Manojavah –Fleet as the mind is the Lord’s movement. He is anxious to run and reach the devotee to remove his suffering and ignorance. All-pervading is the lord, thus he is faster than all those who run after him – and wherever they reach, the supreme, He, in the form of existence, is already there. 691 Teerthakarah –“The Teacher of the Teerthas” The term, Teertha” means vidyaas. Sree Narayana is the author of the Vidyaa, or auxiliary Sciences Therefore, “One Who is the most ancient Teacher of all Vidyaas and Tantras.” 692 Vasuretaah –“He Whose Essence is Golden.” In the beginning of Creation were the primeval waters Into this One Ocean the Lord dropped His Essence and it became a Golden Egg from which Brahmaa, the Creator, first arose Thus Lord, as the womb of all Creation is mentioned in the Puranas as “Hiranyagarbha,” the Golden Womb 693 Vasupradah –“The Free-Giver of Wealth” Inn this context, Vasu means “Worldly-Wealth”- money, property, grains, possessions, progeny Lord Vishnu who nourishes and maintains all beings with the wealth of His consort, Sree Laksmi, distributes and patronises His devotees very liberally 694. Vasupradah -Again, the same term as we read above, but here if means “The Giver of Salvation” Liberation (Moksa) is the greatest wealth-whom He chooses, Moksha is gained by him alone. 695. Vaasudevah –“The son of Vasudeva,” Lord Krishna. Or “One Who is Vaasu and Deva” “Vaasu” means “One who dwells in all creatures as their ego-centric individuality (Jeeva-raopa).” ‘Deva' means “One who revels” Therefore, this name for Lord Krishna has the appropriate meaning “One who revels in every living creature as the Jeeva-entity in each”. 696 Vasuh –“The Refuge for all.” The One Who dwells within, veiled behind Maayaa, the mind The mind projects this play of things, beings, emotions and thoughts. The world is the shadow-show round the Pure Consciousness Lord declares in Geeta: “I am the beginning, the middle and also the end of all beings.” Thus He alone is the Refuge, for there is no other existence. “All have emerged out from Me, exist in Me and must come back to Me.” 697. Vasumanaah -One who is attentive to, and, therefore, concerned with every object and being in this world: “Omnipresent.” 698. Havih –“The Oblation.” That which we offer unto Him is also permeated by Him-there is nothing other than He, Himself, the same everywhere, in all places, at all times. In Geeta, Lord insists that the “oblations” are nothing but Brahman.” http://groups.msn.com/ All new Mail "The new Interface is stunning in its simplicity and ease of use." - PC Magazine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
