9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

MangaLams to the SaraNyan Lord of ThiruviNNAgar who is the embodiment of beauty who incarnated out of DayA for His bhakthAs and rejected the taste of salt in His food for the sole purpose of qualifying to marry the most beautiful BhUmi Devi the daughter of Sage MarkandEyA

9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

Seventh Mangala slOkam on Uttara VenkatEsan

parasmai brahmaNE purNa kAmAya paramAthmanE I prayunjE paratattvAya VenkatEsAya mangaLam II

May Auspiciousness be to Sri VenkatEsA who is the supreme Brahman whose desires are fulfilled (i-e who is desireless) and who is the supreme soul

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

MangaLams to the SaraNyan Lord of ThiruviNNAgar who is the embodiment of beauty who incarnated out of DayA for His bhakthAs and rejected the taste of salt in His food for the sole purpose of qualifying to marry the most beautiful BhUmi Devi the daughter of Sage MarkandEyA

9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

Seventh Mangala slOkam on Uttara VenkatEsan

parasmai brahmaNE purNa kAmAya paramAthmanE I prayunjE paratattvAya VenkatEsAya mangaLam II

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

What readers are telling about ldquo Where has our tradition goneldquo

In Tamil by Poigaiadian In English Dr Saroja Ramanujam MA PhD Sanskrit Siromani

article in our Srivaishnavism group in facebook

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

MangaLams to the SaraNyan Lord of ThiruviNNAgar who is the embodiment of beauty who incarnated out of DayA for His bhakthAs and rejected the taste of salt in His food for the sole purpose of qualifying to marry the most beautiful BhUmi Devi the daughter of Sage MarkandEyA

9

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Comments The ThiruviNNagar sthala purANam-Covered at length by Sri Sampath Rengarajan earlier- states that the Lord appearing as an old man vying for the hand of the young BhUmi Devi assured Sage MarkandEyA the worried father that He will rather give up salt totally in His food instead of worrying whether the bride can prepare food with the right amount of saltseasoning Sage MarkaNdEyA was trying to discourage the old man seeking his daughters hand in marriage with the statement that his daughter Bhumi Devi was so young that She does not even know how to prepare food and even add the right amount of salt in the food to properly season it The clever old man our Lord disarmed Sage MarkandEyA with His deft concession that he would rather give up salt than the hand of Bhumi Devi Once Sage MarkandEyA recovered from that parry he had no argument He recognized now the true identity of the old man standing in front of him beseeching his daughters hand in marriage The sage gladly consented now to the marriage and stays even today with folded hands on the left side of the Lord at His garbhagraham On the right hand side is his daughter serving the Lord who has taken on the name of LavaNa varjitha VenkatEsan or the One who has rejected salt in His NaivEdhyams out of His love for His consort

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

In Tamil by Poigaiadian In English Dr Saroja Ramanujam MA PhD Sanskrit Siromani

article in our Srivaishnavism group in facebook

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

article in our Srivaishnavism group in facebook

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

article in our Srivaishnavism group in facebook

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

What readers are telling about ldquo Where has our tradition goneldquo

In Tamil by Poigaiadian In English Dr Saroja Ramanujam MA PhD Sanskrit Siromani

article in our Srivaishnavism group in facebook

Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Jeeyar

priya bhagawathbhandhu These days we are interested in money making and hence we all go to the countries forgiving the punya bhumi where we can live happily Stomuch is also one which will not listen to us at the same time luxury is another both are to be fullfilled Srivaishnavas population is daybyday going down because it is only srivaishnavas who practically implimenting the govt projects in limiting the population It is only srivaishnavas who have been a scape goat since many centuries Once all temples were destroyed another time srivaishnavas were killed At later dates brahmins were not considered for govt jobs as it was done for reserved candidates Hence there were many sufferings in brahmin community This lead us to the tight corner But one has to appreciate brahmins because they depend on the lord who cares for every one on the earth WHO WILL MAINTAIN THE TRADITION PROBABLI LORD ONLY THE ULTIMATE WHEN THIS IS THE SITUATION WHY NOT WE PRAY THE LORD SRIMANNARAYANA TO ONCE AGAIN SHOW HIS POWER AS IT WAS DONE DURING SAMUDRA MANTHANA TO REOPEN ALL THOSE TEMPLES WHICH ARE CLOSED AND REINSTALL OUR AGEOLD TRADITION WHICH IS PURE AND AUSPICIOUS TO FIND RAMARAJYAM

