mahattinoLu = in extremely big sized objects and bigger than those we know

ippa = He exists with sUxma rupa in svarUpa dEha & mahadrUpa in sthUla dEha, so also pervades inside BrahmaMDa beyond BrahmaMDa, until the end of the space which we cannot see,

ghana = in big things

ParamAtma pervades in the extremely small atom size particles so also in large objects too. There is nothing which can be made smaller than His size. We know that the atom is the smallest particle of any element. But ParamAtma pervades even in the sub-atomic particles too. The size of the jIva in all i.e. from Brahma until the blade of grass is similar to the sub-atomic particles. If He can exist in His aMtaRyAmi rUpa in and be a Regulator of the jIva then we can imagine His powers. Similarly, He pervades in huge mountains, large oceans, entire brahmAMDa and beyond till the end avyAkR^itAkAsha. He envelopes Himself in these and thus pervades everywhere. This shows His capacity to do the impossible and awesome tasks by pervading in the largest objects and in the tiniest thing too.

 

There is a quote from PuraMdara dAsa here:- “kariyu kannadiyoLagippateradi nInu ennoLage aDagippe” – meaning -  An elephant is a large size animal but we can see its image in the mirror.

 

A tree is very large, but the life giving capability of the same tree is compacted in the seed. He thus has the astounding capability to compress large size entities into a small size particle.

 

The sand particle is very small but it sinks in water, whereas a log of wood is very large but it floats on water. Even a boat made by using many logs of wood still floats on water. Even the person sitting in the boat is in fact floating on water.

 

Thus ParamAtma has the capability to sink the extremely small size jIva into the ocean of this world and by giving them this sthUla dEha and makes them do sAdhana and float around this world and lead them to salvation. This astonishing strength ParamAtma is understood by learned people as “mAya”, which is infact the free will of ParamAtma. We are either fettered to or freed from this saMsAra only by His free will.

 

JagannAtha dAsa pays obeisance to this power of ParamAtma.

 

The capability of ParamAtma to destroy the troublesome demons or daitya-s or His enemies is explained by JagannAtha dAsa by a common example.

 

When we pound paddy in a large mortar with a large pestle, the bran/fibre gets separated and we obtain only the good clean grains. Similary for the anAdi jIva, ParamAtma provides the liMga dEha, aniruddha sharIra, and sthUla dEha and fetters them with His mAya and keeps them in this world. Destroying the sthUla dEha by death and giving it many janma-s in 84 lacs of species, gets them into the cycle of this world and finally destroys the aniruddha dEha and ultimately liMga dEha bhaMga and gets us rid of of our kaRma-s.

 

Please refer to archives in Dvaita List for a series of discussions by members (Murthy Navarathna, Meera Tadipatri, Sukumar S C, NAPS Rao, Guru Prasad, Shrisha Rao, Kesava Tadipatri, Krishna K) who have substantially contributed to the debate on liMga dEha bhaMga resulting from the posting of HKAS_01-04 maMgaLAcharaNa saMdhi

 

Just as only the grain remains after we pound paddy, similarly all the layers of coverings of are destroyed in this saMsAra (mortar) by the free will (pestle) of the Lord and the kaRma-s draw to a close. He then bestows happiness to the jIva-s. Even powerful daitya-s can do nothing in spite of their resentment of His strength.

 

Please also refer Dvaita list archives for a beautiful explanation on this verse by Shri G R R Rao in his posting - Margashira MAsa Shukla PakSha (13th December to 24th December)
