restore Bhagavath Saastrams . Hre had a divine destiny
( Dhaiveem sampadham).He incarnated to
help men of lost souls and feeble understanding ( nashtAtmanO alpa buddhya: ).
They are " AasApAsa satair
BhaddhA:" ( bound by hundreds of
fetters of hopes) and given over to desire and anger ( Kaama krOdha
ParAyaNA:). These demonic types abandon the injunctions of the
SaastrAs
laid down by the Lord.Swamy Desikan
incarnated to remind one of the Lord's command to have SaastrAs as one's
compass for determining what should be done and what should be avoided and He
practised this Saaastraic way of life for our benefit and uplifted us from our
tendency to be