Varalakshmi Anandkumar The saddest thing about our cultureis the apathy of its followers Nobody bothers about our age old customs and most of them are discarded as old fashioned and silly Why should we blame others for making a mockery of our religion when we dont stand up for it ourselves And the richest culture where every single mooda nambikai is based in solid scientific fact

Pavithra Sagar exactly but we also using cow dung 4r yechai payratudalukku also but we r bring 4rm Sholingur we r useing dry dung 4r th in saastram whtr we can use dry dung r not we dont no

Sriram Raghunath Dung was to be taken from the home-bred cow not some stray

ones or from ones with a commercial milk vendor When the cow at home is fed

properly where is the question of paper or plastic Even with ceramic flooring I

know a few families in suburbs of chennai who use caanam and gomium to sprinkle

at the door step corners and walls to disinfect and avoid pests

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

11 The Discovery of Gracious God ndashThe Great Enjoyer and Friend of all

1 When mind ceases to function breath stops and when breath stops mind ceases to function A person gets deprived and depraved every time desire fear and anger make their evil appearance in his mind The presence of aatman is obscured in a disturbed mind When the mind gets steady meditation becomes easy and spontaneous Incessantly directing the mind on Is‟wara how should the yogi think of Him Here comes the discovery of the Deity by the self-illumined yogin

Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities (jnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam) as the great Lord of all the worlds

21

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

(sarva loka mahesrsquovaram) as the well-wisher of all beings (suhridam sarva-bhootaanaam) he attains peace (srsquoaantim richhati)rdquo ndash (529)

2 Krishna concludes the discussion on the self-illumined yogi with a cryptic but profound observation ndash the real glory of self-realisation ndash its discovery of the great enjoyer and later development into God realization or mukti The yogi discovers God ndash the enjoyer of all sacrifices acceptor of all austerities the great Lord of all the worlds and the well-wisher of all beings and there by attains peace The expression ndash ldquojnaatvaa maam bhoktaaram yajna-tapasaam - Knowing Me as the enjoyer of all sacrifices and austeritiesrdquo deserves explanation as it is a cryptic but profound expression of all that Krishna has been saying up to close of chapter 5 and later on as well 3 At the outset it is to be stated that a commentator sees contradiction between verses 15 and 29 of chapter 5 A careful examination will reveal that it is not so Firstly verse 15 the reference is to the individual soul whereas the verse 29 refers to the Deity Verse 15 simply states that the pure soul (the non-doer) does not take responsibility for any action ndash good or evil Its assumption of responsibility arises when it identifies itself with the body ndash senses-mind-intellect complex the non-self which is the real doer This is pure delusion arising out of true knowledge veiled by ignorance The essence of verse 529 is reiterated in a number places particularly in (924 26 ndash 29) and (1514) which are expressions of Deity‟s never failing Grace 4 The various expressions used in (529) are of great significance as guidance to the saadhaka bhoktaaram yajna tapasaam ndash indicates that actions should be done in yajna spirit sarvaloka mahesrsquovaram ndash indicates that the saadhaka should consider that nothing is his and all belongs to the Deity only suhridam sarvabhootaanaam ndash indicates that the saadhaka should regard the Deity only as his all ndash the means as well as the goal If any one of these is practised to perfection the other two get automatically practised and the saadhaka discovers God ndash realizes God Verse (529) is an open invitation of Krishna to all of us to enter the Kingdom of God through true (tattvatah) understanding of God‟s supreme personality and His unfailing Grace an echo of what he had already stated in (49 10) 5 There is a subtle hint in (529) that karma Yoga with its yajna spirit (lokasamgraha) is the real worship of God which earns the Lord‟s Grace leading to lasting peace The reference to ldquoknowing Merdquo is significant if we understand and realise the bdquoMe‟ that is referred to ndash Me whose birth and actions are divine (49) Me who is the refuge of those who are free from attachment fear and anger and Whom many purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) have attained (410) Me who is actionless though engaged in various kinds of activity (413 99) ldquoHaving known Me as the great Lord of all the worldsrdquo means ndash having raised one‟s consciousness to the level of My consciousness (mad - bhaavam mama-saadharmyam) ldquoknowing Me as the friend of all beingsrdquo means ndash as the source of supreme joy who brings about lifendashsupporting happiness Here is the Lord‟s exhortation to mankind to enter the kingdom of God through the following of His own example This is what the Lord means when He said that seeing understanding and realising Him in the manner stated the aspirant attains to lasting peace Apart from what has been stated there is a subtle suggestion in (529) which a little reflection and actual experience would confirm namely that in karma Yoga with its spirit of service to society the rigours of duty would vanish and it would be an ever-joyous activity If this spirit of service is directed towards God (abiding in society) ndash Vide

