This stanza must be read in conjunction with the previous stanza.

 

manmatha indicates the sign of 'matsya' - fish in his flag. He is therefore known as mInakEtana.  Our manas is as fickle or irresolute as a fish. The manas is always engrossed in some vishaya or the other. manmatha is son of KR^iShNa and rukmiNi and he was called pradyumna. rukmi was the brother of rukmiNi. pradyumna married rukmavati (daughter of rukmi -avatAra of rati dEvi) and obtained a son called aniruddha. This is indeed mInakEtana tanaya - aniruddha as referred here.

 

Apart from mukhya prANa dEvaru, there are 49 other marut-s as listed below:-

 

1      prANa                         17    udvaha            33    kIla

5      samAna                        21    shvAsa           37    jaDa

6      ahaMkArika prANa     22    nala                38    maMDUka

16    shaMyu                        32    saMvartaka    48    piMga

                                                                         49    kaMpana

 

Among them - praNa, apAna, vyAna, udAna and samAna are very important from the point that mukhya prANa pervades in them does the paMchakOsha vyApAra refer HKAS_04-19 & 20 and provokes the tanmAtra-s related to the paMchabhUta-s as related below.

paMchamahAbhUta                 paMchatanmAtra

pR^ithvi (Earth)                        gaMdha  (aroma)

appu (Water)                            rasa (taste)

tEjas (Fire)                               rUpa (sight)     

vAyu (Air)                                spaRsha (touch)

AkAsh (Sky)                            shabda (hear)  

 

JagannAtha dAsa indicates 49 marut-s (fifty minus one) as 'EkOna paMchAshat'

 

R^idra gaNa  consists of eleven R^idra-s including mahAR^idra who is foremost in the order.

 

aShTavasu-s - being eight in numbers, here agni is the abhimAni dEvata for xatriya-s,

is the foremost followed by the rest as listed here 1)agni, 2)pR^ithivi, 3)vAyu, 4)aMtarixa, 5)Aditya, 6)dyau, 7)chaMdrama, 8)naxatra

 

mEnaka is the mAnasa putri of dEvata-s and is she is consort of himavaMta. She was gifted with a son - mainAka and pARvati. Thus mEnakAtmaje - pARvati i.e. daughter of mEnaka. pARvati's son is gaNapati - known to be vighnahaRta, siddhidAyaka. Thus mEnakAtmaja kuvara is gaNapati.

 

vishvaksEna dEvata is vAyu putra.

 

kubEra is dhanAdipati and is the security guard at the North.

 

In summary, aniruddha (manmatha putra), 49 marut-s, 10 R^idra-s (mahAR^idra excluded), 7 vasu-s (agni excluded), gaNapati (pARvati putra), vishvaksEna (vAyu putra), kubEra (dhanAdipati) are the abhimAni dEvata-s in vaishya-s.

 

JagannAtha dAsa opines that Pradyumna ParamAtma is the niyAmaka for them for these above dEvata-s.
