. Oh divine mother how a person with little KNOWLEDGE can start chanting Praising you. Your place of

living are HIS Vakshsthalam & lotus field. You came out of Parkadal (SHIRA SAHARAM) & as SeethaG

you came out of Yagna salai. Thus un like My Lord Sriman Narayanan you never under gone womb

living(GARBA VASAM) and you appeared(avataram) in this world. If we look /notice your greatness &

Keerti I just don’t understand How a a person with little knowledge(STHOKA PRAGJNAN) can start

chanting Praising you?

Oh Perum Devi! I engage in praising You. Is it proper for me to evaluate Your vaibhavams? How lofty

is Your place of birth How loftyi s Your chosen places of residence? How immense is the magnitude of

Your wealth?How great are Your auspicious Gunams? How can adiyen think of coming to termswith

them all and venture to sing in praise of Your unlimited Vaibhavam? (BHUMA)You took Your

avatharam first in the Milky Ocean and then appeared (AAVIRBHAVAM)in the Yaaga Saalai of King

Janaka at Mitilapuri. In both these manifestations,You were self-manifest and did not have to endure

garbha Vaasam like Your husbandin Raama-Krishna avatharams

Contd

. One place of your residence, the Lotus pond Known for its natural fragrance and purity. The other

place of residence of yours isthe sacred chest of Your Lord. There is no one who can claim to have

those lofty stanams (places of residence). All the wealths of this world (LEELA VIBHUTI)and the

Supreme abode (Nithya Vibhuti / Sri Vaikuntam) are under Your rulership.

….

Your anantha Kalynaa gunams are beyond anyanyone's grasp. Each of these many

gunams is difficult to comprehend and describe. Thus in every aspect, You’r matchLess.

Swamy Vedanta Desikan identifies himself as a sthoka Prajgnan” or a person of limited

intellect. Sthoka means little or small. Prajgna means intuitive wisdom It

is customary for great Acharyans to acknowledge their disqualifications when they engage in sthuthis

about Bhagavan and His Devi, Maha Lakshmi. .

starts chanting praise( stuti) {to attain all the better things }this world start noticing their effort & acknowledge their bakthi and

start praising them. These things happen because of you, their bakthi towards you Devi. Although I a person with limited

intellect having any other go except you thiruvadi Devi , trying to the job of chanting slokams upon you, it ‘s an

impossible/uphill task ; I’m still trying I certainly believe you will make me do the job of praising you by your benign grace .

The world will take notice about this & I will be celebrated for this effort. There is no doubt about this.

Who don’t want to prostrate on your Thiruvadi(feet) ( charanagati) , to perform this kainkaryam( devoted duty) and seek all

the better things?like wise I’m also trying to this. Although I don’t have the ability to sthothram(chanting praise) you but the

desire* to do so will see through it and I will get all the better things.

[blue]*[u]Compare[/u] In His Vishnu sahasranama Vyakyanam Varadhachari sadagopan swami ( sadagopan .org)mentions

about a little kid goes to his mother & demands to have an Orange. The baby miss pronounce Orange as [b]‘Ange[/b]”,but the

mother understands what her baby wants & give him the[i] orange [/i]ignoring the pronunciation mistake. Like wise Divine

Mother, just see through the sincere effort put by us & not the mistakes in chanting /sthothram by us.[/blue] {This is what our

In this stanza, our Acharyan makes us understand both Bagawan & Prarti Are supreme deity (paradevadai) to us.

Devi, Maha Lakshmi. Loka Mata [i]your Husband Lord[b] SRIMAN NARAYANAN [/blue][/i] has many

qualities***.[blue]

HE becomes the Antaryami of all Chetanas & achetanas (achetanan opposite of chetanan..Chetanan means one

who knows about the supreme reality.)(Antar bahicha tat sarvam vyapya Narayana stita: Narayana suktam)

By virtue of HIS sankalpam the act of Creation, protection & eradication is just like a game To HIM

By taking HIS Chest as your place of living, you never leave that place there by HE get the name Srinivasan. By

moving your red lacquer (Tamizh=Sen nira alankaram= Sem Panju kuzhambu thadaviya Padangal=is it

ok.correcta sollungo?) decorated feet. You are making a permanent mark on HIS chest. It further glorifies HIS

beauty/appearance.[/blue]

The Yogis, who are contemplating HIM thro the Nirvikalpa Samadhi, Set their mind (Aim) the above said (3) red

marks in his chest as their aim to attain salvation & ever blissfulness. The Nitya suris enjoys the ever blissfulness

by concentrating on the above marks in his Vakshasthalam

Because of HIS kalyana gunam he’ stays as paripoornan.

