SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah: Dearest Srivaishnavas, Even though I am like that [as mentioned above], why do I still desire for mOksham now with my prapatti, some may get qualifications in due course.. I am sure I would never ever get? and though I know that, with such utter helplessness (aakinchanyam), and considering your dayA (compassion) alone as the reason and excuse, and having heard from pramaaNams that your dayA can save one from any danger, I have sought and asked You for that.. [With You as Parathvam, Your sowseelyam is praamaaNam for me..] aparaadha sahasra bhaajanam pathitham bheema bhavaarNavOdharE agathim saraNAgatham hare! krupayaa kEvalam aathma saathkuru..[48] me- who is the repository of innumerable thousands and thousands of follies (or blunders- or crimes committed); who has fallen into the deep, terrible samsaaric ocean of worldly existence; who has no qualification to perform any other means nor desire for any other object or materials or other fruits; and thus, who has performed the Saranagathi as the only means at Your Feet? Oh HarE! The One who alone is capable of destroying all [aparaadhams] paapams in one sweep! Thus, with only Your dayaa (compassion) Your grace alone- please enslave me and make me Your servant. Even if yugas, after yugas, if I perform and continue to perform praayschittham to undo the paapmas that I have so far committed, the paapams are so many in thousands and thousands that there could be no way that I can get them all cleared off. I am such a repository of all such millions of aparaadhams. [ahamasmi aparaadha chakravarrthi- says Swamy Desikan similarly in Dayaasathakam] Hence, I am completely and utterly helpless and have no chance of any other means like bhakti yoga. Even the swargas are like naraka to me and hence I do not desire for any other fruits. Thus, I have become agathi? wit no other means. Except You. But You can not save on Your own- I realised as You are impartial and have to be a balanced unbiased admistrator and the lord of all and thus expect a small excuse of some deed to save me? and You have also mentioned the same in saasthrAs? Hence I performed as that excuse the Saranagathi at Your feet (in 22nd verse). Thus with your dayaa alone as the means, I performed this prapatti. You should not hence look for any other means other than Your krupa (grace) alone? Please make Your slave (athmasaathkuru)? Here Alavdnahaar does not say [me- maam] as he does not wish to say even that with his mouth.. due to his aakinchanyam Alavandhaar ThiruvaDigaLE SaraNam Regards Namo narayana dasan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
