The commentary of Vaikunta Vaasi Sri UtthamUr Swamy is being used by Srimath Azhagiya Singar as the source text . Rest of it is the unparalleled rasAnubhavam of Swamy Desikan's Sri Sookthi by Srimath Azhagiya Singar . adiyEn seeks aparAdha KshAmaNam rrom asmath AchAryan for mistakes in my coverage due to my mandha mathi. Aarambham ************** RaajA : Oh dear one , who speaks without deciet ( Visuddha bhAshiNi )! Please listen to this brief summary ( SookshmArTa Sangraha: ). SlOkam 76: Madha-matsara-maanamaya: pumAn Bahu-pisAsa-gruheetha ivArbhaga : nigama siddha narEndhra nireekshayaa nipuNapaddhathim abhyavapadhyathE (Meaning): Purushan is like a child possessed by the many goblins ( PisaasukaL) with the names of desire (raagam ) , hate ( dhvEsham ) , haughtiness (garvam) et al . He arrives in that sad state at the city known as Vedham , where Sarva JeevEswaran resides and presides . This Supreme Lord is a great Vaidhyan ( Doctor) . When SarvEswaran's glances fall on this Purushan ( Jeevan) , then the Jeevan will be rid off the tormenting goblins and return to the sampradhAyic path . Here the Jeevan is compared to " Bahu PisAsa gruheetha arbhakan ". The Lord is saluted as " Nigama siddha NarEndhran" . The SaasthrEic way (raaja Maargam and not otthai paathai) is decribed as "nipuNa paddhathi ". SlOkam 77: The next slOkam covers the happening after the JaayamAna KaDAksham of the Lord falls on the struggling Jeevan : anaga-dEsika-dhrushti-sudhAplavE vidhivasAth upasEdhishu dEhina: vimala-BhOdha-mukhA vividhA guNA: pariNamanthy apavarga-dasAnkuraa: (meaning ): When the KaruNA katAksham falls on the Jeevan , then it gets drenched in the nectar of Dayaa of the faultless AchAryan and the sprouts for Moksham like blemishless Jn~Anam , control of Indhriyams , sprout forth . Here AchArya KatAksham is equated to that of the rejuvenatiing power of nectar. These AchAryAs are totally devoid of any defects ( anaga DesikA: ). They possess vimala Jn~Anam ( BhOdha mukhA: ). SudhA plavam refers to bathing ( Thirumanjanam ) in nectar. This AchArya Sambhandham happens due to the BhAgyam of Iswara anugraham ( vidhivasAdhupasEdhishi) . Then the various auspicious attributes (Vividha GuNA: ) in preparation for travel on the Raaja Maargam of Moksham sprout (apavarga dasAnkurA: pariNamathy). Previous slOkam covered the situation before AchArya PrApthi; this slOkam describes the situation of those who have been blessed with AchArya anugraham to perform upAya anushtAnam ( Prapatthi/ Bhakthi yOgam ). In the next slokam ( 78th) , the focus is on upAya siddhi from the completion of the anushtAnam . SlOkam 78: svAdheenEtarapaatha bheethi parushasvar-vaasa dhurvAsanaa- paasA-karshaNa-yanthraNAbhirabhitha: kshipthAthmana: KshEthriNa: nishprathyUha-vijrumbhamANa-karuNA dhughdhArNavE nirbharA: bhakthi: sEthsyathi bhAgadEya-vasatha: PRAAPYE PARABRAHMANI (Meaning ): On reaching Svargam due to PuNyams , the Jeevan develops the fear that it will fall down to samsAra lOkam at the end of spending its puNyams . That is the horror of finiteness of Svarga vaasam . KsheeNE puNyE adhO gathi ( Downward descent at the end of the using up of accumulated PuNyams). Eihikia phalams lead to Svargam. There he enjoys the bhOgams . Now the fear (bheethi) takes over about losing them (bhOgams) at the end of expending the puNyams and knows that he has no control (asvaadheenam) over the consequent descent to SamsAram . Various ropes of Vaasanais ( residual effects of karmAs) pull the jeevan (dhurvAsanaa paasAkarshaNam) hither and thither. He struggles valiantly . He is helpless and befuddled . At this time of distress , due to bhAgya visEsham of AchArya anugraham and the uninterrupted flow of the nectarine dayaa of AchAryan generates bhakthi to Parabrahmam (Bhakthi yOgam sprouts) . For these Bhakthi yOga nishtAs , the next happening is the performance of the Yaagam of Aathma SamarpaNam at the sacred feet of the Lord . AchArya KaruNA is equated here to " NishprathyUha vijrumbhamANa KaruNaa " ( Tadai illAthu surakkum karuNai) . The jeevan that is immersed in that milky ocean ( dhugdhArNavam) due to bhAgyam is equated to one without any burden ( nibharaa: ) due to leaving the burden of protection to the Lord . Bhagavath anugraham, achArya Sambhandham , generation of Bhagavath Bhakthi and finally aathma samarpaNam are the stages of progress of the bhAgyasAli Jeevan .
