SUMMARY: Sri Poornaprajnaru, who was like Aditya, was appearing more radiant with the twelve symbols such as the Disc and Conch called Oordhwapundra, was an uncontrollable terror to antagonists of Lord Hari, shone like another apocalypse or Armageddon or the Great Deluge.

It is customary to wear twelve symbols with Gopi Chandan on the body, immediately after having bath. Gopi Chandan is said to be a kind of soil dust on which the Gopikas, the female devotees of Lord Krishna, danced to please him. Sri Madhwaru was wearing those twelve Oordhwapundras and each of them shone like separate Aditya. Together, they appeared like Dwadasha Adityas.

According to Smrutis, during the Great Deluge, all the twelve Suns rise together; since it is a part of the final destruction, the period would be very unpleasant for Tamoyogyas or those with Tamas Gunas.

Scriptures state that wearing Oordhwapundra provides radiation that is reminiscent of the Sun. They create fear in the heart of enemies.

SUMMARY: The people who had gathered there and saw the naturally charming, stately stature of Sri Poornaprajnaru, and his face that was like Full Moon, used to lift their two hands in salutation posture and hurriedly disperse to sideways as soon as he walked out, much before his disciples could announce aloud “leave way”, “leave the path”.

The people respected Sri Madhwacharyaru so much that there was no need for anyone to tell them to walk sideways and make way for him to walk through. It was a voluntary reverence that the stature of Sri Madhwaru was commanding.

SUMMARY: With the group of people collecting and spraying all the water that had fallen on the Earth after washing the lotus feet of Sri Madhwacharyaru, Goddess Earth was slightly dissatisfied but somehow tolerated it. Otherwise, how would she be considered or called synonymous of “Pardoning” (KShamA dharitree)?

It is indicated in this stanza that people were not leaving even a drop of water on the earth after washing the feet of Sri Madhwaru. They used to wear it on their head. Goddess Earth was upset with the fact that not a drop was left for her to wear. However, she tolerated it after seeing the reverence, devotion and compassion people had for Sri Madhwaru.

Goddess Earth is known as “Kshama” because she pardons people who do all sorts of unpleasant things on her and throw waste on her. If she were not so tolerant, then the wrath she could show would be highly destructive to people.

SUMMARY: Sri Hari, who is the addressee of all the letters in the word ShaNNavati, an ocean of kindness, Lord BrahmaNya and the Ship in the Bhavasagara or the ocean of worldly life, gets called as Shannavati, accepts the good deeds of his people who submit them with good devotion and protects them in a variety of ways.

The syllables in the word SHANNAVATI: Sha represents complete with six gunas or characters (ShaDguNa); Na represents Anandapoorna or an embodiment of bliss or happiness; Va represents one who deserves to be described; Ti represents caretaker of life.

Bhava means family or worldly life and abdhi means ocean; pOta means the ship. This explanation is more elaborately given in PaitrukasuLAdi of Sri Vijayadasaru as well as Bhagavata (11/5/33).

SUMMARY: Does Sri Hari, who provides the being with body, not provide the food they like? He is worshipped by the Gods and deities; His history is full of good, welfare stories; He is complete with good qualities; he always gives worldly and out-worldly pleasures; bearing the mountain on his back, he fed Brahma and other deities with the Elixir and killed the unpleasant demons.

The primary message of this stanza is that Lord Hari gives all the beings their deserved bodies and never fails to create food for them.

Bearing the mountain on back refers to the Koorma or the Tortoise Avatar of Sri Vishnu. He incarnated as a giant tortoise to wear the Mount Meru on the back to facilitate its churning for Elixir or Amrit.

SUMMARY: Sri Vasudeva, the Master Magician or Mayapati, who is worshipped by Lord Vayu, gets the word “swAhA” pronounced that indicates that he is himself consuming everything that is offered in all types of rituals but transfers them all to Brahma and other deities, always, and gives them complete satisfaction. The most pleasant Lord Sri Hari, provides food to ancestors (Pitrus, which is expanded as MatA cha pitarau meaning the entire cluster of parents and grandparents) in his form known as Sankarshana, whenever the word “swadha” is pronounced. In the words such as Vruksha or tree, Phala or fruits and Truna or grass, the Lord exists in the form of Pradyumna, Aniruddha and others.

