Dear Sri Krishana :

 

This is a celebration of BhUvarAha Tathtvam

and sacerdeness of Earth ( Thiru MaNN) .

 

The short meaning of the Veda Manthram is :

 

Oh Sacred Earth ! You have been lifted up by Varaha Krishna with 100 arms

.. Thou art the wish yielding KamadhEnu ,

Holder of Vasus (Iswaryam) and bearer of the world .

Oh Sacred Earth ! Please destroy paapams done by me

thru pursuit of acts prohibited by SaasthrAs .Through

your intervention in the destruction of my sins , May I live

the Veda prAyam of one hundred years ! Oh Sacred Earth !

please grant me strength ( to perform Vaidhika Karmaas) since

every thing is established in You .

Harihi Aum:

It would be nice if someone can translate this slokam into English for clear understanding.

Thanks
