This RanganAtha Chandran is however different in number of ways from the ordinary Moon. First, the ordinary Moon makes the lilies (Kumudham) bloom (vikAsayantham) only at night. Second, the Moon is not full always (satatam PoorNam); it waxes and wanes. Third, the ordinary Moon is invisible during the day time. Fourth, the ordinary Moon is full of defects (dhOshams) and difficulties (upaplavam). In contrast, the RanganAtha-Chandran is quite different in many ways. Lord makes the Kumudha (the Earth) bloom always (anisam). He is always full (ParipoorNan in the spirit of IsAvAsyOpanishad). He can be visualized day and night (aharnisam cha dhrusyam). He is free from all defects and dhOshams (upaplava rahithan, anavadhyan, nirdhOshan, anupaplavan). Bhattar enjoyed Lord RanganAthan during one Thirumanjanam day and compared the Lord with Chandran. He found that the Lord of Srirangam had many unique features that are not found in the Moon. He enjoyed the differences between Lord Ranganathan and the Chandran step by step (VyatirEka saraNi) and blessed us with this slOkam. Bhattar wrote an in-depth, most erudite commentary of his own for this slOkam with many VedAnthic references. Here it is with explanatory notes: NaayantE ! You are the Jn~Ana JyOthi (flame of Jn~Anam)! As the AzhwAr saluted, thou art: " Yejjn~AnRum engum ozhivaRa niRaintu ninRa mey Jn~Ana sOthi" Saasvatha , ParipoorNa , all pervasive true JyOthi). JyOthi svaropam of Brahma tatthvam is saluted here. You are akhila hEya Prayaneekan (free from any and all dhOshams)! You are KalyANa guNaikathan (abode of all auspicious guNams) SvEthara samastha vasthu vilakshaNar (Tani Tatthvam differing from all others. Sri RanganAthan's anugraham to the Bhaddha Jeevan ************************************************* As the Jeevan driven by its timeless flow of karmas (anAdhi karma pravAham) embeds itself into four kinds of bodies (DevAs , Humans, animals and plants) and roams in the 14 worlds. You take pity on them and with Your visEsha kaDAksham , You rescue the Jeevan buffeted amidst the aasA thrayaM (MaNN, PeNN, Ponn---land, women and gold); that jeevan did not comprehend Tatthva Thrayam (Chith, achith, Iswaran) before; you blessed that jeevan with Tatthva Thraya Jn~Anam and save them. That jeevan is bound (Bhaddhan) in the bonds of karmAs and suffers the Taapa Thrayam (aadhyAthmikam, Aadhibouthikam and aadhidhaivikam). At that time, the Jeevan is caught up in the net of thriguNams (Sathvam, Rajas and Tamas) and is drowning in Karma Thrayam (PrArabdham, Sanchitham and AagAmi KarmAs). Then, the Lord through His visEsha KaDAksham banished the Jeevan's VirOdhi Thrayam (three obstacles to Moksham: Svaroopa 8 VirOdhi, UpAya VirOdhi and PrApya VirOdhi) and blessed them with Sukrutha Thrayam (Yaadhrucchikam, aanushangikam and prAsangikam). Our Lord engaged the jeevans in the aakAra thrayam (ananyArha sEshathvam, ananya SaraNathvam and ananya bhOgyathvam). He blessed them through their AchAryan with Manthra Thrayam (Moola Manthram, VaasudEva Manthram and VishNu Manthram). He chased away their ajn~Ana Thrayam (ajn~Anam/nescience, anyathA Jn~Anam and Vipareetha JnA~nam) through sanmanthra Thrayam (Moola Manthram, Dhvayam and Charama slOkam). In Moola Manthram, the esoteric meanings of the Padha Thrayam (PraNavam , Nama: Padham and NaarAyaNa Padham) were revealed. AakAra Thrayam led the Jeevan onward to Parva Thrayam (Para Bhakthi, Para Jn~Anam and Parama Bhakthi) and then on to Paadha Thrayam (Parama Padham: "ThripAdhasyaamrutham dhivi"). Special Notes on the Passages of SlOkams *************************************** "Anisam Kumudham VikAsayantha:" During the night, Chandran makes the Kumudham (Aambhal Flower, which is Kumudha sabdha Vaachyam) blossom. Lord RanganAthan gladdens ( Mudh) the heart of BhUmi DEvi ("Ku" sabdha Vaachyai): " Paarennum madanthayai maal seyyum Maal". "Sathatham PoorNam": Chandran will be PoorNan one day and apoorNan at all other times. RanganAthan in contrast is ParipoorNan always (Idham PoorNamatha: PoorNam PoorNAth PoorNamuthrisyathe! PoorNasya PoorNamAdhAya PoorNamEvAvasishyathE"). "aharnisam cha dhrusyam": Chandran is seen only at night (Nisaa dhrusyan). RanganAthan can be seen at all times by every one (Varadhas-sarva bhUthAnAm adhyApi paridhrusyathE). "anupaplavam": Chandran is Upaplavan , since he is attacked by Raahu. RanganAthan is "anupaplavan". He cuts off the head of Raahu and attacks Raahu and therefore He is "RaahOscchiraccha chicchEth DevAnAm Prabhurachyutha:" "adhya RangarAjam manuthE Chandramasam JanOnumAnyam": The state of RanganAtha unlike Chandran was (1) KumudhOllAsakam (2) PoorNan at all times (3) Seen at all times (4) unattacked by anyone at any time. He blesses Muktha Janams to enjoy His dhivya mangaLa vigraham in archa form at Srirangam without them blinking their eyes. Just as Chandran nourishes medicinal herbs as rasAthmaka Chandra Sareerakan, Our Lord with His archA roopam nourishes us all and grows our Jn~Anam and Bhakthi.
