SrI: SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah: Dearest Srivaishnavas, OK. Kaakaasuran, SisupAlan- I had condoned their apachArams and pardoned them. But how can you expect me to do that on everyone? How can you instruct me to do so? Also You performed Prapatti (Saranagathi); After completing your whole life only, at the end, you need to ask for kshamA (forgiveness). How can you ask now? Alavandhaar responds saying Saranagathi has to be performed only once- You mentioned. nanu prapannas sakrdEva nATha thavaahamasmeethi cha yaacha maana: thavaanukampya smaratha: prathignyAm mathEkavarjam kimitham vratham thE [64] Raghu nAThA! My nAthA! One who has performed Saranagathi once with a desire to be Your servant; and pleads for the same- whoever it is; You had taken a vow, pledge (vratham) which You would never ever forget.. Isn?t that Your limitless compassion? Such a sankalpam of Yours to protect all those Saranagthars whoever they are? Did You exclude me [when You made that sankalpam]? [A brilliant sloka! Alavandhaar?s master stroke to PerumAL]. When the whole army of Sugreeva was there along with Rama Lakshmana, in the sea shore [before crossing the ocean and going to lankA], You categorically and mercifully made the most wonderful assuaging and assuring statement [declaring Your acceptance of Vibheeshana saranagathi and also declaring Your vow [sankalpam] to protect all Saranagathars whoever they are.. sakrthEva prapannaaya thavaasmeethicha yaachathE abhayam sarva bhUthEbhyO dadAmyEthath vratham mama? This famous statement of Yours- whenever anyone having performed Saranagathi once says: I have realised that I am Yours; such one will be granted fearlessness (abhayam) by me for all future to come? This is my Promise; vow.. Raamaar dhwin nAabhibhAshathE.. Rama never utters twice. If anyone approaches You once and performs his Saranagathi, saying, ?I am Yours, ? You entail in him a greatest fearless state of granting him abhayam? You only said that in the sea shore in front of the whole army of Sugreeva and Vibheeshana. You are Raghu nAthA and my nathAn. You in Your infinite mercy protect all beings thus, who take refuge in Your Lotus feet.. Please bless me also as You have not excluded me when You made that vow. Thavaahamasmeethicha yaacha maana: I am Yours. I have realised that I am Yours now ? when I performed the Sarangathi; Hence please bless me with more Bhagavad Kaimkaryam. Please grant me more jnAnam, deeds towards the same. Alavandhaar ThiruvaDigaLE SaraNam Regards Namo Narayana dasan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
