NamO VenkatEsAya 

Dear BhakthAs of the Lord of Saptha Giri :

Let us reflect on the Fifth NaamA of 
SrI Venkatesa AshtOttharam !

The First Ten NaamAs of Sri VenkatEsa AshtOttharam
**************************************************** 

1. (PraNavam) SrI VenkatEsAya nama:>
2. (PraNavam) SrivAsAya nama:
3. (PraNavam) LakshmI PathayE nama:
4. (Pranavam) anAmayAya nama:

5. (PraNavam) amruthAmsAya nama:
****************************** 
6. (Pranavam) Jagadh-vandhyAya nama:
7. (PraNavam) GovindhAya nama:
8. (PraNavam) SaasvathAya nama:
9. (PraNavam) PrabhavE nama: 
10.(Pranavam) SEshAdhri-nilayAya nama:

The Fifth Naamam : Meaning
****************************
"(PraNavam) amruthAmsAya nama: = OUR LORD IS
THE NECTAR-RAYED MOON in cooling us
from the scorching heat of samsAram
and rejuvenating us from the death of
kaivalyam. 

This is also an echo of the 284th naamam of SrI VishNu
Sahasra nAmam ( amrutha-amsu-udhbhavAya nama:).
The Moon is recognized as taking its birth from
the mind of the MahA Purushan in Purusha Sooktham
( ChandramA ManasO Jaatha:). Therefore , Moon has 
acquired the most benovolent attributes of BhagavAn
such as Taapa samanam and mrutha sanjeevanam ( banishing
of the heat of samsAram and rejuvenation from the life
without Bhagavathanubhavam through the KaivalyAnubhavam).

Additional comments
********************
Our Lord is Amrutha-maya amsu. He feeds us with 
the enjoyment of the most nourishing nectar of 
His guNAnubhavam. This caring and nourishing 
quality of the Lord arising from His dayA guNam
is recognized by the 819th nAmam of SrI VishNu
Sahasra Naamam : amruthAsAya nama:

This amrutha-amsan feeds us with the amrutham of
ParipoorNa BrahmAnubhavam as amruthAsan as celebrated 
in Taitthiriya Upanishad Aanandhavalli Vaakyams 
( Sa yEkO BrahmaNa aanandha:, rasam hyEvAyam laBdhvA 
aanandhI bhavathi). When the Nectar-rayed Moon of our
Lord (amruthAmsu) feeds us with those nectar rays
(Bhagavath GuNAnubhavam), the jeevan rises up from his 
sarIram , enters the 101st naadi with the help of
those nectar rays of the Lord and attains the Supreme 
Brahman and becomes manifest in his own true nature
as revealed by the ChAndhOgya Upanishad passage(8.12.2):

"yEvam yeva yEsha samprasAdhA asmAth sarIrAth samutthAya 
Param JyOthi upasampadhya svEna roopENa abhinishpadhyathE " 

That is the power of the amrutha kiranam of the Moon on top
of Venkata Giri that is celebrated through this Fifth nAmam
of SrI VenkatEsa AshtOtthara Satham .

(PraNavam ) NamO VenkatEsAya ,
(PraNavam) amruthAmsAya nama:
