SrI:

In the last posting , we experienced the moving plea of
Thirumangai mannan , when he pleaded with the Lord
to take note of the changes in him and to protect him against
the cheshtais of the PanchEndhriyams that  land him in the various
narakams .

Thirumangai mannan appealed to the Lord in His role as HrusheekEsan
( Controller of Hrusheekams/Indhriyams) to save him from the tyranny of
the PanchEndhriyams . Oh ThiruviNNagarappa ! You are the Kudi
(aadharam ) to all . These PanchEndhriyams have taken turns
( kooRaa Eivar) to torture me ; some times they try to tempt me one at
a time .Other times , they join together and gang up on me. Anyway ,
their attacks are relentless . The end result is deeper and deeper
immersion in SamsAric mud without no escape in sight .

These panchEndhriyams are the land lord of this sinking , stinking
samsaric mud ( Kudi-vittavar ) and position me there as a tenant .
adiyEn can not trust them to do any good and therefore , adiyEn
has developed VairAgyam against Raaga-dhvEshams and have rushed
to Your ThiruvadivAram now ( adiyEnai aaRAvemm narahatthu idak-
karuthi kooRA vanthu kumaikka kudivittavarai tERAthu Unn-adainthEn ,
ThiruviNNagar MeyavanE ) . Kudivittavr are the PanchEndhriyams .
The one who has no faith in them as beneficiaries is adiyEn ( tERAthu
niRpavan adiyEn ) . They jostle me and kick me around as a foot ball
( Vanthu kumaikkirArkaL ) . These five vyakthis (entities) grabbed me
and stomped  me , kicked me around , knocked me off my feet
and placed me in meeLaa-naraham .

adiyEn fought them by throwing the sword of VivEkam that you have
blessed us with and developed VairAgyam . Before that resolute act ,
adiyEn romped along with them happily and enjoyed the poison of
samsAra bhOghams as though they were nectar . adiyEn has now
spurned these bhOgams as totally destructive and reached Your
dhivya dEsam  and am prostrating before You .

Thirumangai Mannan is an AchAryan and his upadEsams have been
echoed by the AchAryAs , who followed him . Their moving prayers
for relief from the horrors of PanchEndhriyam are equally moving .
Let us reflect today on Swamy Desikan's own prayers for freedom
from the bheethi (fear) caused by the PanchEndhriyams as decribed
by him in his SrI Sookthi of  Abheethi Sthavam :

Oh Lord ! The AchAryas sent by You have described You as " Sakruth praNatha
rakshaNa praTitha samvidha Samvidha: " ( One who has taken a vow before
the worlds to protect any one who has prostrated before You and sought
Your protection ) . Please save me from the bheethi caused by
the PanchEndhriyams . adiyEn has mitha buddhi ( of insignificant
intellect = siRRaRivinan ) . adiyEn has huge ignorance (ajn~Anaam)
as my abundant wealth ( BahuLa mOha bhAjan ) .Hence adiyEn
is overcome by dEhAthma Brahamam . adiyEn thinks of me as a Svatantra
purushan and  my Manas -speech and body engage in vipareetha kaaryams
while being influenced by the thriguNams of Satthvam-Rajas and Tamas .

GuNEsa ! VishNO ! HarE ! JanArdhana ! Thriyuga NaaTa ! NaarAyaNa !
ThiruviNNagarappA ! You have declared in Your SaasthrAs that any
BhAgavathan , who stays at Your dhivya dEsam controlling his Indhriyams
and meditates on You is well protected by You ( VaSee ThvadhEka niyatha
aaSaya: , yathra dEsE kadhAchidhapi vardhathE , tasya kudhascchana bheethi:
na bhavEth ). For them , who are thriguNa langana udhyOgina: ( who want to
cross over samsAram and wish to gain Moksham ) , You serve as an ever
wakeful rakshakan ( Jaagarookan)  . You  have vowed to extend Your hand
and lift them out of the samsAric mud ( Kara grahaNa DhIkshithan ) .

ThiruviNNagarappA ! the terrors of Garbha Vaasam and Naraka Vaasam
from the sins under the goading of PanchEndhriyams driven by the three
guNams are too fearsome to describe by speech (Naraka garbha vaasa
aadhikam vakthumapi na sakyathE ) . If you do not take pity on adiyEN ,
who else is there to protect me from SamsAra Bheethi ? ( Thvam na
dayishyasE chEth , iTtham anukampithaa Ka: ? ) . Who else is there that
deserves Your compassion more than adiyEn ( Thvadh anukampaneeya:
cha Ka : ? ) .

Jagath PathE ( Oh Lord of the Universe ) !  Dayitha AakAsa nagareesa
( Oh Lord ,who is fond of ThiruviNNagaram as Your nithya vaasasthalam ) !
adiyEn is standing before You full of fears about the sorrow-causing and
tough to defeat vishaya sukhams that interferes with Your anubhavam
( aham vishAdha-bahuLAnAm dhurjayAth vishaya vargathO Thvadh
anubhUthi vicchEdha: BibhEmi ) .You are well known for Your inability
to turn down a SaraNAgathan even if he had offended You with all
his sins under the influence of the thriguNams ( BhavAn SaraNAgatha
bhanga bheetha : ) .Therefore , You should come to adiyEn's rescue
without fail . Please assure adiyEn of abheethi  from the five indhriyams
and their reign of terror ( Bhaya Vimukthi = freedom from fear) ! Bhayam
samaya ( Please remove adiyEn's fears ). Sriyam BahuLaya ( please grow
the VaishNava SrI ) ! Sriya vipaksham unmoolaya ( please destroy down
to the roots adiyEn's enemies , who try to throw me into narakams ) .
adiyEn has placed the responsibility of aathma rakshA bharam  at Your
sacred feet ( Thvayi ayam bhara: ithi samarpitha: ) .   Please use Your
five weapons ( PanchAyudhams) to chase away forcefully in a second ,
the viparItha chEshtais of the PanchEndhriyams  ( Rakshakai:  panchabhi:
aayudhai : kshaNAth prasabham kshapaya ) .

Oh ThiruviNNagarappA ! oh PrakrushDa guNaka ( Oh the abode of lofty
and auspicious attributes ) ! Goaded by BhUmi PirAtti ( Vasudhayaa
samdhukshitha: ) , May Thou use Your ocean of DayA in a powerful
manner to bless me with the freedom from fear caused by
the PanchEndhriyams ( Vasudhayaa Samdhkshitha: prayuktha karuNA
udhadhi : Sva-sakthyA Svayam prasamaya ) ! PrabhO ! PrathipaDAn samaya
( Oh Lord! Please control and subjugate adiyEn's enemies/PanchEndhriyams
and bless me with freedomfrom fear ) ! If You have the sankalpam to protect
anyone , there is no cause for fear anymore for them ( yathra Thvayi
ririkshathi , tathra prathibhayam kimchith na: ) .
