SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah: Dearest Srivaishnavas, The reason for which Alavandhar described the Lord so exhaustively along with PiraaTTi, His love for Her, Her compassion, Their paraphrenelia, and the greatest NityasUris, - now he comes out why? bhavanthamEvAnu charan nirantharam prasaantha nissEsha manOraThAnthara: kadha(S)aham aikAnthika nithya kimkara: praharshayishyaami sanaatha jeevitha: [46] when will I ever [be blessed to] crushing all other desires in my mind, with the only object in mind for serving at Your Feet alone as Your humble servant; uninterruptedly worship You and You alone and live with You eternally and delight You forever.. waiting on You alone; with all other worldly desires crushed from my mind with Your blessings; when will be ever be blessed to be Your eternal dAsda bhUthan, sEsha bhUthan ? Your servant; for You and You alone; exhilarate You and delight You forever and ever and live with You forever as my Lord.. whatever discrimination powers that You blessed me with; whatever detachment I develop; the mind runs amuck after worldly pleasures as long as I am in this world; Even if I detach the mind myself from one thing with vairAgyam, it goes and switches onto another. All such desires in my mind should vanish; get destroyed; In order to get the desires to do service at Your Feet, naturally the desires after the worldly objects need to go away. The sleep, the eating, and others would pursue me and keep me away from You and serving You; Please crush them. All those vaasanas do need to be gotten rid of from the roots; Then only can my mind think of You- Sriya: Pathi uninterruptedly.. Then only can I become kinkaran? asking You what shall and How shall I serve You? Kim karOmi? Kim karOmi and then will i become kainakaryaparan. That status would then persist and will never ever go away as You would have already blessed me with eternal association and being with You at Your Feet then. When I become such a kinkaran, then I would go and follow You wherever You go like iLayaperumAL (Lakshaman) and serve You uninterruptedly. Then, immediately my life would like that of a chaste wife who would be with the husband at all times serving Him. To make myself so in such a state, is not for me and for self interest. It is for Your pleasure and delight. I am Your humble servant at all times and it is my only duty to serve You and for Your pleasure. You are my master ? sEshi and it is the natural duty of myself being your eternal sEshan [servant]. For me- who is the sEshan- what else is required other than Your delight and pleasure? Thus Your enjoyment alone is my target and objective. But how can I do that here with my mind not being steady due to karma vasanaas? and my buddhi stumbles and falls over the material and worldly objects. There could be many days passing by without serving You at all; That would be against my essential nature of being your eternal servant and hence I would be failing in my duty thereby. Hence, PLEASE bless me the state of being your eternal servant and performing uninterrupted service NOW ? right now and it would be great. Though I am stamped as being your servant eternally as a jeevan- whose essential nature is to be Your servant and is? , the day has not yet come for serving You so due to my karma.. and am waiting for that day? Is it today? When is it?- asks Alavandhaar. Though I have performed Saranagathi (in 22nd verse), my state is like the wife who has not yet gone to husband?s place to serve him.. when is it?