22

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

(631) and (1846) not only this joy in work is enhanced but also in the process we are lead to become the embodiment of qualities stated by God Himself in (529) 6 The verse 529 reminds of Krishna‟s significant observation - ldquoHe who understands in truth - yah vetti tattvatah My Divine birth and Divine actions (and teachings) - janma karma ca me divyam does not get rebirth - punarjanama na eti after leaving the body - tyaktvaa deham he will come to Me - sah maam etirdquo ndash (49) 7 The Deity (Isrsquowara) resides as the conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns fruits of various activities according to their deserts As karma emanates from Him knowledge and wisdom also come to beings from Him Krishna assures that the yogi who gives his ceaseless thought to these and other glories of Isrsquowara gains supreme peace Obviously the one who is to know to attain peace is different from what is to be known (Krishna or the Deity) It is easy to see that the Paramaatma and the jeevaatma are distinct entities (Vide discussion on very significant verse (1326) to follow 8 As beautifully stated by Sri Aurobindo ldquoThe last word the climax of chapter five comes in (529) ndash the knowledge of the active Brahman the cosmic super soul is insisted on among the conditions of the peace of nirvaanrsquoa He is the enjoyer of all sacrifice and of all tapasya therefore shall the seeker of liberation do works as a sacrifice and as a tapasya he is the lord of all the worlds manifested in nature and in these beings therefore shall the liberated man still do works for the right government and leading on of the peoples in these worlds lokasamgraha he is the friend of all existences therefore is the sage who has found nirvaanrsquoa within him and all around still and always occupied with the good of all creaturesrdquo By responding thus through his actions to the friend of all beings man also would win the ultimate peace for he would have used his freedom and autonomy not to cling on to a narrow identity but to identity with the totality and with the Deity who ever works for its well beingrdquo What is required is to cultivate real relationship with the eternal Being the Soul of our souls the dearest friend the Father the Mother and everything It is only then we will find the Brahman and realize eternal bliss everywhere and at every moment of our lives In short Krishna is exhorting all of us to imitate Him (madbhaavam mama saadharmyam) (529) is an excellent introduction to chapter six which itself concludes with an exhortation to devotion to the Deity 9 In the three srsquolokas (527 ndash 29) Krishna introduced the discipline - the yoga of meditation The first two srsquolokas briefly described the yoga of meditation and the third spoke of its fruit namely the discovery and thereby gaining the knowledge of the Deity Thus ends the fifth chapter with this wonderful note of assurance The entire chapter six will throw further light on these aspects

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

SRIVAISHNAVISM

The Wisdom of Krishna ndash Through Select

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

Thotalam Chellaswami

Retd Senior IES Officer Govt of India and

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Thayar is Padmasani also called Pushpavalli The Theertham is Chakra Theertham and the

DHARMA STHOTHRAM

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

DHARMA STHOTHRAM

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

SRIMADH BHAAGAVATHAM

Other Rishis told Balarama that ldquo It is very bad that you have

killed Roma harshanar It is BrahmahathiDOsham We gave him

BrahmAsanam You are an avathar Still you canrsquot escape from

that DOsha For this Dosha you have to do prAyacitam ldquo

Balarama also felt

bad and said ldquo I will

give give long and

full life In his place

I will appoint his

son Uchaisravas

and give him

DeegaAyus

Herafter let him do

Rishis also

said when Balarama completes his theerthayathra for one year

he will getrid from his Brahmahathi DOsha

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

Thotalam Chellaswami

Retd Senior IES Officer Govt of India and

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

DHARMA STHOTHRAM

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

SRIMADH BHAAGAVATHAM

Other Rishis told Balarama that ldquo It is very bad that you have

killed Roma harshanar It is BrahmahathiDOsham We gave him

BrahmAsanam You are an avathar Still you canrsquot escape from

that DOsha For this Dosha you have to do prAyacitam ldquo

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

DHARMA STHOTHRAM

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Other Rishis told Balarama that ldquo It is very bad that you have

killed Roma harshanar It is BrahmahathiDOsham We gave him

BrahmAsanam You are an avathar Still you canrsquot escape from

that DOsha For this Dosha you have to do prAyacitam ldquo

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Part 71

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Vedavit kavih ThirumangaiAzhwar loved Kumudhavalli and she in turn just asked him as he must

serve thousand vaishnavas everyday for an year and should have the marks of Sri

Vaishnava This servicethen became addicted as a devotees of Sriman Narayana

Thirumangai Azhwar then spent all his wealthtime thoughts and service only to Sri

