karupatha could be governed by Angada. The city of Angadeeya in Karupatha can be the Capital of that kingdom. Another large city called Chandrakanta in Mallabhumi could be the capital city of the kingdom to be ruled by Chandraketu.

Srirama was pleased with the suggestion and at his behest, Lakshmana took his two sons to the respective cities, installed one each in the specified city. He was with his children for about a year. Impressed with their governance, Lakshmana returned to Ayodhya.

SUMMARY: “Oh fools! Do not fall into the water by being adventurous! How can there be any threat from us as we are in a small number and you are quite a number, compared to us? We are going to meet your King. Why do you want to create a brawl now?

Sri Madhwacharyaru saw many soldiers jumping into the Ganga to send away Sri Madhwaru and his pupils, when Sri Madhwaru spoke to them in their dialect and advised them not to venture into the rough waters of Ganga. After his advise, the soldiers abstained from venturing into the river and were saved.

SUMMARY: With this sort of an address, Sri Madhwacharyaru stopped the attacking soldiers from advancing like a sorcerer silences snakes and rescued his pupils from the deadly fear and took them to the other side of the river.

After hearing the voice of Sri Madhwaru, the advancing soldiers stood like statues like ghosts are stopped from an enchanter.

The crossing of the river was not only the crossing of a river in spate but also crossing the river of fear of death.

It may be remembered that when Vasudeva was carrying the just-born baby Krishna in a bamboo basket, Yamuna River, which was then in spate, ‘cleaved into chasms’ and paved the way for Vasudeva to walk across the river. Sri Madhwaru was carrying Lord Krishna in his heart and it was not surprising that Sri Krishna took Sri Madhwaru and his pupils to the other side of the river without any trouble.

SUMMARY: Although surrounded by the innumerable, cruel Turkish soldiers, Monitor of the Universe, Sri Madhwacharyaru, shone like a lion among a large number of foxes.

Sri Madhwaru was not deterred by the threatening soldiers and crossed the river, boldly, without any sort of fear or suspicion. After all, in his previous incarnation as Hanuman, he filled the heart of Ravana with fear. As Bheemasena during Dwapara Yuga, he was the most feared person from Dhrutarashtra, Duryodhana and others.

In this stanza, Sri Madhwaru has been symbolically likened to Lion and the Turkish soldiers to foxes, respectively.

SUMMARY: The knowledgeable people should think of the one thousand five hundred and twenty-six (1526) forms of Narayana existing in four types of bodies, right from the grass to Lord Brahma. He will bless those meditating the names such as Sun’s rays, Sun, Aditya every day with very good wealth of health.

 

Sri Vyasaru explains this aspect in Vishnurahasya:

शब्दाद्या विषयाः पन्च तत्राविष्टास्तु दॆवताः।

The names Ghruni (Sun’s rays), Sun (Surya) and Aditya are mentioned in the Sun Chant (Surya Mantra) and chanting this hymn ensures health, rain, good harvest and other riches, as stated in the concluding part of the chant while describing the benefits. However, Sri Hari exists in the Sun and bestows all the benefits that are believed to accrue to those who chant this hymn. Aitareya Bhashya explains:

“NArAyaNam SUryagatO gAyatryOpAsakO hi saha”|

“नारायणं सूर्यगतॊ गायत्र्यॊपासकॊ हि सः”।

Sri Krishna says in Gita: “YadAdityagatam tEjO tattEjO vidDhi mAmakam”

SUMMARY: Oh Lord of the Universe and Supreme God Varaha with white complexion, who tore the rock-hard body of Hiranyaksha with your tusks, took your subservient servant Earth, passionately embraced her and roaming about here with her.

Sri Bhuvaraha Swamy temple at Srimushnam in Tamil Nadu is dedicated to Sri Varaha Avatar or incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Constructed in the Dravidian style, Sri Bhuvaraha Swamy Temple at Srimushnam is a very popular pilgrimage.

Sri Varaha is the third incarnation of Lord Vishnu, which was undertaken to kill Hiranyaksha, brother of Hiranyakashipu, and to save Mother Earth.

Hiranyaksha was a devotee of Lord Brahma and secured a boon from Lord Brahma that no God, human, Demon, Deity, Animal or Beast could kill him. With this boon, Hiranyaksha thought he had become immortal and began torturing the people, harassing gods, goddesses, including Indra. With a view to inflict some permanent trouble to people and gods, Hiranyaksha caught the Mother Earth and took her to the nether world or Patala Loka through sea. Mother Earth began sinking.

