SrI:

Dear SrI VaradarAja BhakthAs :

Today , we will continue with the study of the ninth
and the tenth Paasurams of the Desika   Prabhandham
entitled , "Charama SlOka Churukku".

323. The Meaning of the Sabdham : " Sarva PaapEpyO "
*******************************************
KaadukaLO narahO kadithAm karaLat-tiraLO
Soodu vidA analO tolayA nilai naLLiruLO
SaaDu padac-charaNAl  anRu Saadiya SaarathiyAr
veedu seyvitthu namai viduvikkinRa paavangaLE

(Meaning): There are two words here : Sarva and Paapam .
Taking the latter first , Paapams are those to be understood
with the help of SaasthrAs and as those causing ill effects ( Theengu
viLavikka SaadhanamAi iruppavai). The PuNya karmAs , which will
yield non-lasting sukhams like Svargam for one who desires MOksham,
are also included in the Paapa sabdham . Once Svarga anubhavam is
over , the jeevan has to come back to samsAram and therefore it is
not desirable for a Mumukshu . The PuNyams and Paapams are
considered as the golden and iron handcuffs/fetters  for one who desires
Moksham and hence have to be destroyed utterly . For a Mumukshu ,
Svargam and Narakam are one and the same. Therefore , GeethAchAryan
uses the plural term of "PaapEpya: " . The immensity of the assembly of
"Paapams " are also hinted throught he use of the Plural term.

The Sarva Sabdham covers the Paapams to be accumulated from
the above karmAs as well : (1) Avidhyai: This is the kAraNam and
Kaaryam for Avidhyai. The path to reach BhagavAn is blocked by
Avidhyai and Karma is generated .That Karma generates additional
avidhyai and they feed each other cyclically and grow gigantically with time
.
(2) the Karma vaasanai arising from the enjoyment of worldly
pleasures (3) the continued  desire for those pleasures
(4) The Jeevan's sambhandham with prakruthi until the jeevan
is seperated from the gross ( SthUlam ) and subtle (Sookshmam)
Sareeram (5) All paapams accumulated before the anushtAnam of
Prapatthi , after Prapatthi et al.

Swamy Desikan states that the Lord will kick away all these Paapams
of Prapannan just like the infant KrishNa kicked and destroyed SakatAsuran ,
who came in the form of a wheel to kill Baala KrishNan resting in His cradle
.

The Paapams are described as the dense forest ( KaadukaL) ,
Narakam , Visham , scorching Agni and the dark night . Paapams are
like dense forest since it is difficult to look for them as finding the path
in
a dense , overgrown forest . Since Paapams produce unbearable
sufferings , they are called as Narakams . Since these Paapams grow
inside and act as poisonous cancer , they are compared to Visham .
Since the very same Paapams scorch us as samsAric afflictions,
they are related to Agni.The Paapams hide the Svaroopam of
the Jeevan and hence they are compared to the dark night in
this Paasuram dealing with all kinds of Paapams( Sarva Paapam).

324. The Meaning of " MokshayishyAmi "
********************************
senRu uyar vaann amarnthu avvadiyArudan sErnthidavE
inRu yenil inRu , nALai yenil nALai , inic-cheRinthu
ninRa nilai ninn anaitthu vinayum ninn vittahalak-
kanRi viduppan yenRAn karutthAl namaik-kAtthidumE

(Meaning): The Lord states here that He will release the Prapanna
Jeevan from SamsAra bhandham and make him a Muktha Jeevan as
and when that Jeevan wants ( Boons of Dhruptha and AarTa Prapatthi ).
The Lord says: " Oh Prapanna Jeevan ! I will destroy all of your karmAs
the moment you desire to join with NithyAs ( the eternally liberated ) and
the MukthAs ( the liberated Jeevans) to perform Kaimkaryam for Me
at My Supreme Abode (SrI Vaikuntam).
