SrI :

 

Dear BhakthAs of SrI Lakshmi Nrusimhan :

 

This slOkam is recited to get freedom from SamsAric Sorrows :

 

AapannArtthi prasamana vidhau bhaddha-dheekshasya VishNO:

Aachakyus ThvAm priya-sahachareem aikamatyOpapannAm

PrAthurbhAvair-api sama tanu: PrAdhvam anveeyasE Thvam

dhUrOthkshipthair-iva madhurathA dhugdharsEs-tarangai:

 

( Meaning according to Dr. M.NarasimhAchAry ):

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

You are One with Lord VishNu in thought and action .You follow

Him in all His manifestations assuming identical forms.This is like

sweetness that is inseperably present in the waves of the milky ocean .

 

(Meaning according to Vaikunta Vaasi Villivalam NaarAyaNAcchAr Swamy ) :

********************************************************************************\

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

The knowledgable ones describe You as the dearest friend and co-worker of

EmperumAn , who has taken a vow to banish the sorrows of those buffeted by

the SamsAric sorrows . It is because of this assistance to the Lord ,You

take an appropriate form and accompany Your Lord in every one of

His avathArams. In this matter , You are like the waves of the Milky Ocean ,

which retain their sweetness independent of the distance they travel to reach

the shore .

 

(Expanded meaning according to Vaikunta Vaasi Sri V.N.SrIrAma DesikAchAr ) :

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

Oh MahA Devi ! Your Lord has taken a vow (Vratha dheekshai) , (i-e) .,

to quench the sorrow of anyone , who experiences the SamsAric sorrows .

For Him , this act is like a Yaagam , where a dheekshai is taken . It is

required that

one who performs any Yag~nam has to have his wife (SahadharmachAriNi)

next to him during the performance of that Yag~nam . As the dearest consort of

Your Lord and as One , who has taken the sankalpam with Him to remove

the sorrows of the ChEthanams , You contribute immensely to the successful

completion of this Yag~nam . If You were not next to Him , Your Lord could not

perform this Yag~nam . VedAs reveal this tatthvam .

 

Your Lord takes on the avathArams of Raama and KrishNa et al . At all those

times ,

You accompany Your Lord as SithA , RukmaNi et al . You assist Your Lord to

perform

His duties of protection ( dharma samrakshaNam) . You never ever leave His side

..

The waves of the Milky Ocean travel a long distance to the shore , where DEvAs

stay and pray . Independent of the huge distance these waves travel , the

sweetness

associated with those waves does not leave them and is always present .

Similarly ,

When Your Lord leaves the distant Sri Vaikuntham to descend to this Karma BhUmi

to carry out His missions of any particular avathAram , You take on an

appropriate

avathAram and assist Him with an identical mind set . The sweetness will not

stand

disassociated from the Milky ocean under any circumstance .

 

Additional Observations on the passages of the 10th slOkam of SrI Sthuthi

********************************************************************************\

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

1) " VishNu: Aapanna Aarthi prasamana vidhou bhaddha dheeksha: "

Your Lord VishNu has taken a vow to quench the heat of sorrows

( Prasamana vidhi) for those who experience danger (Aapath)

which in turn leads to suffering ( Aarthi) . His vow is " Aapanna Aarthi

Prasamanam " ( Coming to the rescue of those bhakthAs , who are in

distress due to the dangers to which they are exposed like GajEndhran) .

 

2) VishNO: ThvAm iykamathya upapannAm Priya-sahachareem Aachakyu: The VedAs

reveal that the Lord recognizes You as the dear dharma Pathni ( fellow observer

of

Dharmam as His divine consort ) and as One who has identical views on Bhaktha

rakshaNam . " Ikamathya upapannAm means " with unison of thought .

 

3) Thvam dhUra uthkshiptha dhugdharASE: tarangai : madhurathA iva (asi ):

Oh Sri DEvi ! You are like the persisting sweetness of the waves of the milky

Ocean , which started from a very long distance to reach the shore . During all

that long passage to the shore , the waves of the milky ocean never got

disassociated from their intrinsic sweetness .

 

4) " Thvam PrAthurbhAvai: api sama tanu: prAdhvam anveeyasE " :

Oh SrI DEvi ! You follow Your Lord in all His avathArams with an appropriate

form ( " Bhagavan NaarAyaNa abhimatha roopa guNa vibhava aiswarya

SeelAdhi anavadhikAthisaya asankyEya KalyANa gunA ghaNAm

PadhmAvanAlayAm Bhagavatheem " in AchArya RaamAnujA's words).

 

(5) She is anugrahamayee in Her own rights . She is dhurgathi nAsinyai .

She is SarvArthi samudhra pariSOshiNyai ( One who dries up the ocean of

dukkhams ) . She is SrEyasAm nidhi ( Ocean of all MangaLams) . She is

bhava bhanga apahariNee ( destroyer of the bheethi of samsAram ).

She is dhrushtAdhrushta phala pradhai ( One who grants seen and unseen

boons ). She is Aasritha mAnadhai . She and Her Lord share these attributes

and hence are of unified thought ( ikamathyam) .

 

6) The 24th slOkam of Sri Lakshmi Sahasram reveals Sri DEvi's unique

contribution for " AapannArthi prasamanam " ( Quenching the sorrows of

those in dangerous situations) . The meaning of this slOkam as given by

Sri NavalpAkkam KaNNan Swamy is : " Externally , the sound , light ,

taste , fragrance and similar vishayams land us in danger . Internally ,

desire , anger and others expose us to additional dangers . BrahmA and other

DevathAs can not come to our rescue against these dangers . PerumAl can save

us but He can not be accessed by sinners like us through His AarAdhanam

requiring niyamam. For those of us exposed to many such dangers and suffer ,

Oh Lakshmi , You alone are our refuge . Through Your katAksham

(glances) alone , You quench the heat of SamsAric sufferings " .
