From the Bhakti List Archives
• March 26, 2002
Dear Sri VaradarAja BhakthAs: Today , adiyEn will cover the 18th slOkam of SrI VaradarAja Sthavam dealing with the celebration of Vibahava , archA and antharyAmi states of the Lord ( In the previous two slOkams , KurEsar focused on the Para and VyUha forms Of Lord VaradarAjan ): ParO yaa VyuhO vaa Vibhava utha vaa-archAvataraNa: Bhavan vaantharyAmee Vara-Varadha! yO yO bhavasi vai sa sa Thvam sann eisaan varaguNaguNAn bhibrath akhilAn bhajadhbhyO bhAsyEvam sathatham itharEbhya: thu itaraTA -- 18th slOkam of SrI VaradarAja Sthavam (meaning): Oh Lord VaradarAjA granting the best of boons ! You might take on the Para VaasudEavA form seen in SrI Vaikuntam or the VyUha form or Vibhava form like Raama and KrishNA or the ArchA form seen at dhivya dEsams or the antharyAmi form found inside the heart lotus of the chEthanams . In every one of these Five forms , Oh VaradarAjA , You adopt the appropriate auspicious guNams befitting that state and bless Your BhakthAs. Those who are not fortunate to have the bhAgyam of closeness with You do not get blessed to see the glories of Your svaroopam and do not become beneficiaries of experiencing Your anantha kalyANa guNams. This is indeed a pity ! Prose order Meaning ******************* Vara Varadha! = Oh Lord granting the choice boons! Thvam Para vaa = Whether YOu are in the ParA form as Para VaasudEvan in SrI Vaikuntam VyUha Vaa = or in the VyUhA state( as VaasudEVa- SanakarshaNAdhi VyUha states at the milky ocean ) utha Vibhava Bhavan vaa = or in Vibhavaa states like RaamA or KrishNA archAvatharaNa Bhavan vaa = or as ArchA Moorthy in SrIrangam , ThiruvEngadam et al antharyAmI vaa = or in the state of indweller in the hearts of all Ya: Ya: Bhavasi vai = or whatever other states You exist in sa: sa: sann = staying in those appropriate forms EisAn = having the unique aspects of Yours as Isvaran akhilAn vara guNAn bhibhrath = You display all of Your auspicious guNams. Bhajathbhya: bhAsi = You shine for those , who have sought refuge in You . itharEbhay: thu = For all the others however , who do not have the good fortune to be Your dear ones. itharathA asi = You stay as non entity (Jata Brahmam). In the earlier slOkams , KurEsar established that Lord VaradarAjan is anantha kalyANa guNa visishtan ( Possessor of limitless auspicous attributes). Then, he proceeded to explain that Para VaasudEvan alone has the PoorNa shADguNyam ( having the complete six pradhAna guNams ) and the VyUha Moorthys have two specific guNams each to take care of their specific duties. Next , KurEsar pointed out that the Lord in His vibhava avathArams possesses all six guNams. Here, KurEsar asserts that even in antharyAmi and archA states , the Lord has all the six pradhAna guNams. Thus , KurEsar instructs us that Lord VaradarAjan has PoorNa ShADguNyam in all of the five states ranging from ParA to antharyAmi state. He concludes by saying that for the Bhagavath dhvEshis and sinners , this ShAdguNya paripoorNathvam will not be apparent following the aruLiccheyalkaLs of number of AzhwArs like Swamy NammazwAr and Thirumazhisai AzhwAr. additional comments : ******************** In this 17th slOkam , KurEsar is raptourous over the reflection on the souseelya guNam of Lord VaradarAjan which makes Him hide His Vara GuNa GaNams and mingle with every one equally in His avathArams. In the 18th slOkam , KurEsar links the archai and antharyAmi states of Lord VaradarAjan with His Para , VyUha and VIbhava forms. He states that Lord's PradhAna GuNams are transparent to those , who seek refuge at His Thiruvadi and will be invisible to those , who do not seek His protection.
