Thiruvashtakshara Maha Mantra

My understanding of this mantra, with Narayana as main divine form, is this: "Narayana means the personification of all the potentials (inner power) we have. When associated with Lakshmi, the goal, potentials are put in effective and productive use. Probably, Vaishnavites aim at harnessing this power of theirs in achieving both the worldly and spiritual goals, as they chant this. It would be highly beneficial when one chants this mantra with this understanding, is what I believe.

 

Regarding Acharya or the guru, I feel that the entire world is one's guru. While a guru gives you a direction, it is only you who can realise the essence of this traditional wisdom. No one is required to teach you this, this is all self evolution with the facts available around.

 

Good luck

Sorry but that's not what Narayana means. You must be an Advitin. I'd rather a representative of a srivaishna sadacharya speak.

Thanks nevertheless
