Life Insurance Corporation of India
introduced a policy termed as "jEvan Anand" whereby the insured get the benefits
both during his lifetime (survival benefits) and is also assured of sum assured
after the death.
The double benefits is thus guaranteed
under this policy.
It is generally presumed that when one
desires to attain the Lord's divine feet all other desires wither off. There are
exceptions, perhaps.
In case of Shri gOvindha-swAmy, a great
learned devotee of thiru-vENkatamudaiyAn, when he had the vision of the Almighty
the Lord pointed to him that some worldly desires are still lingering on and He
guaranteed salvation after he finishes off all such desires in this world and
then he can reach Him subsequently.(thOgai mA-mayil annavar
inbam, thuthilAmayil atha ingozhindhu)
This type of grant of having the desire
fulfilled here and the desire of attaining His lotus feet is indeed a double
benefit which thirumangai AzhwAr specifies
"mA-maga mAnilam
muzhudhum vandhiRainjum malar-adi, kaNDa
mA-maRaiyALan,
thOgai mA-mayil
annavar inbam, thuthilAmayil atha ingozhindhu, pOdhuvAi pinnum nam-idaikkEa enRA
pEAr aruL.." 5-8-5;
