SUMMARY: Sri Hari is the intrinsic addressee of all the fifty alphabets, vowels, short and long sounds, conjunctions, punctuation marks etc., and is present in the forms represented or addressed by all words and sentences. But, only deities know the forms and names of these words, letters etc., and they worship Lord Hari with that proficient knowledge. Therefore, whatever they state or speak indicate the meanings of Vedas.

Aitareyopanishat states:

SarvE VEdAha sarvE GhOShAha vyAhrutihi|

सर्वॆ वॆदाः सर्वॆ घॊषः व्याहृतिः।

In Vayupurana, Shandilyatattwa, it is elaborated:

Sri Madhwacharyaru has provided special meanings of long and short vowel sounds in his Rugbhashya, Aitareyabhashya and other works.

SUMMARY: The most precious sacrifice to Lord is meeting the self-desires or wishes with the clear, proper and perfect knowledge of Lord Sri Hari, devotion for his servants with proper discriminatory knowledge, disinterest in worldly pleasures, aversion or hatred towards atheists and pagans and firm belief that Lord Sri Hari, the consort of Lakshmi, is present in all beings and that is the perfect worship of the Lord.

Sri Madhwacharyaru has emphasized this perception in his Gitatatparya. In Bhagavata we come across the following:

SUMMARY: Sri Hari is present in Earth, Water and Fire, ten organs and their respective favoring deities like Prana (Vayu) and will be visible to those deities. Being the eternal powerhouse of super most qualities, he is the recipient of all subjects for which he wears the form of Sankarushana.

SUMMARY: The main castle that glows in the midst of a cluster of radiant, palacial buildings belongs to Lord Sri Hari. It puts aside everything that is considered outstanding, miraculous and spectacular. It shines like the radiation tha sruounds the Moon amidst the clusters of stars.

It is quite common that Full Moon overshines all other Stars and he lights up a vast area. The royal palace of Lord Sri Hari shines brither than all other palacial buildings that are seen in Vaikuntha.

The word “Dwija” in the compound expression “DwijamanDalasThashashimanDalavat” refers to Stars because in Sri Bhagavata too Dwija has been employed to mean star. In Gita, Lord Krishna says: “nakShatrANAmaham Shashi” even though Moon is not considered to be a star in the common parlour. He is referred to as a star because he shines amidst several stars around him.

There is no Lord equal to Sri Hari and no castle that can match the castle of Sri Hari. “VenkaTAdrisamam sThAnam brahmAnDE nAsti kinchana|VEnkaTEshasamO dEvO na BhUtO na BhaviShyati||{वॆन्कटाद्रिसमं स्थानं ब्रह्मान्डॆ नास्ति किन्चन।वॆन्कटसमॊ दॆवॊ न भूतॊ न भविष्यति।

SUMMARY: In that sublime bastion of Lord, Sri Ramadevi, who is being attended, served and worshipped by thousands of female attenders, does all the domestic work personally and is worshipping her consort Sri Hari; who can describe the charm of that scene?

Being the wife of the Lord of the Universe and being the Goddess of words and wealth, Sri Ramadevi does not abstain from performing the domestic duties. Her activities and reverence to Lord is symbolic of the duties of a wife towards her husband. In Bhagavata it is mentioned:

SUMMARY: Unparalleled Kamalapati Sri Hari, even though he is self-pleasurable, rests on the soft body of ever-free Shesha in that Mandir and plays passionately with blemishless, charming and lotus-eyed Mahalakshmi.

Sri Hari is self-pleasurable. He does not need someone to please him. He loves Ramadevi to please her. He is ‘Swarata”.

SUMMARY: Always remember Pundareekaaksha Lord Sri Hari, who is wearing a glittering, silk loin cloth (Peetambara) the brightness of which is equal to the sparkle that may be seen at the time of rising of thousands of Suns; who is wearing jewels of nine diamonds and pearls and whose smiling face is like the full moon.

This expression is like reiteration of a stanza in Bhagavata:

SUMMARY: Neither Mahalakshmi, nor the clever and eloquent four-faced Brahma nor can we, of thousand faces, count the number of all the qualities of Sri Hari. Yet, we can beautifully describe those qualities better than the description already provided by others.

Since the qualities and attributes of Lord Hari are infinite, it is not possible for any one at any point of time describe them, comprehensively.

Although ‘Vayam’ means ‘we’, in this context, it should be perceived as synonymous of Lord Shesha, who has thousand hoods.

Bhagavata describes:

SUMMARY: Be happy by always thinking of, worshipping and having the Darshan of the good forms of Lord Sri Hari, who is the God of all gods and demi-gods and the most capable God of doing anything and everything; being better and higher than Goddess Sri Lakshmi Devi, Sri Jagannatha Vitthala Sri Hari becomes intimate and with kindness, resolves the scaring elements of family or worldly life. He is everywhere in distinct forms and is most accomplished in converting even the insane into sane beings.

“Sreevara” means the consort of Sri Lakshmi and more powerful than Lakshmi Devi. He is loved by Sri Lakshmi.

