SrI:
 
Dear Swamy Desika BhakthAs : Today we will cover
Sevan more Sahasra Naamams relating to Four more 
ChillaRai Rahasyams .
 
Chillarai RahasyangaL ( NaamAs 735-741)
******************************************************
(735)Sri Tatthva-navaneetha-preetha Hasthigiri-NaayakAya nama:
 
Salutations to the AchAryan , who delighted the Lord of  Hasthigiri
by the composition of the ChillaRai Grantham entitled Tatthva
Navaneetham .
 
"Sadh-sampradhAya dhadnatha: " is the reference in the moola grantham .
Swamy states that he churned the curd of Sath-sampradhAyam to create
the navaneetham of this chillaRai rahasyam . At the end of this rahasyam ,
Swamy Desikan dedicates this rahasyam for the pleasure of Lord 
VaradarAjan : "Varadha viracha Thvam " . This samarpaNam is echoed
in the " Preethi Hasthigiri NaayakAya " section of this nAmam . 
 
This is also a rahasyam for the benefit of those , who seek Moksham
( Mumukshu) by a clear understanding of the three rahasyams .  
 
(736) Rahasya-navaneethOkthi hrushta-VenkatanAyakAya nama:
 
Salutations to the AchAryan who blessed us with the ChillaRai
Rahasyam of "Rahasya Navaneetham " and through that Kaimkaryam
delighted ThiruvEngadamudayAn .
 
The name for this Sri Sookth(Navaneetham -new VeNNai) came from
the following slOkam at the end of this Sri Sookthi:
 
Guru-bhajana-nEthrabhAjA maTitha-rahsyEna VenkatEsEna
navaneethamiva gruheethan navakamidham nithyam aasvAdhyam
 
( Meaning) : The VedAnthAchAryan with the name of VenkatEsan used
the rope called AchArya Vandhanam to churn the curd named the three
rahsyams to realize this Rahasya Navaneetham , the new VeNNai .  
The nine topics housed in this ChillaRai Rahasyam is delectable 
for everyday enjoyment .
 
The dedication to Sri VenkatEsan is housed in another slOkam 
at the end , which starts with : " Prasamitha kali dhOshAm " and
ending up with prayer to SrinivAsan to bless us with and grow that 
Kaimkarya Sri :
 
" Srithajana BahumAnyaam SrEyasee VenkaDAdhrou
  Sriyamupachinu nithyam SrinivAsa ThvamEva " 
 
(737) Kaala tAmasa bhAvAdhi  niBhandhana vichArakAya nama:
 
(Meaning) Salutations to that AchAryan , who looked in to
the three kinds of Kaala tatthvam ( Saathvika , Raajasa and
Taamasa Kaalams) .
 
One may say that there is only one Kaala tatthvam and how can
one concieve three kinds of variations of that Kaalam . Swamy
Desikan answers this question in Tatthva Navaneetham .
 
(738) Bhagavath thrisTalAvAsa kriyA  vyAkruthi dakshiNAya nama:
 
(Meaning): Salutations to that AchAryan , who can comment on the three
places of permanent rsidence of the Lord .
 
In Tatthva Navaneetham , Swamy Desikan refers to the Lord having
three places of eternal residence ( Sri Vaikuntam , Milky Ocean and
inside the Soorya MaNDalam ) .
 
(739) YugabhEdhAdheena varNa Bhagavath dEha darsanAya nama: 
 
(Meaning): Salutations to that AchAryan , who knew and described
the four different colors that the Lord 's divine body has during
the four different yugams.
 
The Four VyUha Moorthys are : VaasudEvan , SankarshaNan ,
Pradhyumnan and Aniruddhan . In every one of the four contigous
yugams , the hue of the divine body of the VyUha Moorthys rotate .
 
For instance , VaasudEvan has white hue in Krutha Yugam , red in
TrEthA Yugam , Yellow in dhvApara yugam and Black in Kali Yugam .
 
SankarshaNA has red , yellow , Black and white hues in Krutha to Kali .
 
Pradhyumnan has Yellow , Black , White and Red in these four yugAs.
 
Aniruddhan has Black , White , Red and Yellow hues in these four yugAs .
 
Swamy Desikan elaborates on these specific hues revealed by the VyUha
Moorthys in each yugA following the AzhwAr's anubhavams in his Tatthva
Navaneetham .
 
(740) Tatthva MaathrukA hrushta Bhagavath-Bhaktha mAnasAya nama:
 
(Meaning): Salutations to the AchAryan , who delighted the minds of
Bhagavath-BhakthAs .
 
In Sanskrit , there are 51 letters from "A" to " Ksha" . These letters
(aksharams) are known as "MaathrukAs" . Since the Padhams  and
their PrayOgams are based on the stitching of the various combination
of the aksharams , these Maathurkais are the Moolam for the Saasthrams.
 
Swamy Desikan has distilled the SaasthrArTams in 51 Vaakyams
in this ChillaRai Rahasyam and hence it is called Tatthva Maathrukaa.
 
Towards the end of this chillaRai rahasyam , Swamy prays to the Bhagavath-
BhakthAs that he may be blessed to compose such Sri Sookthis that
would be the nectar for their ears ( Bhagavath-Bhaktha maanasa hrushtA ).
 
(741) Rahasya MaathrukA dhattha prapannAnvaha thOshakaaya nama :
 
(Meaning ) : Salutations to that AchAryan , who delighted the hearts of
Prapanna Janams through the Sri Sookthi of Rahasya Maathrukaa.
 
In a short set of 51 Vaakyams , Swamy Desikan housed the essence of
the three rahasyams and named it Rahasya Maathrukai . This chillaRai
Rahasyam is the Moolam (Maathrukai) for the meanings of the three
rahasyams  and hence it is named "Rahasya Maathrukai " .  
 
At the end of Rahasya Maathrukai , Swamy Desikan explains how
the PrapannAs derive maximum delight by reflecting upon the brief
summary of the three rahasyams in Fifty One Vaakyams :
 
Bhausruthai: iyam adhunA mithapriyai: anukramAth anudhina-bhOgalAlasai:
Ramaa-Pathou nihitha bharai: udheerithA rasAvahA bhavathy RahasyamAthrukA
 
(Meaning) : There are many aasthikAs , who have developed the correct
SampradhAya Jn~Anam through hearing about  the VedArthams many times .
They are the ones , who have completed their Prapatthi at the sacred feet of
the Divine Couple . They long to reflect upon the meanings of the Rahasyams
and enjoy them daily . At the same time , they want  to enjoy these meanings
in an abbreviated manner . Swamy says that these PrapannAs with such wishes
will gain maximum aanandham through this brief text of Rahasya Maathrukai .