Vaishnavas Once Sriman Narayana with His consort appeared before him as a newly

wedded couple bedecked with priceless ornamentsBut as Azhwar was in short of

funds Azhwar stopped the couple and forcibly relieved them of all the jewellery

excepting a piece on His toe Then Azhwar put his head on His lotus feet just to bite

the ring off He realized the true nature of the couple are only sriman Narayana and Sri

Maha Lakshmi Thirumandhiram or Ashtaaksharam is thus got initiated by the Lord

HimselfHe thus learnt of the efficacy of the divine name Narayana from our Lord

Narayana HimselfThis forced him to write Peria Thirumozhi in 1084 verses In 1138

he sings as ayiram peranai per ninaithu we will sing the glories of our sarveswaran

Singing His thousand divine names to the full satisfaction of our mouths we will also

dance Contemplating on His greatest divine names we adorn our heads with the

most fragrant thulasi garland that He has worn And if we have that thought alone

we with a desire to unite with Him will unite with Him surely Similar to this

Azhwars and Acharyars had an experience of enjoying divine namas found in Sri

Vishnu Sahassranamam In Dharma sthothram 130 namas of Sri Vishnu

Sahasranamam is so far dealt In 131 st nama vedavit it is One who is realised

through the vedas one who makes people practice the rites in the vedas and hence

attain him Sriman narayana is One who knows all the vedas He knows not only the

32

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Vedas but the true inner meaning behind the Vedas viz Dharma He has the capacity

to interpret and examine the Vedas In Atharvana veda III301sahrudayam

saammanasyam it is said as Paramatma the supreme creator instructed man His

progeny to inculcate mutual sympathy generosity and friendliness Just as a cow

after giving birth to a calf licks it with her tongue and removes from its body the

umblical filth and makes it clean and good looking in the same way let every human

being try sincerely to be a social benefector In Rig veda v605sudhina

marudubhya The supreme God is the youthful father of us all We are provided by

him with a nature capable of milking all desirable objects Prakrti provides good times

for all In Yajur veda xxv 21devahitham yathayu as We hear the auspicious words

with the ears while performing yagna or worshipping the God We can the auspicious

things through our eyes With the strong limbs and healthy bodies we can be

praising the lord Whatever lifespan is utilised in the service of God we can spend

that totally for the purpose Again in Rig veda x191 Samano manthra it is proclaimed

as Common be our prayer common be our end common be our purpose common

be our deliberation common be our desires unified by our hearts united be our

intentions perfect be the union amongst us He has a knowledge of dharma which He

makes others practice and He does it Pradyumna is called as vedavit as his

appealations are Dharma the illuminator and instigator

In 132 nd nama Kavith it is one who assimilates everything beyond ordinary

perception with exceptional foresight He is considered as One who sees everything

There is no person other than Sriman Narayana with such extraordinary nature

Sriman narayana is all knowing and intelligent He who sees and knows everything

Hence He is One who cognizes beyond ordinary perception Besides natural

perfection such as infinitude eternity unchangeability omnipotenceomnipresence

which the deity is expected to have as the supreme being of the philosophers He has

also spritual perfections which may be classified as knowledge beauty and

goodness God is perfect in the performance of vows and ceremonies in yogic

restraint He has completed all the vows and ceremonies mentioned in vedas He is

the embodiment of one who has not fallen away from yoga He establishes law and in

order to set the standard of men conforms to Himself There is nothing holier on

earth or in heaven and nothing higher than Narayana Kndness compassion learning

self control sense control and conduct which are the main qualities in

Ramavatharam is added with full of love tenderness and grace even to the sinner are

His special characters in other incarnations Azhwars in their poems says as He is

not affected by changes and He is the source of time Thus Sriman narayana is called

