5) Sadanjana Gireesaaya Nama: Salutations to Lord
,
who resides on the hill known for its
Sath-chith-Aananda
svaroopam ! He is the auspicious colyrium to those
,
who seek His refuge to be blessed with four kinds
of
goals oflife ( Chathurvitha PurushArTams) .
One of the seven hills associated with Lord
Venkatesa is
Anjana giri . SrI AanjanEyar incarnated on
these hills as
the son of Vaayu , the Lord of winds. His
mother was Anjana
Devi , who performed penance on this hill
during TrEthaa yugam
to beget AanjanEyan as her son .The father of
AnjanEyan is
Vaayu Devan , the God of winds .
Anjanam means also colyrium of a special
kind .When this auspicious
anjanam (sadanjanam ) is applied over one's
eyelids , it will empower one to
visualize hidden treasures that are not seeable
through gross eyes .
Swamy Desikan , a great Vaishnavite AchArya
in His monumental
sthOthram known as SrI Dayaa Sathakam salutes the
Lord of AnjanAdhri
as the precious and inestimable treasure named
"Dayaa " :
akinchana nidhim soothim apavarga thrivargayO:
ANJANAADHREESWARA dayaam abhishtoumi niranjanaam
(meaning ): The Lord of Anjanaadhri is like a
precious treasure for
those without any capital. It is the ground on
which Moksham and
other purushArTams grow.That Dayaa guNam of the
Lord of Anjanaa
hills is blemishless.It spreads to everyone
irrespective of their status
in life , gender or educational level .This Dayaa
devi standing in for
the Compassion of the Lord does not need any
anjanam to see Her
and for us to benefit from Her blessings.
Another reason for these hills acquiring the name
"anjana giri" is because they were
brought by VAyu bhagavaan, blown by his force, in
the contest with Adisesha described
earlier, says the BrahmaNda Purana.