Yogadeepika describes in great detail the need to think and worship the infinite forms and appearances of Lord Hari, including the 24 incarnations that are carved and created in the form of various idols and statues; five forms such as KraddhOlka; nine forms such as Vimala and others; five such as Vasudeva and others; four such as Vishwa and others; four of Atma (Soul) and others; fifty of Aja and others; one hundred of Narayana and others; one thousand of Vishwa and Vishnu and others; infinite like Ajita; and seventy-two thousand NaDi rUpas (Pulse forms).

SUMMARY: Anyone reciting or hearing the stanzas of this work that provides them with such heaps of Punya or Positive Energy that may accrue by performing Holy Sacrifices; they have been composed by Sri Vadiraja Yati, who had pure and clear mind in the Madhwa Shastra and they dwell upon the most sacred rivers, the greatness and supremacy of Achyuta or Sri Hari, his outstanding and mysterious acts and they have been said in a most attractive and touching manner.

The stanzas in Teerthaprabandha undisputedly relate to some of the most sacred rivers. The stanzas also narrate the greatness of some of the most-trodden, ancient and holy places. They describe the glories of Lord Hari.

By composing the Teerthaprabandha in simple, majestic and pleasing dictum, Sri Vadirajaru got his demerits, if any, cleared; he became pure and got unsuspicious, firm and unfaltering belief, faith, commitment, conviction and dedication towards Sri Madhwa Shastra.

The benefits of reading of the stanzas in Teerthaprabandha with devotion, conviction and dedication is comparable with the benefits that accrue by performing Ashwamedha and other Yajnas. Reader or listener of Teerthaprabandha will imbibe or receive all worldly wealth, pleasure and happiness.

Pilgrim or visit to holy places purifies the mind and body; similarly, reading, reciting or listening Teerthaprabandha purify the heart, mind and body; needless to mention, it paves the way to Moksha, Salvation, realisation of the ultimate truth. It develops high interest in Madhwa Shastra.

With these words, Sri Vadirajaru concludes Teerthaprabandha.

Sri Vadirajaru has concluded his Teerthaprabandha with the description of Anantapadmanabha, which is similar to “Santatam chintayE(s)nantamantakAlE vishEShataha” in Dwadasha Stotra of Sri Madhwacharyaru.

SUMMARY: If there were any such rule that there is no concept of illusion for the people living in that Vaikuntha, then the cluster of tiny houses of beautiful and cute birds adoring the lines of houses there could never be understood as being artificial.

This is a compliment to the artificial birds that were adoring the exterior of houses in Vaikuntha that they had been created in such a natural way that it was hard to guess that they were artificial.

VikaTA means great, beautiful.

It is also indicated in this stanza that for people in the heavens, there is no state as illusion or confusion.

SUMMARY: The garlands of multi-coloured beads suspended beneath the strange clothes that were hanging to the wooden beams in all places inside the houses in Vaikuntha are shining so much that it appears as though their brightness was protruding outside on the streets.

SUMMARY: Here, purest form of Sri Mahalakshmi is present in the invaluable diamond and gold complexion and an epitome of all materials; therefore, the expressions of the most spectacular things that appear to have been exaggerated by poets in their exemplary poems seem quite perfect and realistic.

With everything in Vaikuntha having the presence of Goddess Mahalakshmi, even the most exaggerated description of earthly items look ordinary here.

नगरैर्महापुरमसम्हतिमल्लसति प्रभॊरयमहॊ महिमा॥१४॥

SUMMARY: Although inhabited by innumerable people who have attained salvation since time immemorial, including the past Brahmas and others, and still people getting into this land, Vaikuntha has never become short of space or congested; it is still sprawling and shining as wide and sparsely populated as ever. It is nothing but the mystic powers of Lord Sri Hari! Isn’t it?

Vaikuntha has been described Sri Vadirajaru in his “Vaikuntha Varnane”; Sri Mohanadasaru, Sri Purandaradasaru, Sri Vijayadasaru and many other Haridasas have described Vaikuntha in inimitable fashion and in great and grand detail.

The word “Shambhu” used in this stanza may outwardly mean only Lord Shiva. However,Sri Madbhagavata mentions “VaiShNavAnAm yaThA ShamBhuhu” whereby the word Shambhu refers to both Brahma and Rudra as both attain salvation and enter Vaikuntha.

In his Mahabharata Tatparya Nirnaya, Sri Madhwacharyaru states:

AnAdikAlataha pratikalpam muktA BrahmashEShagarDAdijeevagaNA anantAstatra santi|TE pruThak nagarANi santi|

अनादिकालतह् प्रतिकल्पं मुक्ता ब्रह्मशॆषगरुडादिजीवगणा अनन्तास्तत्र सन्ति। तॆषां पृथक् नगराणि सन्ति।

Demi-Gods such as Lord Brahma, ShESha, Garuda and others, (including Rudra) attain salvation after their term or Kalpa expires and they live in Vaikuntha in separate Townships or Cities. This has been happening from time immemorial. Inspite of the fact that gods, goddesses, human beings etc., keep attaining salvation, based on their good Karmas, Vaikuntha never turns out to be congested, over populated. The Pushpaka Vimana that Ravana had confiscated from Kubera could accommodate any number of people. It is said to be expanding and accommodating everyone without any inconvenience or inadequacy. If a celestial plane can boast of such elasticity, the state of Vaikuntha can seldom be exaggerated.
