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 6.10.4 aavaa vennaa thulagaththai alaikkum asurar vaaNaaLmEl, theevaay vaaLi mazhaipozhindha silaiyaa! thirumaa magaLkELvaa, thEvaa surargaL munikkaNangaL virumpum thiruvENG kadaththaanE, poovaar kazhalkaL aruvinaiyEn porundhu maaRu puNaraayE. 6.10.4 4.Without taking pity on the world, (and its people), the asurAs attack the world and kill its people mercilessly. To such cruel asurAs, You shower on them the rain of fiery arrows and destroy their lives completely! Oh valorous Lord, the One who has the Divine Bow in Your Hand (Saarngham)! Oh Master of Periya Piraatti, MahAlakshmI! Devaadhi DevA! The One desired even by Rishis and DevAs! The One who is at ThiruvEnkadam! Srinivaasaa! You should gracefully bless me to join Your Lotus Feet completely and uninterruptedly. ThirumaamagaL kELvaa- LakshmI nAthA! Master of MahalakshmI. Thiruvukkum Thiruvaagiya selvaa.. ?says Thirumangai AzhwAr. Thus He is Sri Nivaasan. PiraaTTi is thus referred as His divine Consort. Alandhar in his chathuslokI addresses MahalakshmI as BhagawathI. hEy bhagawathI! As Chief of Sarva BhutAs, You enjoy an equal status and rules the physical and the transcendental universe. You possesses like Your Lord, Svarupam , Rupam, GuNam and Vibhavam equally in its entirety. You share in equal measure the six auspicious GuNAs of Her consort (BhagavAn)- namely JnAnam, Bhalam, Sakthi, Iswaryam, Veeryam and ThEjas. That is why You are known as Bhagavathi or ShAtgunya SampoorNai. You are inseparable from Your Lord at all times and states (nithya anapAyini- never leave Him ever. Thus with such equal qualities, You have chosen Him as Your darling Lord and He has You as His divine Consort? He is PurshOtthaman and You are BhagavathI.. With all sentient and non ?sentient with His Sareera and attributes, are You the qualifying one for Him as His pathnI- I pondered. I have found that all such vivhUthis (attreibuites- of Chethana, achEthanas- devas, humans, plants, cosmic matter, etc.. etc..) are all Yours as well and You rule them in equal manner. You are with Him at all times uninterruptedly. Since You became His spouse, You are now enjoying the same- some may argue. That argument holds good for bhUmA and nILA dEvi and not for You.. SaasthrAs say that You both are SEshi for the whole world.. You possess the six guNAs that constitute Bhagavathvam. Chauthumukha brahmA, Rudra et al along with their spouses serve You and are Your servants. Coming to think of it, You alone have the name SrI. and He gets His identity as Sriya: Pathi.. In addition to all these qualities, You have the recommendation role as well (Purushakaram) and also point to Him His daya and protection role. You intercede with Your Lord on behalf of us ? when we perform our surrender to You and Him as Dhivya Dampathi and recommend that we be forgiven by Your Lord to become the object of His grace. Thus AzhwAr in order to achieve the praapya- says that (1) The Lord should remove the obstacles and hurdles; (2) He should enter into his [aazhwAr?s mind] and (3) his beauty should conquer over the material world and make him His daasa bhUtha and He should do paripoorNa anugraham by showing Himself as Lord ThiruvEnkatanAthan- Sriya: Pathi Sri Srinivaasan.
