SrI:

Dear SrI Sudarsana BhakthAs:

Through these slOkams , SrI Koora NaarAyaNa Jeeyar pays 
additional tribute to the mighty Sudarsana JyOthi/Tejas.

SlOkam 8:
*********

dhrushtE adhivyOmachakrE vikacha

vihatayE bhanavO bhAsvaraa va:

SlOkam's Benediction:
**********************
"BhAnava: ahitha vihatayE gaDanthAm"

May the powerful rays(JwAlais) of Sudarsana
BhagavAn protect you by destroying your enemies!

Extended Meaning of the SlOkam :
*********************************

On one occasion , Sudarsana BhagavAn was seen
on the sky with His unique redish hue (from
His JwAlais) as a huge red semparutthi (JapA) 
pushpam .One of the nava grahams , Raahu , 
mistook that red object in the sky to be 
his natural enemy, Sooryan and travelled 
towards it.As he approached that red object , 
Raahu was burnt by the intensity of the heat
geenrated by the Sudarsana JwAlais and had to
make a hasty retreat. From then on , Raahu
was hesitant to approach Sooryan even during 
regular grahaNa kaalams since he is not sure
whether it is the real Sooryan or Sudarsanar.
Only after completing a deliberate evaluation 
of the nature of the object , he makes the move 
towards the real Sooryan. May that Sudarsana
BhagavAn's jwaalais more powerful than the rays
of Sooryan protect you all by destroying your
enemies ! 

Additional Notes:
******************
It is our experience to see the ChAyaa graham Raahu 
taking longer to cast its shadow on the Sun during
Soorya GrahaNam times. It is also true that 
the same Raahu takes much shorter time to envelop
Chandran during Chandra GrahaNam times.

The power of the JwAlais of Sudarsanar to burn 
opposing objects (enemies ) to ashes is referred to
in Sudarsana Kavacham passage:

"Jwaladh anila nibham , vahnimugrasTa peeDam 
prathyAleeDam ThrinEthram RIPU GANA DHAMANAM
bhAvayE ChakrarAjam ".

Besides His JwAlais, one of the eyes of Sudarsanar
is Agni . Bhagavaan Sudarsanar is not stationary 
waiting for the enemies to come near Him ; He chases them
and destroys them . His prathyAleeDam pose (mobility pose
with one foot forward) permits Him to jump in to action
rightaway.

SlOkam 9:
*********
dEvam hEmAdhritungam pruTu--
bhuja sikharam Bibratheem madhyadEsE
nAbhidhveepAbhirAmAmara vipinavatheem
sEsha seershAsanasTAm
nEmim paryAya bhUmim dinakara
kiraNA dhrushtaseema: pareethya
preethyai vascchakravAlAchala iva
vilasannasthu dhivyAsthra rasmi:

Benediction:
*************
" Dhivya rasmi: va: preethyai bhavathu"

May that Sudarsana JyOthi confer happiness 
on You always and be fro your preethi ! 

Extended Meaning of this slOkam :
**********************************
When one looks at the JwAlais surrounding 
the circumference of Chakra Raajan , that region
appears like the gigantic LokAlOka Parvatham (mountain),
which surrounds the Earth. There are areas in
these mountains , where Sunlight does not enter.
These LOkAlOkA mountains are also known as 
ChakravALA mountains.The limbs of Sudarsnar
known as arams (like spokes of a bicycle wheel)
are compared to the forests on the earth. 
The gigantic nEmi of Sudarsanar like ChakravALa
paravtham surrounding the earth creates darkness 
for the enemies and light for devotees. It has been 
indicated earlier that there are areas among this 
ChakravALa mountains , where Sun's rays do not enter
and therefore are forever dark. 

BhUmi has the Meru Mountain with a lofty peak.
Just as Meru mountain is at the center of 
the periphery of BhUmi,Lord Sudarsnar is at 
the epi center of His nEmi.His hands are like 
the peak of Meru mountain.His naabhi is the island.
The spokes (arams ) are the forest of that chakram. 

May that mighty Sudarsana JwAlais around His nEmi
resembling the gigantic LokAlOka parvatham surrounding
the Earth give happiness to you always!

Additional Notes:
******************
Meru mountain with its golden peak (hEmAdhri tungam)
positioned at the center of the Earth is compared to
the body of the golden hued Sudarsana BhagavAn at 
the center of the nEmi of the Sudarsana Yanthram 
(dEvam HemAdhri tungam madhya dEsE dhrushtam ).The Lord's
arms are compared to the tall peak of Meru mountain 
found on earth ( pruTu bhuja sikharam Bibratheem).
The naabhi of the Yanthram is the island seen in 
BhUmi ( Naabhi dhvipA).
