SrI :

SlOkam 76
************
ThvAm sEvithum jalaja chakra gadhAasi saarngai:
     thArkshyENa sainyapatinAanucharais-taTAnyai:
dEvyA SriyA saha lasantham ananathabhOgE
     bhunjeeya saanjalir-asankuchithAkshi pakshmA

(Meaning ) : Oh Bhagavann ! May adiyEn be blessed with the soubhAgyam
of enjoying Your darsanam with my hands folded in reverence and unclosed 
eyes ,
while You are recieving the kaimkaryam from Your aayudhams-- Conch ,
Disc , Mace , Sword , bow -- and nithya Sooris ( VishvaksEnar , Garudan
et al) ? May adiyEn have the good fortune to have the darsana soubhAgyam of
Yourself being seated on Your bed of AadhisEshan with Your divine consort ,
MahA Lakshmi ?

(Commentary ) : SrI PaancharAthra Saasthrams describe the SEvai of
Sri Vaikunta NaaTan at His supreme abode with His weapons , aabharaNams ,
Parijanams ( MukthAs and Nithya Sooris) and His DEvis .This slOkam
visualizes that dhivya darsanam .

SlOkam 77
*************
kaimkarya nithya nirathai: bhavadhEka-bhOgai:
     nithyairanukshaNa naveena rasArdhra bhAvai:
nithyAbhivAnchitha paraspara neecha-bhAvai:
    maddhaivathai: parijanaistava sangaseeya

(Meaning) : Oh Bhagavann! May adiyEn be blessed to be always
in the auspicous sath sangam of Your BhAgavathAs /nithya Sooris ,
who are forever engaged in performing kaimkaryam to You ; their
minds are softened through the ceaseless love for You ; they wish to be
the servants of each other in their role as Your BhAgavathAs ; they
sustain themselves by invoking You as their Kula dhaivam . May adiyEn
be blessed to live in the company of these dear parijanams and AchAryAs
of Yours forever !

(Commentary) : In our darsanam , Bhagavatha sEshathvam ( being the servants
of BhAgavathAs ) is more important than even serving the Lord (Bhagavath
Kaimkaryam). This slOkam was blessed to us by KurEsar to remind us of
this tatthvam . AzhwAr's support for this tradition is seen in : " Tala 
sayanatthu
uRaivARaik-koNDAdum nenjudayAr YengaL Kula dhaivamE " . Swamy Desikan
has elaborated on this topic in the PurushArTakAshtAdhikAram of SrImath
Rahasya Thraya Saaram . Even in the state of Mukthi (at Sri Vaikuntam) ,
Nithya Sooris , MukthAs and our  PoorvAchAryAs stay as mutual servants of
each other in a state of Bhagavatha sEshathvam .

SlOkam 78
************
yath kinjidhujjvalamidham yadhupAkhyayAaahu:
    soundharyam ruddhirithi yannmahimAmsalEsa:
naamnaiva yaam sriyamusanthy yadheeyadhAma
    ThvAmAmananthy , yathamaa yathamAna Siddhi:

(Meaning ) : Oh Bhagavann! May adiyEn be granted the boon of
becoming the bonded servant of Yourself and Your divine consort ,
who lends Her name of "Sri " to all radiant objects in this world ; She
is behind all beauty and wealth through a tiny portion of Her glory ;
She has taken on the name of "SrI " because of Her unparalleled
auspiciousness ; She has chosen Your chest as Her permanent abode
and She is the Mother of the Universe ; She shines as Mosha Lakshmi
( the ultimate phalan of Yoga siddhi) !

(Commentary ) : We recognize all auspicious things in the universe as
LakshmIkaram . When Her glance does not fall on them , they lose
their Lakshmikaram . Sri BhAshyakArar celebrated her Mahimai
as : " anavadhika mahimaa Mahishee ". She has every Iswaryam that
Her Lord has . She destroys all sins like Her Lord ( " vEri MaaRAtha
PoomEl iruppAL vinai theerkkumE ". The other quotations for Her
incomparable mahimai are denoted by Her sacred names : " Vimukthi
Phala dhAyini , Sarva kaama pradhA , SamsArArNava TaariNee ,
SarvArthi Samudhra ParisOshinee " . Here , She is saluted as the grantor of
Moksham , fulfiller of all desires , One who gets us across the ocean of
SamsAram and as the One who dries up the ocean of all miseries .

SlOkam 79
*************
yaa vai thvayAapyudhadhi manTana yathna labhyA
     yaa antharhitEthi jadhunmaTaOdhyathOabhU:
yaa cha prathikshaNam apoorvarasAnuBandhai:
     bhAvai: bhavantham abhinandhayathE sadhaiva

(Meaning) : May adiyEn be blessed with the soubhAgyam of
serving Your divine consort , who was attained by You through
Your efforts to churn the Milky ocean ; She started You on that effort
through Her act of disappearance from Sri Vaikuntam and She enhances
Your love for Her with Her many playful relationships with You
in an ever delectable manner !

(Commentary ) : The churning of the Milky Ocean was done by the Lord to
gain MahA Lakshmi ( "ViNNavar amudhuNa , amudhil varum PeNNamudhuNDa
EmperumAnE" - -Thirumangai AzhwAr about ThiruviNNagarappan ). That She
enhances His love for Her through many rasa bhAvams is revealed by :
" apoorvavadh vismayamAdhadhAnayA , guNEna roopENa vilAsa chEshtithai:
SadhA tavaivOchithayA Tava SriyA " . Her palyful acts are never the same
(apooravm) , produce wonders ( vismayam aadhadhAnaa) ; these playful
acts ( VilAsa cheshtais)  match exactly  with Her Lord's roopam and guNam .

SlOkam 80
************
roopAsriyA guNaganar-vibhavEna dhAmnA
    bhAvairudhAra madhurai:chathurai: charithrai:
nithyam tavaiva sadhruseem sriyam Iswareem thAmm
    ThvAm chAnjitha: paricharEyam udheerNa bhAva:

(Meaning) : Oh Bhagavann ! Please bless adiyEn with the soubhAgyam
of performing blemishless  kaimkaryam to You and to Your dear consort ,
who matches You in every one of Your anantha kalyANa guNams ,
ThirumEni soundharyam , VisEsha avathAra mahimai , Supreme tEjas
and ceaseless generosity and compassionate thoughts towards
our KshEmam .

(Commentary) : Swamy KurEsar has used three slOkams including this one
to praise the Mahimai of MahA L:akshmi as saluted earlier by Swamy
AlavanthAr , AchArya RaamAnuja , SrI Sookthi  , AzhwAr aruL vaakku
and Sri VishNu PurANam . He prayed for the bhAgyam of serving the Lord
along with His divine consort  , who matches Him in every aspect
( Tulya SeelA ) . KurEsar seems to  indicate that Kaimkaryam for PirAtti is
his aim and PerumAL Kaimkaryam is incidental to that Kaimkaryam
to MahA Lakshmi . She blesses us with worldly  Iswaryam , Moksham
and residence in Sri Vaikuntam ( Iswaryam akshara-gathim Paramam
padham vaa) . Vedam salutes the Divine consort of the Lord as :
" Iswareegum sarvabhUthAnAm asyEsaanaa JagathO VishNupathnee " .
KurEsar seems to suggest that his goal is Kaimkaryam to MahA Lakshmi
and seems to request Her dear Lord to be present at that time and accept
his Kaimkaryams  as a dhivya MiTunam (Divine Couple)  .