Manu was the ruler at that time and along with his wife Shatarupa, he rushed to Lord Brahma and appealed to Lord Brahma to save the Earth. Brahma was helpless since he alone had bestowed the boon upon Hiranyaksha.

Lord Brahma meditated in the name of Lord Vishnu and sought his interference for saving Earth.  Lord Vishnu incarnated as Bhoo Varaha, the form of a Boar. Sri Varaha Swamy ploughed through the ocean. At that moment, Hiranyaksha confronted Varaha Swamy, after he was told by Narada that Lord Vishnu was already at the bottom of the ocean to save Earth. Hiranyaksha rushed towards Sri Varaha Swamy and in the battle that ensued between Sri Varaha and Hiranyaksha, Lord Varaha killed Hiranyaksha, carried the Earth on his protruded mouth and the two tusks and refixed her on her orbit.    

Srimushnam is about 26 miles from Chidambaram through surface transport. It is said that Sri Madhwacharyaru had visited this place and had created a pond there. The pond is known as Danda Teertha. It is also believed that Sri Vishnu incarnated as Varaha at Srimushnam.

 Sri Raghavendra Swamy Virachita

SRI #RAMACHARITRYA #MANJARI

(ಶ್ರೀ #ರಾಘವೆಂದ್ರಸ್ವಾಮಿ ವಿರಚಿತ “#ಶ್ರೀ ರಾಮಚಾರಿತ್ರ್ಯ ಮಂಜರಿ”)       

Before commencing the virtual Ashwamedha, the Horse/Stallion identified to be sacrificed, should be worshipped and decorated well. It should be left to roam about freely and the Stallion should wander at will. Anyone trying to control it should be stopped from doing so and if necessary wage war against him and make him surrender.

Srirama worshipped the horse and set it free to roam about. Shatrughna was assigned the duty of guarding the Stallion.

He summoned Seetha Devi, Kusha and Lava from the Ashram of Valmeeki and entered the Yajna Shala, along with the four sections of his defense force. Kings from all the countries arrived with tributes and presentations.

Sugreeva and other monkeys served food and water to Brahmins. Lord Brahma, son of Srirama, Rudra and other gods, goddesses and deities arrived to witness the Ashwamedha, especially because it was being performed by the sole recipient of the offerings made in the Sacrifice. Srirama was not only the performer of the sacrifice but also the beneficiary.

The rituals went on for a year. Srirama made everyone happy with rich gifts, presentations et all. Subsequently, Srirama performed Agnishtoma Atiratra, Vajapeya and many other sacrifices.

Once he saw Gargya, born in Angirasa Gotra, who had been sent by the King of Kekaya country. Came to know from him (Gargya) about the trouble being caused by over three crore demon children of a Gandharva  called Shailusha and got them killed by assigning the responsibility to Bharata, who had to go to Gandharvanagara to accomplish the task.

The details will be narrated in the next episode.

SUMMARY: Kind-hearted Sri Madhwacharyaru, leading all his pupils as the guardian-in-chief, kept his words by making his pupils cross the Ganga with ease, like as though they were crossing the ocean of family/worldly life.

Sri Madhwacharyaru asked his pupils to stand one-behind the other, each touching the one in front by hand and pupil immediately behind him was to hold the loin cloth he was wearing and walked across the river.

Symbolically, Sri Madhwaru, an incarnation of Lord Vayu, removes the common obstacles like lust, anger etc. that deter the journey towards salvation/Moksha.

SUMMARY: “Stop them from the enemy side! Stop them! Kill them before they reach this side of the river! Kill them! Kill them!”, the Turkish King was yelling at his soldiers and was rushing briskly towards Sri Madhwacharya and his pupils, when, Sri Madhwaru replied to the advancing soldiers in their native Turkish tongue.

As it is common in the legal parlour to respond to the defence witnesses in their native tongue, Sri Madhwaru spoke to the Turkish attackers in their mother tongue so that could first realize that those crossing river were not from the enemy side and secondly, they immediately abstained from any untoward or unpleasant action.

Word “Marayata, Marayata” employed in this stanza is synonymous of “MAro” in Turkish language.
