SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika Mahadesikaya nama: Dearest All, In the sixth decad, Kulasekara AzhwAr assumes the role of different milk maids (Gopikas) and conveys the feeling of anger caused by the misbehaviour of Krishna with regard to his affairs with other Gopikas. In the words of Milkmaids, AzhwAr complains in this decad. AndAL the only female AzhwAr presents a unique type of mysticism (says Sri SMS Chari). Though she adopts the symbology of nayaka- nayaki bhaavam and relation to pour out her love to God-incarnate vibhava avathAram of Lord Krishna of Brindhavan, she being herself a bride, did not have to assume the guise of a consort (nayaki), as NammazhwAr and Thirumangai AzhwAr did. It came naturally to her. Further as her life history shows, she was God- intoxicated right from her infancy and developed a craving to marry only Lord Ranganathan, the deity of Srirangam. More of it later. I would like to thank Sri U Ve Venkat Kanumalla Swamin for his reference to Geetha Govindham while he referred to my earliest post. With Regards to today's episode of Lord Krishna's mischief growing proportionately with his age, Please enjoy the following by another BhAgavata, Sri Jayadeva in his immortal work Geeta-Govindam, with 24 Ashtapadis, describes almost similar feelings towards our Lord Sri karishna as: shlishhyati kaamapi chumbati kaamapi ramayati kaamapi raamaam | pashyati sasmita chaaru paraam aparaam anugacChati vaamaam | haririha - - - - kelipare || 4-7 Such frolicsome Krishna is even cleaving to someone, and even kissing someone, and even delighting someone, a delightful damsel, and paying his attention to another beaming and most beautiful damsel, and he is going in tow after one with her slanting glances, thus, that gleeful Krishna is now amidst a coterie of ravishing and coyly damsels, in a rapturous ronde? [a pa 4-7] Thanks to Venkat Swamin for his permission to share this with you all. Now let us enjoy Kulasekara AzhwAr?s nayaki bhaava verses? 4th verse of the sixth decad. thaaymulaip paali lamuthirukkath thavazhnthu thaLarn^atai yittussenRu pEymulai vaayvaitthu nancaiyuNdu piththanen REpiRa rEsan^inRaay aaymiku kaathalOdu yaaniruppa yaanvida vanthaven thoothiyOdE neemiku pOkatthai nan_kukanthaay athuvumun kOrampuk kERkumanRE 6.4 Though You had the most enjoyable mother?s breast milk available to You from Yasodha, your mother, You still sucked the poison smeared breasts of demon poothanai and sucked that milk along with her very life itself- thus being called as ?pitthan?
