SrI: Dear BhakthAs of Lord RanganAtha: adiyEn will continue with the 834th to the 858th Sahasra Naamams today, which will take us to the end of the 6th chapter of Srimath Rahasya Thraya Saaram . (834) (PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAthi kAryathva karmavasyathva SaadhakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who instrcuted us that Brahmaa and Rudhran as the chief among the dEvathAs are KaaryarhaL ( Those who are created by Sriman NaarAyaNan) and are Karma vasyarhaL ( under the influence of their punya and paapa karmAs). (Comments): Brahma and Rudhra got their exalted positions thru performance of specail AarAdhanams of Sriman NaarAyaNan ( Example: major Yaagam of SarvamEdham by Rudhran). Thus they enjoy their karma phalan and therefore are beneficaries of their karmAs ( Karma vasyALs) .They have obtained their karmAdhIna sareerams. It is very appropriate that kaaryathvam and kaaraNathvam are mentioned together in the same name here . Kaaryathvam ( gaining a sareeram due to karma phalan) and Karma vasyathvam ( being under the influence of one's poorva karmAs) go together. (835) ( PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAdhi Bhagavath paaratantrya VichArakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who instructed us that BrahmA and Rudhran are under the influence of VishNu Maayai ( Prakruthi) . They are paratantrAs to Sriman NaarAyaNan , their Supreme Lord . (836) (PraNavam) BrahmAdhi BhagavanmAyAyattha dheehrAsa vrutthi dhrusE nama: (Meaning) : Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who pointed out that Brahma and Rudhran have decreased Jn~Anam (Jn~Ana sankOsam) due to their being under the influence of BhagavAn's Maayaa . (Comments): Sruthi , Smruthi and PurANams attest to this . BrahmA's Jn~Ana sankOsam was at the time of Madhu and KaiDapan stealing the VedAs and BrahmA losing his Jn~Anam during that time of VedApahAram . Sri HayagrIva avathAram took place then to help Brahmaa . Rudran's Brahmahatthi dhOsham arising from the plucking of one of the five heads of BrahmA , his father . (837) (PraNavam) VishNudarsitha sargOpasargAdhividhisambhu dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who invted our attention to the fact that Brahma and Rudhran have their powers of creation and destruction of naama roopa prapancham due to the anugraham of Sriman NaarAyaNan , their Supreme Master. ( MahA BhAratham mentions this specifically : tathA darsitha PanthAnou/ thus having been shown the way by their Lord , Sriman NaarAyaNan ) . (838) (PraNavam) SubhAsrayathva rahitha Brahma-RudhrAdhi SaadhakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who declared that Brahmaa and Rudhran do not have SubhAsraya ThirumEni , the meditation of which leads to Moksham . ( SubhAsrayam is the sacred & auspicious form of the Para dEvathai , which is firmly and easily retained by the mind before dhyAnam for one's saadhanaa and anushtAnam for gaining Moksha Phalan). DhyAnam on other dEvathAs can not lead to MOksham and will only return us to SamsAram. (839) (PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAdhi ThriguNa paaravasya niroopakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who revelaed that BrahmA and Rudhran are subject to the influence of three guNams ( Satthva-Rajas & Tamas). (Comment): On the opposite scale , as the Supreme Being , Sriman NaarAyaNan is SubhAsrayan , Sarva Sakthan , Svatantran and is free from the influence of the three guNams unlike the other dEvathAs. (840) Brahma-RudhrAdhi BhagavathAsrithatathva VidhAyakAya nama: (Meaning) : Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that Brahmaa and Rudhran are those , who seek the refuge of Sriman NaarAyaNan , when they face calamities . As the Supreme Being , Sriman NaarAyaNan is not dependent on anyone for His rakshaNam. He is Omnipotent . (841) (PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAdhi Bhagavat vibhoothithva niroopakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that Brahmaa and Rudhran are vibhoohtis of the Para DEvathai , Sriman NaarAyaNan . ( They are His subjects and as such ruled by Him as His property). (842) (PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAdhi Bhagavath-- prakArathvaabhidhAyakAya nama: (Meaning) : Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that Brahmaa , Rudhran and all the other dEvathAs are prakArams to Him ( Brahmaa , Rudhran et al are part of the body of Sriman NaarAyaNan and as such , they are prakAram to the Lord ; they are never therefore seperated from their Lord ; they are VisEshaNams to the Supreme Being ). (843) ( PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAdhi BhagavaccharIrathva prakAsakAya nama: (Meaning) : Salutations to Swamy Desikan, who illustrated that Brahmaa and Rudhran are the SarIram for BhagavAn and that the Lord is their antharAthmA (indweller ) as in case of all jeevans . (844) (PraNavam) Brahma-RudhrAdhi Bhagavath DhAsathva sTapana KshamAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who was capable of proving that Brahmaa and Rudhran are the Daasa bhUthars of Sriman NaarAyaNan ( Sarvaj~nan , Rudhran declares his Daasathvam to the Lord in his eulogy of the Lord in his Manthra Raaja Padha sthOthram). (845) (PraNavam) SaathvikathvOpatthi hEthu Madhusoodhana dhrushti dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who understood that