SrI: Dear BhakthAs of Lord RanganAtha: adiyEn will continue with the 872nd to 874th Sahasra Naamams today, which will cover the 13th , 14th and the 15th chapters of Srimath Rahasya Thraya Saaram ( Krutha KruthyAdhvAnusandhAna , SvanishtAbhijn~Ana and Utthara KruthyAdhikArams ) . (872) (PraNavam) SahEthu krutha-kruthyathva anusandhaana visAradhAya nama: (Meaning ): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who had the knowledge and capabilities to observe the duties of krutha-kruthyan (One who has completed the anushtAnam of Prapatthi) along with the reasons for such observances . This nAmA is about the activities of one who has completed the Prapatthi anushtAnam as prescribed by the SaasthrAs and how he conducts himself and the reasons for such course of conduct . He has completed now the once-to-be peformed Prapatthi for Moksham . There is nothing else he has to do from here on to gain Moksham. Bhagavaan will take care of his anthima smruthi and Brahma Naadi pravEsam at the time of the falling of the body. Since Bhagavaan Himself has said "Maa Sucha " ( do not have any sorrow or fear ) , he stays in a state of freedom from fear. He has no doubts about Moksham and he does not seek any thing else , since the Lord has assured him "MokshayishyAmi". He recieves joy in contemplating over the anticipated Moksham and stays free of fear and worry. He continues with nithya- naimitthika karmAs since they are not UpAyams but PurushArTams. When performing these karmAs , if he has to invoke the names of ithara dEvathAs , which are subordinate to the Lord , he recognizes that their names also refer to the Lord ,who is their antharyAmi and empowerer. He does not acquire therefore any dhOshams. He performs Bhagavath-BhAgavatha-AchArya Kaimkaryams and stays like a Mukthan . This krutha kruthyan is the one , who regretted his lowly state before performing Prapatthi and has shifted his burden of protection to the Lord lives now without fear , sins or doubts . AzhwAr ( ThoNDaradippodi in Thirumalai) has decribed such krutha-kruthyAs as " kaampRattalai siraitthu , unn kadaittalai irunthu vaazhum sObhar ". All these topics are covered in Krutha KruthyAdhikAram , the 13th chapter of SRTS of Swamy Desikan summarized by this naamaa . 873) (PraNavam) Sva svarUpOpAya phala nishtaa-thraya vivEkavathE nama: (Meaning ) Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who understood the differences between the three nishtais ( Firmly understood state of Jn~Anams ) and recognized the acquisition of each of the three ( Svaroopa , UpAya and Phala nishtais) by him clearly . (Comments ) This Naamaa deals with the realization by prapannan about the maturation of his nishtais through the experience of the appearance of signicant recognizable lakshaNams. The Marks for Svaroopa Nishtai are: (1) Not to be perturbed , when others insult him (2) having compassion for the one , who acquires his sins (3) showing gratitude to those , who point out the prapannan's mistakes (4) no change of heart at people who insult him (5) feeling happy over the dimunition of his sins . The marks of UpAya nishtai : (1) thinking that SarvEswaran is the sole refuge (2) Meeting death as a welcome event (3) feeling consoled at times of crisis by believing that the Lord is the sole rakshakan (4) not seeking any other upAyam for Moksham after Bhara NyAsam . (5) Having the conviction that the good and the bad are Bhagavath sankalpam and responsibility . The Marks of Phala or PurushArTa nishtai are: (1) Enjoy the BhOgams coming in one's path , if they are permitted by the SaasthrAs (2) developing the ruchi for Bhagavath kaimkaryam and (3) impatience to gain Bhagavath anubhavam . All of these points are covered in the 14th chapter of SRTS ( SvanishtAbhijn~AdhikAram) . 874) (PraNavam ) Prapatthyutthara karthavya kruthya nirNaya kOvidhAya nama: (Meaning ): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who had the intellectual power to establish the duties of a Prapannan in the post-prapatthi period. (Comments) This Naamaa pertains to the 15th chapter of SRTS named Utthara kruthyAdhikAram . A Prapannan after Prapatthi can not lead an erratic life. He has to lead a virtous life that is a model for others to follow. He has to spend his time on earth after prapatthi in a manner consistent with his svaroopam as the Sesha BhUthan to the Lord at all times. The things to do are: (1) Gain clarity from AchArya UpadEsams to enhance the desire for Bhagavath anubhavam . (2) Get closer to ParamaikAnthis and emulate them to gain blemishless anushtAnams. (3)Avoid Bhaagavatha apachAram at any cost ; avoid insulting others or get giddy over the thought that his anushtAnam or Jn~Anam is superior to others . (4) Comfort oneself with gaining of knowledge about the Jn~Anam on the avathAra rahasyams of the Lord and feel repentent over previous times (before Prapatthi) for losing the wealth of Kaimkaryam to the Lord & His AchAryAs . (5) Control one's indhriyams and direct them in paths recommended by Bhagavath Saasthrams. (6) Enhance one's AchArya Bhakthi and anubhavam of ArchA Moorthys at dhivya dEsams and others. (7) Through Manas , Speech and body avoid things to be avoided ( free oneself from thoughts on Vishaya sukhams ,avoid Boasting and stay away from BhAgavata apachAram ) and engage in permitted activities ( Reflecting on the upakArams done by the AchAryan , repeatedly reciting dhvaya manhtram and engaging in Kaimkaryams to AchAryAs and BhAgavathAs).
