SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama: Dearest all, Let us continue to enjoy the acharyaâs glories. In our tradition, Acharya is equal to God if not more than Him. Next in our Acharya lineage is Senai Mudhaliarâ (nothing to do with mudhaliar sect prevalent today). This Mudhaliar means- the first one- Commander in chief. He is one of of Nithyasuris in Srivaikuntam. VISHWAKSENA: (aka Senai Mudaliar). He is said to have been born in the month Aippasi in the constellation of Pooradam. The lord first taught Periya Piraatti and she in turn taught Senai Mudaliar the esoteric meanings. The Slokas relating to Vishwaksena are as follows: Vandhe Vaikunta Senaanyam Devam Sootravthee Sakham | Yad Vetra Sikhara Spandhe Viswam Yetad Vyavasthitham || (meaning) Next Acharya is Vishwaksena also known as Senai Mudaliar. Staying in Vaikunta, he directs, controls and supervises the duties of all. He is the Commander-in-Chief of the Lord. He wields a whip in his hand. The entire Prapancha functions in the constant fear of the whip-end striking them, if they err. His wife is Sootravathi. He rules over the entire world by his command. I next bow to this Vishwaksena. Yasya Dvurita Vaktraadhyaa Parishadhyaah Parah Satham | Vignam Nignanthi Sathatham Vishwaksenam Upaasmahe || I worship the one by whose quick commands function the entire Universe right from the Nityasuris downwards, the one who always removes obstacles and impediments (in performing ones duties) - I bow to such a one â Vishwaksena. Acharya is the one who takes us out of samsaaric afflictions and lead us to redemption. onRE pukalenRu uNarnthavar kAtta thiruvaruLaal anRe adaikkalam koNda nam athigirith thirumAl inRe isaiyin iNaiyadi sErppar inip piRavOm nanRe varuvathu ellAm namakkup param onRu ilathE. The SadAcAryAs who are familiar with the relationship between artha pancakam and SareerAtma bhAvam instruct us that SrimAn nArayaNan alone is our refuge and place us at His sacred feet as protection. The Lord of Hastigirireadily and immediately accepts that burden of our protection. He joins the prapanna jeevan recommended by His AcAryans to His sacred feet. After that merciful act, we will never be born in this Prakruti MaNDalam. After He accepts our saranagati, all joys and sorrows that come our way during the post prapatti period are just anukUlams (beneficial developments). We will have no burden on our part to carry after the Bhara SamarpaNam to the Lord.
