Dear BhakthAs :
Today adiyEn will cover the last section of
the most recent KaalakshEpam highlights
of Srimath Azhagiya Singar ( slOkams 85) covering
the conversation between Mahaa RaaNi Sumathy and
her husband , VivEka Mahaa Raajan .
The power of SaraNAgathy and its unfailing nature is
explained by the Magaa Raajaa in this moving 85th slOkam ,
which is dealt extensively in Swamy Desikan's AbhayapradhAna
chillaRai rahasyam :
dheenO dhrupyathu vaaparAdhyathu param vyAvartathAm vaa taha-
srAthavya: SaraNAgatha: sakanatha: sadhbhisyaTA sTApyathE
ViswAmithra kapOtha Raaghava Raghu vyOmAdhvagaprEyasee
naalijanga Bruhaspathi prabrudhibhiranvEsha ghaNdApaTa:
(Meaning ): If we perform SaraNAgathy , the powerful one (SakthimAn)
will protect . There is no dictum that this one will be protected and
that one will be abandoned . All are eligible to perform SaraNAgathy
and recieve the Lord's abufraham of protection .The one who wishes
to gain freedom from SamsAram immediately ( AarTa Prapannan ) or
the one who wishes to receive mOksham at the end of their assigned
life here ( Dhruptha Prapannan) or the one who has accumulated
terrins or whoever he or she is can seek BhagavAn's protection and
perfrom SaraNAgathy . This is Saasthram and this is AchAram ( way of
life ) as enacted by Sage ViswAmithra , the dove , Raamachandra ,
KIng Raghu ( the ancestor of the Lord Raamachandra) , Deva pathnis ,
Naalijangan , Bruhaspathy and all other reverd ones in the history of
SaraNAgathy Saasthram .Throughbtheir aachAram and anushtAnam ,
the royal road of SaraNAgathy is illumined and maintained for us
to travel to Srivaikuntam and serve the Lord there without returning
to the SamsAric world ever again .
(Comments) : Swamy Desikan states here that every one is eligible
to perfrom SaraNAgathy anushtAnam to recieve the protection of
the powerful and compassionate Lord . He cites the stories of
Sages , Kings, animals that proved the power of SaraNAgathy .
First Swamy Desikan cites the Moola Purushar for His gothram :
Sage ViswAmithrar . Swamy belonged to ViswAmithra gOthram .
The Thrisangu Svargam incident is waht Swamy Desikan has in mind
here. Next , he cites the KapOtha vrutthAntham , where a female dove
offered its body as food and threw itself into fire to satisfy the hunger of
the hunter and his family ;this is followed by salutation to the magnificent
VibhIshaNa ,Naalijanga , Bruhaspathy and other SaraNAgahthys to illustrate
the varieties of Jeevans , who were beneficiaries of the Lord's mervy
through their SaraNAgathys .