SUMMARY: Like the group of Munis or ascetics, that waterbody with purest and most friendly water, at first got the presence of the shadow of Sri Madhwacharyaru and later, during his bathing, the waters got the real, crystla-clear human form of Sri Madhwacharyaru, which was the beloved of the righteous and virtuous.

Even though this happens to be an imaginative comparitive used as a similie, the symbolic meaning is that the ascetics first secure the Paroksha Jnana, which means the knowledge of whatever is visible. Paroksha means reliable, visible and perfect appearance.

SUMMARY: Beholding the conch for the shining disc-borne Shalagrama stones, Sri Madhwacharyaru was anointing the Shalagramas; when he was anointing the Shalagramas, his good reflections that were appearing in the Shalagramas made them dazzle with the forms of Sri Hari, the beloved of Conch Panchajanya.

This stanza conveys the message that when Sri Madhwacaharyaru was anointing the Shalagramas, Lord Sri Hari was specially present in the Shalagramas and because of his special presence in the Shalagramas, which were dull, pale and gloomy. to begin with.

SUMMARY: Sri Poornaprajnaru consumed the Padodaka of Vishnu, which is described clearly by great Munis or ascetics that the consumption of Vishnu Padodaka is greater than having bath in the Holy Ganga and is equal to the benefits of observing fast for twelve years in the spiritually prescribed  manner.

The Padodaka is also known as Nirmalya Teertha. Consuption of Nirmalya Teertha is greater than having bath in Ganga, the holy river from heavens and is as beneficial as observing fast for twelve years as a Vrat and in the prescribed manner.

SUMMARY: Those who worship Sri Hari, who has Garuda as his vehicle, remembering Sri Janardana, who is within Lord Brahma, who rides on the Swan, and other dieties in three forms known as Amshi, Amsha and Antargata, will lead successful lives.

The main point indicated in this stanza is that Sri Janardhana is the form of Sri Hari and Sri Hari receives the offerings of Shraddha or ceremony in the form of Janardhana. Smruthis clearly state: “ShrAddhakAlE JanArdhana”

“Na jAyatE yeeyati cha samsAramiti JanArdanaha|

TathA hi babhravyashAkhAyAm – ‘sa bhUyaha sa janArdanaha’ iti||

“Samshaya” means “Samyak shEtE asmin”, which means the body.

SUMMARY: Sri Rama, who killed demon Khara, ensures that the performance of annual death ceremony that the knowledgeable perform does not face any trouble, in his form known as Janardana, getting called in their respective names and in three thousand five hundred and fifty-five forms.

Lord Sri Hari, in his form known as Janardana, ensures that those peforming the death anniversary of the dead parents, grandparents, in-laws, relatives, friends etc., with dedication, devotion and conviction, do not face hassels in performing it.

KharAri means one who killed demon Khara, who was Srirama. It also means ‘enemy of Khara’.

It may be recalled that Srirama protected the Sacrifice from the disturbance of Mareecha, Subahu and Tataka; the sacrifice was performed by Sage Vishwamitra. Similarly, Lord Rama, in his form as Janaradana, protects the sacrifices or rituals involved in death anniversary.

It is also worth remembering that when Bharata came to the forest to take Srirama back to Ayodhya, the latter was informed by Bharata that their father Dasharatha had ended his earthly life due to the nostalgia caused by the departure of Srirama from Ayodhya. Immediately, Srirama pays obeisance to Dasharatha on the opposite banks of Phalgu River, setting an example to the entire humanity that obeisance and performance of anniversary are very important. There is a place known as Ramagaya, near Vishnugaya in Gaya, bearing testimony to this incident.

SUMMARY: Prayers should be offered to Lord Hari in this manner: “Glory to Snakarshana, the beloved of Jaya; victory to Dattatreya, Aitareya, who was Mahidasa; victory to Hayavadana, Hari, Hamsa; you love your devotees; you are the ancient person; the solid shape of all knowledge; you are extraordinary in all the three worlds; you are the shelter of all worlds; you are without any blemish; be kind enough to take care of us”.

This is the prayer to be offered to Lord Janardana during Pitru Yajna or Shraddha or death anniversary.
