"
(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 .
