FOREWORD
Saranagati Decpika is one of the Stotras of Thoopul
Vedanta Desika. It is in praise of Sri Deepaprakasa at
Thirutthanka (@gjgafirar) by the side of Thoopul. Being
in praise of the Deity presiding over the birth place of Sr1
Desika. naturally this stotra excels all other stotras of his,
even Varadaraja Panchasat sung in praise of Sri Varadaraja'
his favourite ch. This Stotra gives a gist of Srimad
Rahasyatraya-sara,- the premier Rahasya-grantha of Si)
Desika. A mumukshu (a person desiring to obtain MokSha
can get a full knowledge of Tatva, Hita and Purushartha if
he closely studies this Stotra.

like us. Sloka 49, which D.R. says is beyond him in his
modesty, is enough authority for us to cite and obtain Grace
from the Lord. How and ,why?. Because, Sri Desika has
already done Prapatti for the benefit not only of his
compatriots but generations yet unborn that will follow him.
It is our sheet-anchor and magna carta-

INTRODUCTORY
This is a Stotra or hymn of Vedanta Desika in praise of
Lord Deepaprakasa presiding over the sacred shrine cele-
brated by the Alwars as 3655653155 in Kancheepuram-
Desika’s birthplace (Avatarasthala) is known as Teappul, and
that is adjacent to Tirutthanka. Lord Deepaprakasa enjoyed
by the Alwars as cflméearafi is thus the Emberuman
adorning Desika’s Avatarasthala, and the gratitude, love,
fondness and devotion that Swamy Desika entertained to-
wards this Lord are all amply in evidence in this Stotra.

Swaroops, Roopa. Guna—this order as pointed out above
has been deliberately departed from, and Roopa is placed
first and Swaroopa next. Gunls or Qualities follow and
they are dealt with in this sloka.
The first and foremost among Gunas for which the Lord
isfamous are the Shadgunss—six qualities known as Gnanam,
Balam, AiSWarysm, Veeryam. Saklhi and Tejas. The Bhagavat
Sastra (Sri Pancharatra) makes this quite clear though the
Upanishads do not enumerate these qualities all atone place.
These six are referred to by Desika in the T attvatraya
Chintanaadhikara of Srimad Rahasyalhraya Sara thus.- @613

The essential nature of the Supreme Tattvam was en-
Joyed in the earlier slokas. He is the God to be attained
'1 his
sloka sets out the Lord’s other aspect - that of redeem-
ing souls from Samsara. What all He does towards that end
are stated here. First He projects this world into being at
the time of creation (at the end of pralaya). For that, He
creates the four-faced Brahma who in turn creates the
P 1' apancha of Chit and Achit. In order to help the Chetanas
to redeem themselves. He gives them the Vedas, through
Brahma. It is like giving a lamp to light our way
thl'OUgh the darkness of Samsara mum/9 5w: Hiram/sub
”Wrdvg'trwa’zua abgmageum Daya Sataka-IS. In fact
from creation. everything is an act attributable only to His
Mercy or Daya. That is why this'Sloka begins with the
Word Dayayaa after the first word which is an address to the
Lord.
When they do so, they enter into, and enjoy Him toge-
ther with several glorious qualities of His, which are enume-
rated in the second half of the sloka. He is Bliss and Know-
ledge avvamra/rartb which are boundless, eternal and fault-
less. They enjoy Him not as mere existence, but
as endowed
with all the several auspicious qualities and absence of all
evil qualities, and also as LLHLI 5195557 Islrtuaair the overlord
of this Leela Vibhuti and also of that other Nitya (Eternal)
Vibhuti beyond created cosmos. They contemplate on Him
as such sflgfimrnfi and as Lllfifi’fl? 94L"? “WGDWUUWGJT-

Sage Vyasa and others have said that if, at the time of
the birth of this soul, it is seen by Brahma or Siva. it gets
associated with Rajoguna and Tamoguna as also with Raga
and Dvesha (desire and hatred); but if. it is seen by Thee,

To do good to a bad man may be a laudable trait. But
t0 an impartial
person it will be next to impossible to do good
t0 one bad man out of millions of bad men. He will be
lccused of oaprice and partiality. The Lord who is a

declared “Gwn'gmtb 9151?ngng cannot, if He is to
preserve His impartiality untarnished. extend His protec-
tion to anyone He chooses unless that one haszdeserved that
Pr0teetion to some extent at least.

Leela and Days are the two spouses of the Lord.
[Between them there is eternal disagreement and even dissen-
sion. Leela insists on the Lord rewarding the righteous and
Dimishing the wicked. Dsya pleads for the wicked and seek
the Lord’s reprieve in their case. The Lord cannot afford&
t0 displease either of His spouses. So. He watches minutely
and discovers what to Him appears to be a good act in a
“hired man. By reference to it He satisfies Leela Devi and a
Older to hurt it for having eaten his corn. The Lord makes j

To those who possess the necessary strength and capa-
°1ty to walk along the long and arduous path of Bhaktiyoga

The great and true ones first make their minds fit by
Yama and Niyama. then by controlled asanas (postures) and
SUbdued breath (praanaayama) conquer their sense-organs,
and with concentrated contemplation meditate upon Thee
(by Dhyana), and ultimately visualise Thee by the two kinds
0f Samadhi (profound meditation).
t----—-
After having dealt with Tattva (truth) in its various
BSpects,‘ Desika,from this sloka onwards. begins to deal wrth
UP3Ya or means for realising the Lord. Bhakti and Prapatthi
are the two broad divisions in regard to Upaya. Perfor-
mance of Bhakti yoga by means of Ashtanga yoga is first
dealt with. And that is the topic of this sloka- The eight
311833 (component parts) are l. Yama; 2. Niyama; 3. Asans;
4. Praanaaysama; 5. Pralyanhaara; 6. Dhaarana; 7. Dhy-
aana: 8. Samsdhi. In Yoga, Semaadhi is referred to as the
angi and the other seven as its :mgas. This sloka refers to
all the eight in that same order. Yama meaning self-
control and Niyama meaning self-restraint are practised
first with a view to make the mind (out to employ itst If in
contemplation) fit for the task. Then comes the body-
control and the adoption of a suitable asana or posture.
Seated properly in an asana suited to meditation, the upasaka
next begins to control the breath and regulate it. This is
the Praanaayaama stage. It is followed by the pratyaahaara
which introvelts vision from external objects into one’s
own interior (self)—»byno means an easy task. AVedn
mantra blames the Creator for having made all the senses
look out. It requires great courage and steadfast determi-
nation to turn them all inwards to visualise the Inner Self
($0305.55 New J/Lbcggg'w Lasers).

Now, one has equipped himself for the next step— Dhaa-
rana, steady abstraction of mind.- This enables Dhyaana,
an unbroken series of mental realisation (like the flow of

Daya—that great quality of the Lord which connotes mercy,
grace, compassion, sympathy and forbearance-that alone can
