Atmarpanastuti - Sloka 27


किं गूढार्थैरकृतकवचॊगुम्फनैः किं पुराणैः
तन्त्राद्यैर्वा पुरुषमतिभिर्दुर्निरूप्यैकमत्यैः ।
किं वा शास्त्रैरफलकलहॊल्लासमात्रप्रधानैः
विद्या विद्यॆश्वर कृतधियां कॆवलं त्वत्प्रसादात् ॥ २७ ॥

Gayatri Sadhana

The sadhana of Gayatri is worship of true knowledge. It has been repeatedly seen those who worship Gayatri will never be lacking in spiritual and worldly happiness.

It is said in Taittriya Brahmana of Yajur Veda that each limb of Gayatri has been distilled out from each Veda.. The three fold knowledge was revealed: Rig to the heart of Agni; Yajur to the heart of Vayu and Sama to the heart of Aditya. Thus the All Pervading Lord revealed the three fold knowledge, the three worlds were thus illumined. The earth (Bhu Lok, Prithvi) by the Rig, the Antariksha (Bhuva Lok) by the Yajur and Dev Lok (Svah Lok) by the Sama Veda.

Gayatri is Vedamatha, the mother of all Vedas. A person totally devoted to Gayatri recitation can achieve great success in the path of self advancement. Gayatri inspires man towards righteous wisdom. An astral, conscious electric current flows constantly in a person who is able to establish a relationship with Gayatri as it influences his mind, intellect, heart and inner self. No sooner the divine light of Gayatri dawns on the intellectual field of a person, the darkness of evil thoughts, false convictions, degrading vices start dispelling. Gayatri undoubtedly and miraculously transforms the mental framework of a person to a systematic, healthy, righteous and balanced personality. The well developed mind produces thoughts leading to action resulting in happiness. His work becomes excellent and his well intentioned thoughts radiate happiness, contentment and peace!

In front of me I see a bluish radiance excelling a very thick array of Kalaaya (blue lily) flowers. I am bathed in the nectar of the sight. Then, in the centre of the radiance I see the form of a divine young body enchanting by the budding of youth. He is surrounded by sages like Naarada thrilled with ecstatic bliss, and by a group of beautiful women who are the Upanishads embodied.

தியானம், ஜபம், பூஜை, யக்ஞம் க்ஷேத்திராடனம் ஆகியவற்றைப் போலவே நம் தேசத்தில் நீண்ட காலமாக பகவன் நாமாக்களைக் கோஷ்டியாகப் பாடி பஜனை செய்கின்ற பழக்கமும் இருந்து வருகிறது. இந்த ஜீவாத்மாவானது அந்த பரமாத்மாவுடன் தொடர்பு கொள்வதற்கு ஒரு பெரிய உபாயமாக நாம பஜனை தொன்று தொட்டு தேசத்தில் அனுஷ்டிக்கப்பட்டு வந்திருக்கிறது. அநேகமாக கிராமம், நகரம் எல்லாவற்றிலும் பஜனை மடம், அல்லது பஜனைக்கூடம் என்றே ஒன்று காணக்கிடைப்படுவதிலிருந்து, பஜனை பத்ததி நம் நாட்டில் எவ்வளவு செழிப்பாக இருக்கின்றது என்று ஊகிக்கலாம். இந்த பஜனை மடங்களில் சனிக்கிழமை தோறும், ஏகாதசி தோறும் ஜனங்கள் எல்லோரும் சேர்ந்து பஜனை செய்வார்கள்.

Who can recount the glories of the All Pervading Lord Vishnu or count the sand particles of the universe? The three strides of His feet alone measured the three worlds, and the worlds are full of joy with wealth and prosperity because of the touch of His feet. He alone is the support of the worlds. His supreme abode is dear to me and may I attain it, where Thy devotees enjoy bliss and the honey juice of immortality flows free.

திருவாரூர் தியாகராஜஸ்வாமி - அஜபா நடனம்

Thiruvarur Sri Thyagarajaswamy Temple


The historic name of Thiruvarur was Aaroor (Arur) and it finds mention in the 7th century saiva canonical work, Thevaram.The term Thiru is added to all temple cities that are mostly revered by the verses of Thevaram, which is the case of Arur becoming Thiruvarur. Another name of Thiruvarur is Kamalayaksetra, meaning the "holy place that is an abode of lotuses"; the town is also referred so due to the presence of the Kamalayayam tank and the temple deity, Kamalambigai.

It is Brahaman itself, on whose base this universe is manifested, from which this universe became, into which it merges, which itself is the universe, who is transcended from this all, from whose illumination the universe is illumined, whose illumination it is. Again, who is far beyond all description and also from the mind's conception. Whose true nature the gods and sages do not know, what of other lesser beings. To That Krishna, Brahaman itself, salutations.

All entities in this world, knowledge, faith, work, residence, happiness, food etc., being constituted of the three gunas, are of different kinds and different gradations, such as, low, mediocre or high. But entities and activities pertaining to Thee, Thy temples and Thy worship are beyond these three gunas. By resorting to these, I will soon become perfect (free).
