vAsudEva nAmaka ParamAtma pervades inthe entire sthUla dEha (also called 'puru') inHis biMba rUpa as puruSha nAmakaParamAtma.There are 72000 nADi-s in our sthUla dEhai.e 36000 nADi-s on the right side (puruShanADi-s) and 36000 nADi-s on the left side(strI nADi-s).

According to the prEraNa of vAsudEvaParamAtma, vAyu dEvaru pervades in the72000 nADi-s. vAyu dEvaru performs thenADi vyApAra-s of the right side (puruShanAdi-s) and nADi vyApAra-s on the left side(strI nAdi-s) is performed by vAyu dEvaru viabhArati dEvi.The mahatatvAbhimAni-s i.e. brahma, vAyu,saraswati & bhArati perform the vyApAra-s in

the puruSha nADi-s of the right side. Theycontrol the 36000 naDyAbhimAni dEvata-son the right side.The ahaMkAra tatvAbhimAni dEvata-s i.egaruDa, shESha & R^idra along with theirtatva patni-s souparaNI, varuNI & umA dEvi

perform the vyApAra-s in the strI nADi-s ofthe left side.That is how vAsudEva nAmaka ParamAtma isserved by the tatvAbhimAni dEvata-s led by

mukhya prANa.sunADigaLu - vAsudEva nAmaka ParamAtmapervades as atIMdriya - He who is beyondthe range of the sense organs. Only thoseobjects that have a fixed shape, color, orother characteristics will be recognizable bythe iMdriya-s or sense organs. He is beyondthese sense-organs, and cannot be realizedthrough these or through sheer reasoning.

The only way to realize Him is to experienceHim through pure devotion. Therefore, thesenADi-s are described as 'sunADi'vAsudEva pervades along with satvaguNAbimAni shrI dEvi and rajO guNAbhimAnibhU dEvi in the sunADi-s. He is the niyAmakafor 'para' nAmaka laxmI dEvi who is Isha kOTipraviShTaLu, several crores superior tobrahma and other jIva-s in guNa-s.

ParamAtma is her niyAmaka. ParamAtma hasinfinite virtuous qualities, and He does nothave any dOSha-s.JagannAtha dAsa implores upon us toremember such ParamAtma and be happy.charaNagaLoLiha nADigaLu hanneraDu sAvira madhya dEhadoLirutihavu hadinAlku bAhugaLoLage

There is one tatvAbhimAni dEvata for eachtatva. vAyu dEvaru is the Chief of all theseabhimAni dEvata-s. By the prEraNa of biMbarUpi ParamAtma, vAyu dEvaru directs thetatvAbhimAni dEvata to carry out thevyApAra-s of our sthUla dEha through themand brings it to the experience of the jIva-s.This is the biMba kriya indeed,The nADyAMtaRgata tatvAbhimAni dEvata-sof our sthUla dEha constantly perform theupAsana of the vAsudEva nAmakaParamAtma.This brahmAMDa of 14 lOka-s was created bybrahma who was born in the 14 petal goldenLotus Flower emanating from the navel ofpadmanAbha rUpi ParamAtma. The 24tatvAbhimAni dEvata-s existing in this

brahmAMDa, experience the joy and fortuneof always serving ParamAtma.ParamAtma always protects the trividha jIva-s by carrying out tatva kaRya-s through thetatvAbhimAni dEvata-s in our sthUla dEha.He is thus 'shAshvata'Reference:-"kAlatrayEpi shashvadEka prakarENa

-----bR^ihatImaMtrARthaGist:- The progress of time degenerate ourdEha but ParamAtma is not affected by time(trikAla). He is called 'shAshvata'.

shAShvata - One who is eternal. That whichremains the same at all times is thePermanent. For something to be permanentit has to be changeless with time, andParamAtma is the controller of time, and isnot controlled or affected by time, and so isEternal and permanent. shAshvata isinterpreted as One who is Eternal because ofHis unceasing act of creation, sustenance

and destruction.satya saMkalpanu sadA eppatteraDu sAhasradoLu mUvattu nAlaku laxa daivattAru sAhasrachitprakRîti oDagUDi parama sunitya maMgaLa mURti bhaktaratettiganu tAnAgi saRvatradalisaMtaipa...HKAS_12-06

Inthese, there are 24 puruSha dEvata-s and 24strI dEvata-s totaling to 48. Thus, there exist

48 x 72000 = 34, 56,000 rUpa-s, which isdescribed by JagannAtha dAsa as 'mUvattunAlaku laxa daivattAru sAhasra'.satya saMkalpa ParamAtma exists in 34,56,000 rUpa-s. shrI laxmI dEvi is theabhimAni for mUla prakR^iti. She is called'chitprakR^iti'. ParamAtma pervades in the72000 nADi-s along with laxmI dEvi.

