SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah: Dearest all, Let us continue to enjoy AzhwArs wonderful verses on ThiruvEnkatam. Today?s ThiruvEnkatam verse is: NammAzhwAr?s Thiruvaaymozhi 6.10.2. kooRaay neeRaay nilanaakik kotuval lasurar kulamellaam seeRaa eRiyum thirunNEmi valavaa! theyvak kOmaanE, sERaar sunaiththaa maraisendhee malarum thiruvENG kadaththaanE, aaRaa anpil adiyEnun adisEr vaNNam aruLaayE. 6.10.2 2.EmperumaanE, The Chief of NityasUris! You have the strongest Divine ChakrA in Your right Hand. What A strong resplendent shining ChakrA is that! It can cut the asurA groups into pieces and destroy them, and burn them to ashes. It shines so brightly with such ferocity and terrific rage. Oh BhagawaanE The One who has such a GREAT CHAKRA as Your weapon! ThiruvEnkadatthaanE! Your place Tirumala has Lotus flowers on the ponds like the beautiful lamps on the pond. You should bless me (adiyEn, who has devotion and love for You, Lord) to join You and reach Your Lotus Feet. Here AzhwAr looks at the lotus flowers in the pond [Swami pushkariNi] and they appear to AzhwAr as if they are lamps on the pond; He Himself is like forest of Lotus flowers. Like fresh bloomed lotus flowers, His eyes are; facial features are; palms and feet are. He is the master of Nithyasuris. AzhwAr pleads the Lord to bless him [AzhwAr] for uniting with His Feet. He prays for His pledge. Goptrutva varanam ? as one of five angas of Saranagati- i.e. Seeking the grace of Sriman Narayanan as the only hope for attaining the supreme goal is referred to here. You are standing in Tirumala for granting me the help pf joining Your Lotus Feet. It is indeed Parama praapya [Parama purushaarttham- Ultimate Goal] to perform ceaseless service at Paramapadham. But even the Nithyasuris who get such a chance always come here to thirumala to perform their service here and enjoy His dhivya mangaLa vigraha here. They not only consider Him at ThiruvEnkatam equal to Paramapadha nAthan; But even better as He is easily accessible for all including the mortals like us. Parathvam along with Sowseelya, Sowlabhya kaashtai is Lord Srinivasan. AzhwAr asks: when will I even be able to perform my service and enjoy His Lotus Feet?