as Purushothaman Sarveswaran Sriyapathi and Supreme Personalty

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

The Wisdom of Krishna ndash Through Select

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

Thotalam Chellaswami

Retd Senior IES Officer Govt of India and

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

SRIVAISHNAVISM

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

The Wisdom of Krishna ndash Through Select

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

Thotalam Chellaswami

Retd Senior IES Officer Govt of India and

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

SRIVAISHNAVISM

TIT ndash BITS

Sri Alavandar

Yamunacharya also popularly known as Alavandar was the son of Isvara

Bhatta and grandson of the great acharya Nathamuni He was born in 916 AD

at Viranarayanapuram (present day Kattu Mannargudi) in Tamil Nadu He

mastered several branches of learning in a very short time under the guidence

of Maha Bhashya Bhatta It is said that he defeated a conceited court poet by the

name Akkialvan In recognition of this victory he was given the title Alavandar

and was granted a gift of a territory by the king

40

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

The Wisdom of Krishna ndash Through Select

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

The Essence of the Teaching

Thotalam Chellaswami

Retd Senior IES Officer Govt of India and

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

It was due to the tireless efforts of Sri Rama Mishra (also known as Manakkal

nambi) the desciple of Pundarikaksha (also known as Uyyakkondar) that

brought back Yamuna to the spiritual life Sri Rama mishra initiated Yamuna

into the ultimate truths and passed to him the spiritual treasures bequeathed to

him by Sri Nathamuni After the initiation Yamuna became the leader of

Visistadvaita Vedantins and settled at the holy place of Srirangam

Alavandars greatness was well known to other Sri Vaishnavas such as Thiruk

kottiyur nambi Thirukkacchi nambikal Thirumaalai Andaan Periya Thirumalai

Nambikal Alavandar after receiving the blessing of Sri Ranganathar paid a

visit to Kanchi When he entered Sri AruLaaLap perumaaL shrine

Thirukkacchi NambikaL brought Sri Ramanuja to his attention saying He is

the one who naturally understands that The Lord Vishnu who has the eyes that

resemble a lotus is the true meaning of Vedanta Alavandar was very much

impressed with Ramanuja Periya Nambi one of his foremost disciples was

with Alavandar all this while

After returning to Sri Rangam Alavandar was restless to meet Ramanuja As

his health started to fail Alavandar requested Periya Nambi to bring Ramanuja

to Srirangam Sir Periya Nambi reached Kanchi and extended Alavandars

invitation to Ramanuja However before he could reach Srirangam Alavandar

reached the devine feet of Sri Ranganathar at Vaikundam Ramanuja returned to

Kanchi after promising to satisfy the three requests from Alavandar

1 The name of Parasara should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a

person worthy to bear it

2 Compose a commentary on Tiruvaymozhi of Sri Nammaazhvaar

3 Compose a commentary on Upanishads Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita

Sri Alavandar composed eight works

Agamapramanya This is entirely devoted to vindicating the authoritativeness

of Pancharatra Agamas

Mahapurusha Nirnaya In this work Sri Alavandar shows that the ultimate

reality is the Supreme Purusha Sriman Narayana

Atma Siddhi Iswara Sidhhi and Samvit Siddhi Collectively these three

works are known as Siddhitrayam The three siddhis establish the visistadvaitic

conception of soul God and knowledge

Gitarthasamgraha This is a marvellous work on Bhagavad gita which latter

formed the basis of Sri Ramanujas Gita Bhashya

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

Mahaavaakhyas in the Gita Sermon

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

48

everything else and who are ever steadfast in devotion (ananyaah cintayantah maam ye janaah paryupaasate nityaabhiyuktaanaam) - both of which are true marks of a devotee I promise ndash realisation of all their desires and safe-guarding of all their possessions (teshaam yogakshemam vahaamyaham) (Ie I take upon Myself the concern for their welfare)rdquo ndash (922) ldquoWhoever offers Me with true devotion a leaf a flower a fruit or some water I accept that offering made with devotion by him who is pure of heart Whatever you do whatever you eat whatever you offer in sacrifice whatever you gift away whatever austerities you perform O Kaunteya do it as an offering to Me ndash dedicate that to Me (that is do it with all humility respect and reverence) All the works you do are for the Lord only Thus thou shall be free from bondage of action yielding good and bad results With your heart (mind and intellect) firmly set on the path of renunciation (dedicated work) you will attain liberation and thereby come to Me ndash samnyaasayogayuktaamaa vimuktah maam upaishyasirdquo [926 ndash 28] [Selfless and dedicated work is indeed samnyaasa Here all selfishness is renounced So that way it is real samnyaasa But at the same time all duties are being done for the sake of and as dedication to the Deity That way it is karma Yoga Hence is the expression in (928) ndash samnyaasa yoga yukta aatmaa] ldquoI am the same to all beings to Me there is none hateful none dear But those who worship Me with love they are in Me and I am also in them Even if a man of most sinful conduct worships Me with undeviating devotion he must be reckoned as righteous for he has rightly resolved Quickly he becomes righteous and obtains everlasting peace Declare O Arjuna My devotee never perishesrdquo ndash 929 ndash 31 ldquoTo such devotees ever steadfast in devotion worshipping Me with love (teshaam satatayuktaanaam bhajataam preetipoorvakam) I provide buddhi yoga ndash discrimination by which they attain Me (dadaami buddhi yogam tam yena maam upayaanti te)rdquo ldquoOut of pure compassion for them (teshaam eva anukampaartham) abiding in their hearts (aatma bhaavasthah) I destroy the darkness born of ignorance ndash egoism (aham ajnaanajam tamah naasrsquoayaami) by the luminous lamp of wisdom ndash discrimination (jnaana deepena bhaasvataa)rdquo ndash 1010 11 [From the above observations it can be seen that bhakti is a saadhana (tapas) which changes the finite tendencies in the devotee Through this tapas the devotee is persuaded to draw his mind inwards and away from sense objects this enables him to understand and realize his true divine nature It is this transformation in the devotee that is called bdquoDivine Grace‟ Thus the intuitive wisdom that is bestowed on the devotee is a gift of God out of His compassion The phrase ndash aatmabhaavastah ndash abiding in the innermost self in (1010 11) is significant The devotee must seek inwardly for the manifestation of Divine Grace just as a jnaani has to seek within himself to realize the supreme Truth] ldquoBut O Partha soon I will lift from this ocean of worldly existence (na ciraat samuddhartaa mrityu samsaara saagarat) those whose minds are ever set on Me (teshaam aavesrsquoita cetasaam mayi) those who worship Me dedicating to Me the fruits of their actions (ye upaasate samnyasya sarvaanrsquoi karmaanrsquoi mayi) and regarding Me as the Supreme (mat paraah) meditating on Me with that Yoga exclusive of all else (dhyaayantah maam yogena ananyena eva)rdquo ndash (126 - 7)

