Shrimathe RamanujAya namaha| In continuation with the previous mail on Sriman Narayanan as Paramathma, adiyEn would like to throw more light on that based on the NambAduvAn vaibhavam which is well explained in Kaisika Puranam. Dear Bhagavathas, NambAduvAn was a devotee of Thiru-k-kurungudi emperumAn. During every ekAdasi, he used to go up to temple and hymns some pasuram, performs mangalAsasanam to emperuman and will return to his house happily. One day when he was on the way to temple, caught up by a brahmarakshasu (an evil soul) and it told him that, it wants him as food. NambAduvAn said that, he will come back after reciting some pasurams ( NambAduvAn sings using Kaisika Pann), then it can took him as food. But brahmarakshasu was not in a position to leave NambAduvAn, because it felts that he may escape. Hence NambAduvAn started promising to brahmarakshasu that, if he didnt turned back after completing mangalAsAsanam to emperuman he may became that, or he may get the pApam like that, etc.., etc.,, On hearing all those, still brahmarakshasu was not in a position to leave nambAduvAn to perform mangalAsAsanam to emperumAn. Now, NambAduvAn promised that, "IF ANYONE SAYS THAT LORD SRIMAN NARAYANAN IS EQUIVALENT TO, or ON PAR WITH, or INFERIOR TO SOMEONE ELSE, then WHAT THE PAAPAM and NARAKAM( hell) that HE WILL GET, I WILL ALSO GET THE SAME, if i dont returned back to you" Once on hearing this, the brahmarakshasu IMMEDIATELY released the hands of NambAduvAN and said that, "IN THIS LOKAM, THERE IS NO SIN GREATER THAN THIS!" >From the above NambAduvAn vaibhavam (Kaisika Puranam, which still takes place in thiru-k-kurungudi divya desam every year during Kaisika ekadasi festival), it's clear that EVEN BRAHMARAKSHASU knows that Lord Sriman Narayanan is paramAtma, paramporul. There is no one who is on par with, or equivalent or superior than HIM!! NOW ITS THE QUESTION OF WHETHER, HOW MUCH WE UNDERSTOOD AND BELIEVE THAT HE IS PARAMATMA !!! adiyEn, senthil. Note: The next day after Kaisika ekAdasi day, early morning Namperumal (Sri Rangam) will enter into santanu mandapam with Karpoora PadiyEtra sEvai which is coming very shortly this year. __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