ParamAtma is shAshvata from endless time.His guNa-s, rUpa-s, avatAra, kriya are nityaand shAshvata. He is parama pavitra anddOSha rahita. He is therefore referred assunitya 'maMgaLamURti'. Such ParamAtmaremains besides His true devotees & He iscontrolled by His affectionate devotees -meaning He easily becomes the obedientsubject of His true devotees. He remains withthem and eliminates their dOSha-s, purifies

them and protects them.maNigaLoLagiha sUtradaMdipraNavapratipAdyanu saRvachEtanagaNadoLiddavanavarata saMtaisuvanutannavarapraNata kAmada bhakta chiMtA

14/96

connected by a thread.The different jIva-s are like the beads.ParamAtma exists as aMtaRyAmi in thesvarUpa dEha of all jIva-s like the thread.

shrIman nArAyaNa ParamAtma is OMkArapratipAdya which is also commonly referredas praNava. ('OM' consists of 'a-kAra', 'u-kAra' & 'ma-kAra'). This praNava pratipAdyaParamAtma ever exists like a thread in all thejIva-s as biMba and satisfies their wishes byproviding them happiness in life on earth andmOxa after death and thus protects them.

ParamAtma, who is eager to hear thepraising words of His devotees is likechiMtAmaNi pearl which grants all the wishesof the seeker. chiMtAmaNi was one amongthe many byproducts of the samudramathana. The one who does the pUja ofchiMtAmaNi is bestowed with all earthlytreasures in life and nityAnAMda mOxa afterkaRma vimOchana.

Unusually dOsha rahita satchidAnaMdaParamAtma has infinite virtuous qualities andeach guNa is limitless, which none canunderstand sufficiently. His every guNa,rUpa, avatAra, kriya-s are complete in allrespects. Our chidAnaMdAtmaka jIva haslimitations of it's svarUpa yOgyata.The svarUpa dEha of all jIva-s is extremelysmall. ParamAtma pervades in this extremely

small svarUpa dEha in His invisible biMbaform. In the same way He pervades in thejaDa vastu-s. He pervades in the tallest ofthe mountains, in the space, in all the watersaround, i.e. in all the things that we can seein as much as in the smallest things that wecannot see apart form pervading outside the


15/96

brahmaMDa. Although He pervades everywhere in this way, He does not let anyoneknow about His existence, rather He givesyou an idea about Himself to be trivialalthough He is not so.

Reference:-'.mayi saRvamidaM prOtaM sUtrE maNigaNAiva"----BG_07-07where Lord kRîShNa tells Arjuna says, "Oconqueror of wealth [Arjuna], there is notruth Superior to Me. Everything rests uponMe, as pearls are strung on a thread.Therefore, there is no truth superior to that

ParamAtma because He is the supermost. Heis smaller than the smallest, and He isgreater than the greatest. He is situated as asilent tree, and He illumines thetranscendental sky, and as a tree spreads itsroots, He spreads His extensive energies.I suShumnAdyakhiLa nAdIkOsha nAbhimUladali vRîShaNAsanada madhyadali ippadu

tuMdi is the originating nerve center lyingbelow the navel and between the scrotum &the anus. This tuMdi is also called themUlAdhAra.The suShumna nADi starts from tuMdi travelsthrough the center of our dEha and goesright upto the back of head. The suShumnanADi is also called R^iju nADi. This isextremely sensitive.

chatuRmukha brahma dEvaru is the mukhyaabhimAni of suShumna nADi. JagannAthadAsa describes brahma dEvaru as 'tAvarekaMda'. brahma was born according to thewishes of ParamAtma in Lotus Floweremanating from the navel of ParamAtma andthis flower is ramAbhimAnya.It was earlier stated in HKAS_12-08 that the

suShumna nADi branches out into 10branches plus the suShumna nADi itself thuseleven of them.The nADi-s related to the iMdriya-s and theirabhimAni dEvata-s and their respectivebhagavadrUpa-s are listed below:-

Therefore there are (72000 + 101) = 72101nADi-s in our sthUla dEha. One mustunderstand this by gurOpadEsha and uttamaj~nAnAnusaMdhana.EkAtma nAmaka ParamAtma pervades in