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

DO YOU KNOW

24 Flatulence Prevention and Quick Remedies

Sometime or other all of us suffer from flatulence or problems of gas build up Gases

such as oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen are present in our digestive tract Oxygen

and nitrogen enters our gut as we eat and talk When the acids in our stomach react

with digestive juices and bile carbon dioxide is produced Gases absorbed in our blood

stream leaves our body as we exhale air through our lungs The remaining gases leave our body through the anus

Causes of flatulence

Problems of flatulence occur from overproduction of gases in our stomach Presence of

excess bacteria in the stomach that increase acid production could be responsible for

flatulence Flatulence can occur from foods that are hard to digest such as fiber rich

foods and malt products Food contamination can also be responsible for flatulence

Flatulence can be a symptom of gastroenteritis irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer

gallbladder diseases gallbladder stones colon cancer diverticulosis and food allergies

Flatulence prevention

In normal conditions flatulence is a sign of poor digestion To prevent flatulence you

should not go to bed soon after meal A walk after a heavy meal can help to speed up

digestion Certain spices and herbs such as asafetida ginger clove and green cardamom

can prevent flatulence To prevent gas formation do not drink water while eating You

should drink water at least fifteen minutes after taking your meal If you are prone to

flatulence limit soups and stews in your meals Dry meals could check your flatulence

problemsLegumes are often responsible for flatulence problems It is recommended

that before cooking legumes soak them in water for about five hours Through away the

water and then cook the legumes If flatulence is an extremely annoying problem for

you restrict consumption of cabbage cauliflower broccoli beans onions bran foods containing yeast and colas

Flatulence home remedies

To cure flatulence dip a slice of ginger in lemon juice and eat it Drinking peppermint tea

could cure flatulence Chamomile tea can also cure flatulence Grind 14 teaspoon of dry

ginger 14 teaspoon of black pepper 14 teaspoon of green cardamom seeds add a little water to make a thick paste Have this paste to cure flatulence

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

The Essence of the Teaching

Thotalam Chellaswami

Retd Senior IES Officer Govt of India and

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

The Essence of the Teaching

Senior Advisor UN (ILO)

9 Ananya Bhakti ndash The Only Way to Transcend the Three Gunrsquoas of Prakriti ldquoWhen the seer (knower) beholds (yadaa drashtrsquoaa anupasrsquoyati) no agent other than the gunrsquoas (dispositions of nature) ndash na anyam kartaaram gunrsquoebhyah that is that the dispositions of nature alone are the agents of all actions and not the self and knows that (the Supreme light that animates all phenomenal world and their activities ndash the expressions of the gunrsquoas) which transcends the gunrsquoas (gunrsquoebhyah ca param vetti) he (that knower) attains My state ndash oneness with Me (sah mad ndash bhaavam adhigacchati)rdquo ndash [1419] What then is the way to transcend the gunrsquoas Krishna stated ldquoHe who worships Me exclusively with unswerving devotion (maam yah ayahavyabhicaarena bhakiyogena sevate) transcends the bondage of the three modes of Nature (sah gunrsquoaan samateetya etaan) and becomes fit (through getting established in steady intellect) for the realization of the self or mukti (brahmabhooyaaya kalpate)rdquo ndash [14 26] 91 Both the verses - (1419) and (1426) which expand on and explain the very first mahaavaakya ndash exhortation ldquonishtraigunrsquoyo bhava arjunardquo (245) can together be

