Please accept our humble pranam: Sri piLLai lOkAchAryA's yaadruchchika-p-padi lOkAchAryAya guravE krshNa paadasya sUnavE | yat kataakshaika laksyaaNaam sulabah: srIdhara: sadaa || charama sloka prakaraNam: sarvadharmAn parityajya maam Ekam saraNam vraja | aham thvaa sarva pApEbhyO mOkshayishyaami maa sucha: || sarvadharmAn ? after he was taught the karma, gnyaana and bhakti yOgas in order, Arjuna, due to the preciousness and difficulty of the three yOgas, and due to the fact that they were not in accordance with his svarUpa, became sad and worried about how to attain the ultimate thing. Krishna remove Arjuna's worries by saying "Discard everything that I have taught you till now, and take Me as the only means to the goal ? I will remove all of your obstacles ? Do not worry". sarvadharmAn ? all the dharmaas; all the means that were told before; parityajya ? discard them (similar to discarding food we don?t want down to the taste and smell!); maam ? Me, the one who has taken your salvation as my responsibility/duty; Ekam ? ONLY me; saraNam ? as the means; vraja ? take, or persevere; aham ? Me, who is all Supreme; thvaa ? you, who has discarded all other means and goals other than Me; sarva pApEbhya:- from all the obstacles that stand in the way of you attaining Me; mOkshayishyaami ? will free you from; maa sucha: - do not worry Thus, Lord Krishna removes the worry of Arjuna by saying " Discard all the means along with their auxiliary prescriptions, and take Me, me who possesses all the auspicious qualities such as vaatsalya (the quality of enjoying even the faults of His devotees), ONLY me as the means; I, who am all powerful, will free you ? the one who is taking only ME as the means - from all of your bindings and give you salvation. Do not worry". =============================================================== AzhvAr emperumAnAr jIyar thiruvadigaLE saraNam, adiyEn Madhurakavi dAsan, Thirumalai AnandAnpiLLai SrInivAsa Varadhan =============================================================== Vedic_Books http://www.radioramanuja.com/eb ------------------------ Yahoo!