31/96

these nADi-s. He alone is saRvOttama.Thereis none equal to Him, forget any one beingsuperior to Him. This shrIman nArAyaNa isEkAtma.

shrIman nArAyaNa pervades in the 72000nADi-s of the our sthUla dEha in His 72000rUpa-s along with equal number of laxmIrUpa-s.The universe being brahmAMDa, our sthUladEha is a miniature of the same and is calledpiMDAMDa. Just as there are 14 lOka-s in thebrahmAMDa there are 14 lOka-s in the'ApAdamouLipaRyaMta' sthUla dEha. Existing

as biMba, ParamAtma does all the vyApAra-svia vAyu dEvaru through the tatvAbhimAnidEvata-s and bring it to the experience of thejIva-s and bestows yOgya phala to the jIvaand attracts them towards those vyApAra-s /phala-s. Existing in the trividha jIva-s asjIvakAra, jIva nAmaka, and gives them thefeeling that the jIva has done everything onit's own.

JagannAtha dAsa explains that thisharikathAmRîta sAra cannot be enjoyed byany one other than a haribhakta using a fineexample.The kumuda flower blossoms by the effect ofthe rays of the Moon (chaMdra). ThereforechaMdra is referred as 'kumudApta'. Duringshukla paxa, starting from pratipada until

pouRNimA the moonlight gradually increasestill it becomes full moon. It is impossible for ablind person (gatalOchana) to enjoy seeingthe rays of 'kumudApta'In the same way, the nectaral story ofinfinite virtuous qualities of ParamAtma (thisharikathAmRîtasAra) can be enjoyed onlyby a true bhakti and not by any non-bhaktawho is engrossed in worldy pleasure.

By listening to this harikathAmRîtasAra themanas of a devotee blossoms with bhakti -like a kumuda flower and they obtainAnaMda (equivalent to amRîta) andultimately they attain mOxa. Just like themoon rays go on increasing by the progress

The nADi-s in our sthUla dEha areintertwined like threads in a cloth. They thusspread in our entire dEha for left to right, topto bottom and they all originate from thetuMdi.


35/96

Primarily, puruhUta nAmaka iMdra and othertatvAbhimAni dEvata-s pervades in thesenADi-s. The superior dEvata-s like garuDa,shESha, R^idra & their consorts soupaRNI,vAruNI, pARvatI, vAyu-brahma along with

bhAratI & saraswati pervade there too.These dEvata-s constantly praise saMghAtanAmaka ParamAtma who frightens thedaitya-s in our sthUla dEha. The daitya-salways try to inflict problems or difficulties toour sthUla dEha. saMghAta nAmakaParamAtma terrifies them. saMghAta - meansone who kills. (samyak + ghAta = one whoinjures badly). The daitya-s are thus

weakened. The daitya-s rejuvenatethemselves but at the request of the dEvata-s to saMghAta nAmaka ParamAtma, thedaitya-s are weakened again.Some texts use 'saMdhAta nAmakaParamAtma'. During rainy season the bhUmi& AkAsha appear to have joined - thus thename saMdhAta. This name appears inViShNu sahasra nAma as referred below:-

The Eyes of then infinite virtuous ParamAtmaare broad like Lotus petals. He is thereforecalled jalaruhExaNa.

All the kriya in our sthUla dEha areperformed through the iMdriya-s by thebiMba rUpa of jalaruhExaNa without lettingknow the jIva that He exists there. ThevyApAra-s in our dEha go on through thenADigata tatvAbhimAni dEvata-s aspratibiMba kriya. Thus ParamAtma does andmakes the jIva do the various kaRma-s andbestows the phala to the jIva. Because ofaj~nAna the jIva at that time feels that he is

himself the kaRtR^i.ParamAtma is entirely different from the jIva-s and jaDa-s. Although saRvataMtrasvataMtra ParamAtma does all the kriya-s,He is not affected by the puNya or pApaphala-s.ParamAtma is ever happy - nityAnaMda.Therefore there cannot be any depreciation

and they remain without expecting anythingfrom the people around them and they arethus released from dvaMdva phala-s.Reference:-sukhaduHkha samEkR^itvA lAbhAlAbhoujayAjayou -----BG_02-38Gist:-Everything should be performed for the sakeof pleasing ParamAtma; so there is no

reaction to material activities. The one, whoacts for his own sense gratification, either ingoodness or in passion, is subject to thereaction, good or bad. But he who hascompletely surrendered himself toParamAtma is no longer obliged to anyone,nor is he a debtor to anyone, as one is in theordinary course of activities.