46

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

considered as mahaavaakhyas of the Gita Sermon As stated earlier verse (245) exhorting transcending of the gunrsquoas of prakriti is considered as the very essence of the Sermon So the knowledge which enables this transcendence is characterized as the highest knowledge - jnaanaanam jnaanam uttamam (141) Krishna has defined parama bhakti - supreme devotion without any otherness (ananyata) which alone will enable one to transcend the gunrsquoas and gain eligibility for self-realization Thus Krishna considered param jnaanam and parama bhakti as one and the same Moreover according to the Sermon this single-minded devotion (parama bhakti) is both the means as well as the goal of our spiritual saadhana and also of immense help in our secular pursuits as well Perhaps it is in order to present certain aspects of Bhakti - the principal saadhana in the context of discussion above 92 Integrated presentation of the four ideal personalities is yet another original contribution of the Sermon The Sermon speaks eloquently of self-control detachment and devotion of an ideal hero ndash variously described as ndash sthitaprajnah (A person of steady wisdom) ndash chapter 2 yogaaroodrsquohah (Integrated and self-illumined Yogi - a person who has transcended the body ndash consciousness and realized that he or she is spirit divine) ndash chapter 6 bhaktah (Devotee) dear to the Deity ndash chapter 12 and trigunrsquoaateetah (A person who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti) ndash chapter 14 The only qualifications stressed and exhorted upon are knowledge of the true self (the indwelling spirit divine) self-discipline and unswerving devotion and love of God It has been stated that one gets the necessary wisdom to gain control over the mind and consequent establishment in the state of steady intellect (sthita prajna) as a result of devotion to God and consequent Divine Grace ndash Vide ndash rasavarjam rasah api asya param drishtvaa nivartate ndash His longing also ceases when he intuits the Supreme (259) and taani sarvaanrsquoi samyamya yuktah aaseet matparah ndash the yogi having controlled them all sits focused on me as the Supreme goal (261) Also Krishna had pointed out only those who take refuge in Him (devotees) alone transcend the influence of the three gunrsquoas which are very hard to get over (714 1426) The integrated Yogi also as stated above is a devotee In fact that Yogi who integrates devotion and meditation is considered as the highest yogi by Krishna ndash ldquoOf all Yogis he who with his inner self merged in Me full of faith devoted to Me is considered by Me the most unitively establishedrdquo ndash (647) So in Krishna‟s characterization of all the four great and ideal personalities all being devotees (bhaktas) naturally overlap and taken together constitute the characteristics of the Gita‟s ideal personality It is also to be noted that at the highest level jnaana and bhakti are one and the same the truth that would become clear if we analyse the characteristics of these four ideal personalities Thus it is evident that whether it is the path of knowledge devotion or action the characteristics of the perfect person are the same 93 Thus a true devotee is at once - an integrated Yogi a man of steady wisdom and the one who transcended the three gunrsquoas of prakriti Moreover these four categories of perfect souls ndashdisplay some common essential characteristics ndash samyama (self-control) samatva (equanimity) bhakti (devotion) srsquoaantih (peace) nirvana (bliss) and sarvabhootahiteratih (interest in the welfare of all beings) All these are natural external expression of their inner experiences of the vision bliss ndash all resulting from supreme devotion 94 Krishna Himself represents an ideal personality ndash a paragon of wisdom a yogesrsquowara a person of universal action with no attachment whatsoever an embodiment of love and Grace the master of the world and a friend and well-wisher

