[Guest guest]

SrI :

 

Dear BhakthAs of SrI Lakshmi Nrusimhan :

 

The 21st slOkam is recited for curing all physical and mental

diseases through the power of PirAtti's nectarine KaDAkshams :

 

SaanuprAsa-prakaDitha-dayai: saandhra-Vaathsalya-dhigdhai:

AmBha ! snigdhair amruthalaharee-labdha-saBrahmacharyai:

gharmE taapathraya-virachithE gADataptham kshaNam maamm

Aakinchanya-glapitham anagair AardhrayETA: kaDakshai:

 

The key passage if this slOkam is : " amrutha-laharee kaDAkshai:

Aakinchanya glapitham maamm kshaNam AardhrEyaTA: " ( Oh Mother !

With Your glances laden with the flow of life-giving nectar , please cool

this defenseless one suffering from the scorching samsAric taapams) .

Meaning according to Professor M.Narasimhachary

*****************************************************************

Mother ! adiyEn is scorched by the summer (heat) of the three afflictions .

Kindly cool me with Your gracious , benign , nectarine side glances .

 

Meaning according to Villivalam Sri Narayanachar Swamy

***************************************************************************

Oh My Mother ! adiyEn is suffering intensely from the fierce heat of

the three afflictions (Taapams) and they are shrivelling me up . May Thou

with Your side glances -- that are like a flood of rejuvenating nectar-- cool me

for a second . May those blemishless , cooling and dayaa-laden glances of

Yours restore me from my state of suffering from the AdhyAthmika ,

Aadhibhoudhika and Aadhidhaivatham taapams !

 

Additional observations on this slOkam ssages :

***************************************************************

Those compassionate side glances of Yours are not some phenemenon

that happens once in agreat while and then are turned off . On the contrary ,

those Dayaa-laden glances fall on the suffering devotees ever so frequently

(Saanupraasa prakaDitha dayaa ) . They are full of deep affection ( saandhra

vaathsalya dhigdhai: ) ; those side glances display friendship (Snigdhai :

sahitham) ; they destroy the sins of those on whom they fall ( anagai: ) ;

they have close relationship to the flood of nectar ( amrutha laharee labdha

saBrahmacharyai: ) . Such celebrated KaDakshams are the cure for banishing

the heat of the three tApams . For adiyEn suffering from exposure to these

tApa thrayams , Your kaDakshams will have the power of a restoring balm .

Oh Mother ! adiyEn prays for Your rejuvenating glances to fall on me

even for the duration of a second to save me from these unbearable

sufferings .

 

Three tApams :

******************

1. AadhyAthmikanm : These deal with the diseases pertaining to the body

( Head ache , flu et al) and the mind ( kaamam , krOdham , bhayam et al ).

 

2. AadhiBhoudhikam : These are dangers arising from animals , birds and humans .

 

3. Aadhidhaivikam : Dangers from calamities caused by nature ( thunder storm ,

hurricane , Earth Quake et al ) .

 

Swamy Desikan's Appeal :

***************************************

AmBha! adiyEn is suffering in this unbearable heat of the tApa thrayams

( tApa thraya virachithE gharmE gADa taptham Maam) . adiyEn has no other

recourse ( Aakinchanyam) than You . adiyEn has shrivelled up from these

sufferings ( glapitham Maamm) . Please cool adiyEn from this insufferable

wave of flames even for a second by casting Your side glances on me

( glapitham Maamm kshaNam AardhrEyathA : ) .
