Sri Pillai Lokacharya's Mumukshuppadi - 095

[Guest guest]

Sri: | Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

 

Sutra 95:

Narayana is taken as ayana for the nAras.

 

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:

The meaning of the nArAyana term is now beginning to be explained.

 

There are two ways to derive the meaning out of the nArAyaNa nAma. Two kinds of

combinations (samAsa) can be used to build this term: tatpurusha samAsa and

bahuvreehi

samAsa. "nArANAm ayanam - nArAyaNa:" is tatpurusha samAsa. "nArA: ayanam yasya

sa:" is bahuvrIhi samAsa. Here it is the tatpurusha samAsa that is used to

define the nArAyaNa term and as such it is said that nArAyaNa means the ayana

for nAras.

 

Jai Sriman Narayana | adiyEn madhurakavi dAsan | TCA Venkatesan