47

of all beings (529) The Gita expects every man to rise to the status of this ideal personality (madbhaavam (attaining the state of God-hood) mama saadharmyam (attaining unity with the Deity) 95 Krishna has enumerated 26 values (virtues) which the Gita‟s ideal person incorporates into his personality These are ldquoFearlessness - abhayam purity of heart ndash sattvasamsrsquouddhih integral congruence of (steadfastness in) wisdom and action - jnana-Yoga-vyavasthitih charity in its widest sense - daanam self-control - damah and sacrifice or yajna (worship) study of scriptures - svaadhyaaya austerity - tapas and uprightness - aarjavam non-violence in thought word and deed - ahimsaa adherence to truth - satyam freedom from anger - akrodhah renunciation - tyaaga tranquility or peace ndash srsquoaantih aversion to slander ndash apaisrsquounam compassion to living beings ndash dayaa bhooteshu uncovetousness - aloluptvam gentleness (soft and sweet in our behavioural attitude towards others) - maardavam modesty - hreeh absence of fickle - mindedness - acaapalam vigour - tejah forgiveness - kshamaa fortitude - dhritih purity in thought word and deed ndash srsquoaucam absence of malice - adrohah absence of pride (humility) ndash na atimaanitaa ndash [16 1 ndash 3] ldquoThe twenty-six values are so arranged that fearlessness comes first as a guide and guarantee and the ground for all the following values Without fearlessness none of other virtues can be gained or maintained or acted upon And humility placed lost to protect and consolidate the twenty-four values that fall in between these two The emphasis is that prosperity and beauty are great virtues which if not controlled and tempered by modesty or humility will not avail The twenty-four values sandwiched by fearlessness and humility have their essence in satya and ahimsa The Truth is that satya and ahimsa grow only through fearlessness and humilityrdquo It is also note-worthy that while Krishna placed (humility - amaanitvam) as the first of the twenty values (virtues) ndash defined as knowledge abhayam (fearlessness) takes the first place in His enumeration of twenty-six values (virtues) ndash characterized as divine virtues All these values (virtues) can be epitomized into seven divine values or qualities ndash renunciation restraint spiritual practice or efforts service to society abiding in God adherence to truth love of fellowmen and forgiveness Of these the first three ndash renunciation restraint and spiritual practice or efforts form the very essence of karma yoga Service to society abiding in God is the very essence of bhakti yoga and truth love and forgiveness arise out of the realization of the divine immortal nature of the self as an amsrsquoa of the Deity ndash designated as the first step is the very essence of jnaana yoga 96 In the context of the discussion above it is perhaps in order to present Krishna‟s Observation on bhakti (devotion) - the principle saadhana and Deity‟s response to such devotion without comments as they are self explanatory ldquoHe who thus knows My divine birth and actions in true light having dropped the body comes not to birth again but comes unto Me (maam eti) O Arjuna Freed from desire fear and anger (total severance of connection from the worldliness as distinct from the world virtue resulting from true knowledge of God ndash veeta raaga bhaya krodhaah) knowing or absorbed in Me as the Supreme (manmayaa) absolutely depending on Me (maam upaasrsquoritaah) purified by the austerity of knowledge (pootaah jnaana tapasaa) many have attained the state of being in and with Me (madbhaavam)rdquo (4 9 10) ldquoO Partha that Supreme Being (sah purushah parah) by whom all this is pervaded (yena sarvam idam tatam) and in whom all creatures abide (yasya antasthaani bhootaani) is attained by one pointed devotion (labhyah ananyayaa bhaktyaa)rdquo- (822) ldquoTo those devotees who think of Me only to the exclusion of

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration

SRIVAISHNAVISM Ivargal Tiruvakku

Wish fulfilled Respect for ones preceptor is imperative and this is emphasised time and again and is demonstrated by God Himself When Krishna studied under

Sandeepani He asked the sage what he wanted as recompense

The sage who had lost his young son wanted the boy to be brought back to life Krishna granted him his wish and restored the boy to life But while the Lord

fulfilled his preceptors wishes it doesnt speak highly of the teacher who sought of the Lord something so worldly as his sons life Here was Lord Krishna capable of giving him moksha And yet the sage did not ask for moksha but

asked for the life of his son thereby proving Lord Krishnas words to Arjuna later on Krishna told Arjuna that those who only sought Him and nothing else were

few and far between

When the Lord came as Rama and was in Mithila to wed Sita Janakas guru narrated to Rama the deeds of Ramas guru Viswamitra As Rama listened to

the narration He was distressed by the fact that Viswamitra had succumbed to the charms of women so easily Would a good preceptor have behaved in this manner

Perhaps the Lord was displeased with His gurus in the Rama and Krishna

avataras He must have wanted instruction from a preceptor worthy of being His preceptor Hence He must have asked Vaishnavite Acharya Manavala Mamunigal

to speak on Nampillais commentary on Nammazhvars Thiruvaimozhi Kidambi Narayanan said

Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam asked Mamunigal to give such a discourse

Srirangam is famous for its many festivals and celebrations All of these were stopped by the Lord for a year until Mamunigal finished his discourse Had the Lord ever before listened so attentively to His story being told He had done so

earlier during the Rama avatara when He heard His sons Lava and Kusa sing the story of His life But there had been a lacuna for Rama was then alone Sita

having been sent away But in Srirangam Lord Ranganatha heard Mamunigal along with His Consort Thus His listening to Mamanuigals discourse was superior to His listening to Lava and Kusas narration
