Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha! Sri Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Saranam! Dyuthima:n -> Va:lmiki while mentioning the qualities, asked Narada “Who is the ‘dyuthima:n”? meaning ‘Who has radiance?’ One has to possess natural radiance. One has to be attractive at once. In his presence the 'thamas,’ nature has to vanish. ‘Dyuthi’ means light. Where there is light there won’t be darkness. It should be present in one’s appearance and nature. When such a person is seen , a feeling of liking (preethi) should come out automatically and the violent nature should diminish. Tha:ra, Va:li’s wife, came to SriRama with anger and emotion to accuse him for killing her husband But as she looked at him, “sa:ntham sama:sa:dya visuddha saththva:”, ‘the ‘tha:mas’ nature in her diminished and the ‘sathvam’ in her rose up. The lady who came to accuse SriRamachandra forgot her initial intensions and started showering praise. This capability in a person is not achievable with just the exterior glow. The sa:thwik nature should shine from one’s within. This enables to perceive ‘jna:na’ and leads to a clear analysis and imparts a favourable attitude towards all. There won’t be any averse feeling towards any. They will be able to influence others with their stength. That was the reason why the cattle, the birds, the wild animals, the illiterate, the rishis, the ra:kshasas and even the va:naras felt extremely happy in SriRamachandra’s divine presence. (Sri Sri Sri Chinna Jeeayar Swamiji always says when we love all beings the love we receive back is so many times multiplied !!) Bhagavan who is para has original radiance that is natural to Him and this glows like His natural ‘jna:na’. Hence Bhagavan is called, ‘the:jasswaru:pa’. He is the One who is providing the light to the Sun and the Moon to illuminate the world. He possesses the ‘jna:na ru:pa the:jas’ and also the ‘a:nanda’ and He is the ‘para:thpara’ who awards these to all the ‘jeevas’. This is the reason for calling Bhagavan as ‘Paramjyo:thihi Swaru:pa’. To be continued... Jaisrimannarayana!