Saathvika GuNam grows in one due to the glances of Madhusoodhanan falling on them at birth ( PramANam: JaayamAnam hi purusham yamm pasyEth Madhussodhana: , Saathvika: Sa thu vij~nyEya: sa vai mokshArTa chinthaka: /Sage VyAsar) . (846) (PraNavam) Rajas-tamO-guNaasakthi hEtu BrahmAdhi dhrushti dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that the falling of the glances of Brahma and Rudhran on a child at birth can only lead to the dominance of RajO and TamO guNmas respectively unlike Bhagavath KatAksham that makes them " karuvilE Thiru udayavarkaL" . (847) Brahma-RudhrAdhi MokshArTijanOpAsyathva BhadhakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who instructed us that those who seek mOksham ( Mumukshus) should only meditate on Sriman NaarAyaNan . Even Brahmaa and Rudhran seek the Lord , when they desire Moksham . Brahmaa , Rudhran and others are powerless to grant Moksham by themselves. (848) Brahma-RudhrAdhyupAsyathva vachO nirvAha kaarakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan who reminded us that Rudhra Bhakthan can not gain Moksham directly unlike VishNu bhakthan ( PramANam : Brahmaa and Rudhran bless their BhakthAs with Jn~Anam conducive to Moksham and therfore become the kaaraNams for Moksham : The phalan of worshipping Sooryan in seven JanmAs make one a Rudhra Bhakthan ; continuation of worship of Rudhran in seven JanmAs will make one a VishNu Bhakthan , who becomes eligible for moksham directly . Thus Rudhra Bhakthi is the reason for becoming a VishNu Bhakthan ). (849) Brahma- RudhrAdhi Paaramyadhruk karmAnarhathAdhi dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that those who believe that Brahmaa , Rudhran, Indhraa are superior to Sriman NaarAyaNa among all the Devathais would be ineligible for performing Vaidhika karmAs ( Those who persist in thinking that Brahma-RudhrAl are Para DEvathAs will develop Bhagavath dhvEsham and will become objects of BhagavAn's nigraham . Varaaha PurANam classes them as PaashaNDis). (850) BrahmAdhi Bhagavath-saamya dhruk PaashaNdithva SaadhakAya Nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that those who consider Brahmaa and Rudhran or ithara dEvathAs as equal to Sriman NaarAyaNan are PaashaNdis( NaashtikAs and those who adopt Vaidhika vEsham and engage in Vaidhika karmAs with the above attitude are classed as PaashaNdis). (851) ( PraNavam) VishNu-nigraahya pAthruthva rahithEtara dhaiva dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that those who have angered Sriman NaarAyaNan can not be protected by any other DEvathAs ( Examples: KaakAsura VrutthAntham and Ambhareesha- DhurvAsar episode). (852) (PraNavam) KshiprEtara phala-prApthi saadhanEtara dhiva dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who understood very well that the ithara devathAs are ideal for quick-yielding alpa samsAric phalans ( PramANam: Geethai : 4.12 ; the Moksha Phalan will not be given instantaneously like alpa phalan and is blessed only by Sriman NaarAyaNan . Even those alpa phalans are empowered to the ithara dEvathais by the Lord Himself ). (853)(PraNavam) kAmyAdhyaTAsritha- anantha-purushArtadh VishNudhiyE nama: (meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that SarvEswaran can grant SamsAric Kaamya/alpa Phalans as well as the grand phalan of Moksham ( When we ask for Kaamya Phalans , our Lord grants them and develops gradually the path for Moksham for us. The ithara dEvathAs stop at the point of granting SamsAric Phalans) . (854) (PraNavam) Ajn~yAnyadeva yajana preetha VishNu- prakAsakAya Nama: (Meaning):Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that Lord alone is pleased by the worship of ithara dEvathAs by those , who do not have the proper Jn~Anam ( that the ithara dEvathAs are BhagavAn's sareeram ). The PramANam here is Bhagavath Geethai: 7.23 , which states that the worship done by these aj~nAnis will not count as worship done according to SaasthrAs . (855) (PraNavam) Ajn~yadEva yajana phala vaikalya saadhakAya Nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who reminded us that the aarAdhanam done for ithara dEvathAs by these Saasthra-- Jn~Anam deficient chEtanams would yield only less phalans . Although the Lord is pleased with that aarAdhanam , He will only give less phalan . (856) (PraNavam) VishNvAthmakAnya dEvajana karma poushkalya sAdhakAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who instructed us that those who understood that ithara dEvathAs have VishNu as their aathmA are the ones , whose vaidhika karmAs are fulfilled ( PoorNam) . Direct worship of the Lord in recognition of His tatthvam as ParadEvathai will yield the complete Phalan of that aarAdhanam . (857) PraNavam) NishkAma VishNu sEvA anushangAnya Phala siddhi dhrusE nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who instructed us that VishNu aarAdhanam without desiring any phalans ( nishkAmyam) will yield other auspicious phalans such as Iswaryam and AarOgyam even with out asking ( anushankam). (858) (PraNavam) ParAnkusAdhi SrIsookthi SaadhithOthkrushta-MAdhavAya nama: (Meaning): Salutations to Swamy Desikan , who performed upadEsam for us that Lakshmi Pathi , Sriman NaarAyaNan is the Supreme DEvathai based on the SrI Sookthis of Swamy NammAzhwAr and other AzhwArs ( PramANams: Pey AzhwAr --> "Saarvu namakku " paasuram ; Swamy NammAzhwAr: "ONDadiyAL ThirumahaLum NeeyumE nilaa niRppa" Paasuram ).
