SrI:
Dear Sri HayagrIva BhakthAs
:
Let us study SrI HayagrIva
Panjaram today .
Sri HayagrIva
Panjaram is a delightful amalgam of (1)dhyAnam of the SubhAsraya
ThirumEni
Of
Lord HayagrIvan for IshtArTa siddhi ( gaining desired fruits ) ,
(2) Vandhanam /
namaskaraNam to Him and (3)the recitation of His embedded
manthram .
Panjaram means a cage as well
as the body . The cage here is " nikhila upanishad
maneeshA " panjaram . It is
a sacred cage constituted by the essence of the meanings
of
all Upanishads . Inside that
open cage resides the Lord , who is like " Suddha Spatika
MaNi bhUbhruth prathipaDam "
( like a blemishless white crytal mountain ) ; from there,
He illumines the three
worlds with His nectar-like white radiance ( SudhA sadhrIcheebhi:
dhyuthibhi: avadhAtha thribhuvanam) and banishes the darkness of ajn~Anam . From that " Veda mantra mayam cage
" , Lord HayagrIvan's Hala Hala sabdham is heard
echoing in
the limitless
vEdAnthams continously ( " ananthai: thrayyanthai:
anuvihitha
hEshA hala halam" ) .
This Panjaram of HayagrIvan (
HayagrIvasya Panjaram) pays tribute to
" the Mantramayam Sareeram "
of Lord
HyagrIvan saluted in the tenth
slOkam of Swamy Desikan's SrI
HayagrIva SthOthram :
agnou
samiddhArchishi sapthatanthO:
aatasTivAn manthramayam
SarIram
akhaNDa saarair
havishAm pradhAnai:
aapyAyanam vyOma sadhAm
vidhathsE
(Meaning): Oh Lord HayagrIva ! when
YajamAnAs present the sacred
havis in the Agni kuntams with sparkling
flames with seven tongues ,
You stand in the form of those manthrams
that they recite ( " aatasTivAn
manthramayam SarIram " )
and accept those havises . After
that ,
You distribute these sweet havis to
all the DevAs and make them
feel contented .
The First sentence of SrI
HayagrIva Panjaram
***********************************************************
" aTa kalpam pravakshyAmi
HaygrIvasya Panjaram "
Here the vakthrA ( speaker)
announces that he will now
commence describing the
Panjaram of Lord HayagrIvan .
Kalpa means a day
of Brahma or 420 million years of human
beings ; Kalpa also means a
sacred percept . The narrator
states that he will commence
delivery of the sacred percept of
Sri HyaagrIva Panjaram .
Kalpa also stands for the sacred Vedic
angam of Kalpa soothrams
.
VakshyAmi means I will
describe . When the prefix, "Pra" is added
to
vakshyAmi to become
"pravakshyAmi " , it means moving forward
(commencing) to describe
the Panjaram of SrI HaygrIvan ( HayagrIvasya
Panjaram )
.
Let us enjoy the
dhyAna-janitha aanandham of the VakthrA of
Sri HayagrIva Panjaram in the
next posting .