[blue] All this are possible to HIM because of your brightness (jyoti) you have taken residence in HIS

Vakshasthalam, & there by glorifying HIS appearance.[b]. pl.ref (stanza #(1) Bhushayantheem

Svakanthya)[/b][/blue]

[red] She resides on the chest of this Paramathma engaged in many vyaparams

through His Sankalpa Balam. Her foot is decorated with a radiant red lacquer dye.

That rubs on the chest of the Lord, when she moves and leaves a mark of her

presence. All the glories of the Lord arise from her presence on His chest and her

Page 8: Thoopul Acharyan's Sri Stuti-( Meaning)07.05

9:26:46 AM4/11/2023 8Presence in turn is revealed by the mark of the red dye from Her Thiruvadi. The

Vedantis recognize Him from that lakshanam and eulogize Him as the Supreme

Being based on that revelation. She is the auspiciousness behind our Lord's

auspiciousness. She is Sri and He is SrinivAsan. That is how He is recognized and

revered …says the 4th Slokam.[/red]

[i] [Blue]***As per the ( Vedic tradition)Vedas one has to praise the spouse’s qualities to respective betterhalf of that

particular party -. In [b] Sri Suktham [/b] the Vedam glorifies / praises the qualities of SRI i.e. Maha Lakshmi to Bagawan

The only deference here in this prapatti yagjnam is that Atma Doesn’t belong to jivan , it’s belong

to HIM In this yagjna(Sacrifice) the[blue] sheshi & the sheshan is Sriyapati[/blue] The rest of the sacrifices the sheshis, Indran,Agni etc are although Devas Now, they aren’t devas

naturally, they were jives like us. They become devas due to their good deed. On realizing that this atma is the property of Perumal the Jivan who become chetanan, resubmit it

to HIM. Since the property returns(as a havis) to the owner back naturally [blue]HE becomes the

udhdheshyan &(because he gets havis ) sheshi too[/blue] This is the difference between Perumal & rest of the Devathas, who get to the post & sheshitvam

due to their past good deeds for limited period only. What to talk of U R(both perumal & prati) greatness which is vast, unlimited even the Vedas are

still searching.On knowing this difference, we all are happy. Also in this [i][blue]Yagnam of Prapatti Bagwan is not sheshi & sheshan alone .Both of you

A.) There are many siddhantam and they have different views about their ideas. Some [blue] (कंविताथिचद) [/blue] say that you are the Empress of this universe.

B.) One group states that you and Sriman Narayanan are only one Aathma but have two separate bodies. Another group Believes that Bagawan himself also known as Lakshmi and there is no separate form of Lakshmi.

D.)Another[blue](अपीर$)[/blue] group opposing this view ,that Lakshmi is Sarveswari, denies Your Sarveswaratvam and insists that Vishnu is the Lord of the entire universe [blue] (ल�कंना�थी ) .[/blue] (Sarveswaran) and that you (Lakshmi) have no claim to be called Sarveswari.

E.) They claim that you are a visesha Jeevan.These two groups insist and reject [blue] (अ ता: कंल ) [/blue] iswarathvam for Lakshmi & argue vehemently for their points of view and become exhausted just like a fellow who is drowning tries to come up for breather & drowns again .[blue] ( विकंम्च�द उत्त��\ माग्नाI) .[/blue]

F.) These people declare that the Saasthram (indoctrination / theory) backed their views and are unable to establish their points of views. They come forward to accept that Lakshmi is a separate reality/identity and accept your Vaibhavam (greatness) but they fall apart by not accepting your Iswarathvam (nature of Being Iswari).[i][/red]

offering the Aathma. [i] In some Sacrifices the saasthram (theory) point out that

one has to combine two Devatas and offer the Havis to that united Devatai.[/i]

Bharanyaasa***).[/blue] - one has to aim BOTH OF YOU as the target to offer the

Aathma as the Havis. THUS, conclude the Prapatti yagjnam successfully [/i].