the sages, nor the people in general, norkinsmen, nor humanity, nor forefathers."Such persons (bhakta-s) never display theirpride in front of the brahma j~nAni-s who arethe aMtaRgata bhagavad bhakta-s, but theyoffer their humble obeisance to the brahmaj~nAni-s. They remain unaffected by rain,sunshine, hunger, thirst, victory, defeat,honor or dishonor and continuously meditate

on the mahime of kAlAMtaRgata ParamAtmaand just accept whatever is bestowed byParamAtma. They do not waste their time inlife just for satisfying their needs. They donot come under the influence of thecomments of ayOgya-s.JagannAtha dAsa implores on us to aquirethe above behaviour and roam aroundproudly with the belief that ParamAtma is in

jIva-s obtain birth in any of the 84 lakhs ofspecies. Dogs, pigs are among the lowerspecies animals. However, it is possible thatthese species could be satva jIva-s, rajO jIva-s or tamO jIva-s. The bizarrely differentParamAtma exists as aMtaRyAmi in thesvarUpa dEha of even in the lowest categoryof species.ParamAtma alone is entirely different from

any of the jaDa-s or jIva-s. There is noneequal to Him, forget anyone being superiorto Him. Therefore He is 'advitIya' There areseveral jaDa-s & jIva-s There is no differencebetween His various rUpa-s, guNa-s, Hisvarious limbs, kriya-s & avatAra-s. That iswhy He is referred as 'advitIya' svagatabhEda vivaRjita.This EkamEvAdvitIya nOkanIya ParamAtma

existing in the jIva as dog, pig etc. is knownby those names, since He exists in all thejIva-s by their name, shape, rUpa. Even thenHe is not visible to the normal person.At the prARthana of kanaka dAsa, onceParamAtma appeared as a dog in the maTha.

touching, smelling, moving about,giving/taking, all the mAnasika, kAlika,daihika kriya-s with the uttamaj~nAnanusaMdhana that all these kriya-sare being done by the prEraNa of ParamAtma- this is is true bhagavadupAsana.

pleased.Thus pleasing ParamAtma, whatever externalkARya-s that we perform, must be donewithout the feeling of ahaM-mamakAra,ahaMsvAdhIna kaRtA and they must beoffered at the Lotus Feet of manOpratIkArAMtaRgata ParamAtma.This is real pUja.

Various vyApAra-s are going on in our dEhathrough the iMdriya-s by the prEraNa ofParamAtma. According to the statement --"tEnavinA tRîNamapi nachalati",ParamAtma is the mukhya kAraNa for all thekArya-s of the jIva. The kaRtRîtva shakti of

the jIva is under the control of ParamAtma.Nothing happens without His prEraNa.JagannAtha dAsa advises us to alwaysremember that all the kARya-s that weperform must be considered as pAda pUja for

ParamAtma.balarAma has the plough as his weapon.kRîShNa ParamAtma is his younger brother.Those bhakta-s who perform pUja asdescribed above, would always be protectedby kRîShNa ParamAtma. He would increaseour j~nAna & bhakti by granting us daivIsaMpattu.

ParamAtma possesses infinite virtuousqualities. He does not have any dOSha-s. Justas sURya never sees/experiences darkness,in the same way ParamAtma neverexperiences duHkha. The purpose of variousavatAra-s of ParamAtma is to destroyadhaRma and protect dhaRma.biMba rUpi ParamAtma pervades in the

trividha jIva-s according to their yOgyata. Hetakes the various forms, shapes and sizesjust like the like actors on a stage.ParamAtma protects the chEtana-s in thetrilOka-s i.e svaRga, bhu & pAtALa.ParamAtma is praised by iMdrAdi dEvata-sand uttama dEvata-s like ramA, brahmAdidEvata-s. shESha dEvaru is the bed forParamAtma.

vibhIShaNa was a bhagavad bhakta althoughhe was born in the rAxasa kula. He wastherefore loved by Lord rAma.vijaya is one of the ten names of aRjuna.kR^iShNa ParamAtma being his friend isrefered as 'vijayasakaha', who broughtvictory for aRjuna.

In the same way ParamAtma satisfies the desires of sAtvikasajjana-s on earth and also makes them happy by providingthem svarUpAnaMda after liMga bhaMga.

