Dear Sri Devotees
of SrI
Hayagreeva Para Brahmam
:

of 60 and added some comments .We will study
the vaibhavam behind the
names of next six years now.
It is still not too late
to pledge your support nityArAdhanams at Ahobila MaTham in the context of the
upcoming
82nd Thirunakshatram of
Srimad
Azhagiya Singar .
Please contact me for details .
We will cover
now SevA Swamiy's tribute to Swamy Desikan thru His Akashya AarAdhanam (
Years 19-24) .
19th
SlOkam/Year/Paarthiva:
Paarthiva-stuti vidhAyinA tatA
Paarthivancha vaSAnugruhNhatA
PaathivAsraya sukham nigruNhatA
VedamouLi guruNA dhrutA
vayam
(Meaning): He eulogized the Emperor
Raaman (Thru Sri Raghuveera Gadhyam).
He blessed a king thru His upadEsam
( SubhAshita Neeveeand Tattva sandRsam
) . He rejected the position offered by a King and the comforts arising from
Such a life ( rejection of the offer to be the court VidhvAn of the Vijaya
Nagara Kings thru VidhyAraNyar and His rejection thru His VairAghya
Panchakam). We have indeed been saved from SamsAric bheeti by seeking the
protection of the sacred feet of this great AchAryan ( NigamAntha MahA Desikan).
20th slOkam/Year/Vyaya
(avyaya)
avyayO hi BhagavAn ramAdhava:
savyasAchihitagrun
nirantaram
dhivya
vaakbhirabhirakshateeha na:
tAdhrusO NigamamouLi
Desika:
(Meaning): Sriya: Pathi , our Lord is
sampoorNan and is avAptha samasta Kaaman ( without want of any thing ).He is
the well wisher for Arjuna , who was skilled in using both his hands for
archery ( savyasAchi) in battles . Our Lord saved Arjuna from his confusions
about his kshatriya dharmam thru the
UpadEsam of GitA . Swamy Desikan is of the same status to adiyEn just like
Lord KrishNaa was to Arjuna .
21st
SlOkam/Year/Sarvajith
Sarvajith jagati kOapi na dhrushta:
VedamouLi gurumantarA
Prabhum
Sarvajith bhavathy kOapi manushya:
Tasya
paadhayugasEvanOtsukha:
(Meaning): Sarvajith is the One who
has won over all . Sevaa Swami states that there is no one besides Swamy
Desikan , who can be recognized as Sarvajith( winner of all) . Even if it is
so , those who have sought the sacred feet of Swamy Desikan for protection can
readily become a Sarvajith . The Desika Bhakti of Sevaa Swamigal and his Mahaa
Viswasam in Swamy Desikan is indeed
exceptional and paramount .
22nd
SlOkam/Year/SarvadhAri
kudhAree VarAha: gujArir
vidhAree
sukUrmO HanUmAn
sakOPOtridhAree
Param
SankhachakradhidhAree hatAri:
SadhAm
VedachUDAgurus-sarvadhAree
(Meaning): Lord VarAha PerumAL
supported BhUmi DEvi on His tusk .In KrishNAvatAram , He destroyed the son of
BhUmi ( NarakAsuran) . He is borne by Garudan ,His Vaahanam.In a similar manner,
the tortoise ( Koormam
bearing Mandara mountain ) ,HanumAn bearing sanjeevi parvatam)
and the cowherd
(GopAlan holding Govardhana giri) -all of them supported
the mountains .
Inspite of it , the Lord who bears the disc and the conch uses the
weapons that He bears to destroy the enemies of His bhaktAs.
Swamy Desikan is the only
One,who bears every thing (SarvadhAri)
for the protection of the
SaatvikAs . The play
with the words kutAri , VitAri, Sankha ChakradhAri , HatAri and connecting
them thematically to SarvadhAri displays the poetic skills and AchArya Bhakti of
Sevaa
Swami.

dhUras-sthitO
ViSaalaguNa sEvati:
manasi VedachUDA guru:
(Meaning): Our Swamy Desikan destroyed
the enemies ( Para matha
Vaadhin's doctrines). He composed a Sri Sookti revered as "VirOdha ParihAram "
to clear our confusions about the three rahasyams. He was radiant as PaNDita
SrEshtar in the entire world . He did not have even an iota of ill will
towards anyone. He had all the celebrated Aatma guNams . This is our Swamy
!

vividha vikruti jushtE prAkrutEchaiva lOkE
praklruti purushabhEdhA
Jn~AnamOhE samittE
prakruti mupakatO mE sAttvikeem DesikEndra:
(Meaning): In this slOkam about
Vikruti ,
SevA SwamigaL contrasts Swamy Desikan
as the opposite of the people marked
by the blemishes of Vikruti .
Among the assembly of scholars , who
undergo all kinds of transformations (Vikruti) and among the common folk , who
do not even have the rudiments of Jn~Anam about the differences between
Prakruti (
ChEtanAchEtanams) and Purushan ( Iswaran) , Swamy stands in total contrast as
the clear comprehender of the doctrines behind the Tattva Trayams (
Prakruti,Jeevan and Iswaran).