Nithya Kainkaryam to BOTH OF YOU at Your Supreme abode. Both of you

together shine as upayam and phalan to us.[/blue]

Maha Lakshmi, Devi..,

a) The divine body of your husband in SriVaikuntham known as Para roopam[i][blue] (पीर रूपीमा- supreme/high appearance) [/i][blue] it is of green emerald gem[i][/blue] ( र�-मारकंता$-hari marakate) colour. (--“Pachaimamalai”pol Meni “-Thondaradipodiazhwar--) [/i][/blue]

b) This roopam is the source of all his forms of all incarnation like Rama Krishna etc.

c) Similarly, you have also a Para roopam, it is of molten gold color[i][blue] (ताप्ता – ज�म्ब�नाद�भा�-tapta- jaambhunadabha) [/i][/blue]

d) You have a very slender[i][blue] (तान्��-tanvee) [/i][/blue]waist, & due to the weight of your heavy breasts, your beautiful thirumeni slightly bent forward.

e) Your golden colored Thirumeni’s presence in his vakshasthalam (in HIS green emerald Body) gives HIM a bewitching beauty.

f) Your Thirumeni is of the form of Bliss. g) From the speed of your sankalpam, from time to time, your divine

incarnation forms arise from that ocean of Bliss. h) Once the task pertains to that particular, incarnation completes these

Forms merges in to your Para roopam.i) Your Para roopam is an ocean of Bliss [i][/blue] (आना द–सिंसृ"धु3). Your

will/wish (इच्छं�) is a powerful wind. [/i][/blue] j) Your Incarnation/ forms are the waves that [i][blue]( उद� –वि�ल��I..

Udaya-Vilayai -) [/i][/blue] appear and disappear in that ocean of bliss .

(###)[i] In the HINDI FILM HARIVAMSAM I remember this particular scene. -Kuselar swamin prompted by his wife, gone to meet his childhood friend Lord Krishna for help. he took some AVAL-(Chidwa in Hindi- I don’t know the English name For AVAL)as an offering. bagwan eagerly eats that AVAL. Devi Rukmani (as if innocently) enquires Bagawan where from this pious Brahmanan come

Page 41: Thoopul Acharyan's Sri Stuti-( Meaning)07.05

9:26:46 AM4/11/2023 41from?. Bagawan by saying from this direction only he came here, indicate the direction to her. On Devi’s glance all the iswaryam fills up in the Kusalers residence transforming the house from Hut to bunglow etc..[/i][p] [i](***)1.[red]swami Thirupaanazhwar[/red] In His (last stanza) [red]Amalanadipiran[/red] says [b] [red]Kondal vannanai[/red].[/b] (Kondal means dark clouds). Wherever the dark clouds goes there must be some rain occurs that particular place. It’s surely going to rain there. [p]Like wise Bagawan, Forgiving all our transgressions, having compassion also showers Vatsalyam on us/his devotes like the above said dark clouds ( where as the other type of clouds like cirrus/cumulus are just for looking only... ah we can write many Kavitais(poems/lyrics) about them..Ada thavira 8 Anaku(50Paisa ku ) proyojanam kidayadu[:)] .)[p]In VSN(1000names of Vishnu ) also we have already studied about the Thirunamam[b] [red] Parjanyan[/b] [/red] (Stanza #87)[p]. Remember [blue] swami Desikan already said( in Sristuti sloakm #(9)}- If one studies the shrutis deeply, it becomes clear that the [i] inner meaning of the Vedas is about revering you both as equal [/i]. . Therefore, we consider[i] Both (Perumal & Maha Lakshmi) of you as Supreme deity (पीर द$�ताI) [/i]. Swami Desikan in another way here reiterates the same point.[/blue][p]$$ 4. Sarveswari,Maha Lakshmi as you haven’t commanded a particular Iswaryam to go in that direction where your auspicious Vision roams, all prosperities are competing with each other to go first in that particular Direction..[/i]