62/96

Resolute feeling of affection with mahAtmyAj~nAna of ParamAtma is true bhakti.ParamAtma could be obtained only by thisclear bhakti.

brahma dEvaru leads the R^iju gaNa andthus he is jIvOttama. He creates the severalspecies of jIva-s. brahma is thereforepitAmaha. ParamAtma is primarily served bybrahma and other dEvata-s.By the words 'amarAsurARchita pAdapaMkEja', one would derive the meaning that(amara + asura aRchita) ParamAtma is

served by dEvata-s and daitya-s. However,the tamO yOgya daitya-s are the enemies ofParamAtma. How can they be servingParamAtma?Therefore, we must derive the correctmeaning of 'asura' here as - asouratAHasurAH, where 'asou' means those viShNubhakta-s who have firm bhakti inmukhyaprANa dEvaru. bhakta-s like

prahalAda, vibhIShaNa & bali were viShNubhakta-s & bhAgavatOttama-s inspite of thefact that they were born in the daitya kula.They offered their obeisance at the feet ofprANa dEvaru. This can be construed as'asurAH'. Or else if we read the same as'asuShu rataH asuraH', where asuShu = in alljIva-s, and rataH = vAyu dEvaru exists.Thus ParamAtma (pAda paMkEja) is served

by vAyu dEvaru & bhAgavatOttama viShNubhakta-s like prahalAda & others who wereborn in the daitya kula.parama maMgala svarUpi ParamAtma isparama pavitra. His vibhUti rUpa in the jIva-sis the reason for their beauty.

ParamAtma can perform all krIDa-s and He isthe also the kriyA pravaRtaka. In the namerAma, ra = strength, ama = one who givesstrenghth to bhUmi, AkAsha . or else, ra =

tuppa (ghee) - a dictionary meaning. Anothermeaning for ra = milk. 'A' = in all the cows,'mAti' (niRmAti) = produces, thus rAmanAmaka ParamAtma.kamaladaLAyatAxa ParamAtma is the onewho binds is with kaRma and it is He alonewho can release us from this bondage ofkaRma by way of kaRma vimOchana. Thereis none other who can do this. ParamAtma

alone is the cure for this diseased saMsAra.He is thus 'bhava rOga vaidya'.When one appeals to Him, "Oh ParamAtma,kulasvAmi, please pardon my pApa andpurify me and release me from this bondageof saMsAra and grant me the anugraha ofyour daRshana", then the kind paramAtmawould remove our obstacles and alwaysprotect us.

However, inorder to protect the dependent jIva, Heremains with them as their aMtaRyAmiwithout expecting anything from the jIva and

remains infinitely related to the jIva.ParamAtma exists as aMtaRyAmi in all thedaitya-s. The daitya-s are primarily enemiesof ParamAtma and His devotees. They aretamO yogya jIva-s.


65/96

ParamAtma also exists as aMtaRyAmi in themukti yOgya jIva-s who have sAtvikasvabhAva. The madhyama jIva-s i.e the nityasaMsArins are also considered here for the

sake of discussion.The svarUpa of jIva is nitya, anAdi and is incontrol of ParamAtma. ParamAtma does andmakes us do various kaRma-s according tothe svarUpa yOgyata and anAdi kaRma ofthe jIva. He does not exhibit disparity tothem. The satva guNa-s of the dEvata-s aretheir svarUpa dhaRma and demonstrate theirkaRma accordingly.

The tamO yOgya daitya-s demonstrateenmity towards ParamAtma according totheir svarUpa and create trouble for sajjana-stoo. ParamAtma does and makes them dothese pApa kaRma-s.Through the rajO jIva-s who are nityasaMsArins, ParamAtma does and makesthem do mishra kaRma-s.

ParamAtma is indestructible. The jIva is bornin the sthUla dEha and is therefore subjectedto birth and death. ParamAtma is not soaffected. He is entirely different from all thejIva-s.When the jIva is born in the womb of themother, the biMba enters the sthUla dEha,from that time onwards and He stays along

with the jIva as 'jIva' in the sthUla dEha.dEhAMtaRgata ParamAtma causes thegrowth of the child from youth to old age.Therefore, the jaDa sthUla dEha & theaMtaRyAmi Isha are different. Thus jaDa-IshabhEda is established.

ParamAtma exists in the biMba-pratibiMbarelationship in the sthUla dEha. Just as arelative in the real world would come to ourhelp in our difficulties, in the same wayParamAtma arrives to help His true devotes

at the time of their difficulties withoutexpecting anything from them and remainsinfinitely related to the jIva.A snake protects the wealth in the groundbut the snake is no way benefited by this act.In the same way, ParamAtma takes theresponsibility of protection and well being ofthe jIva.

infinite light emitted by sURya & chaMdra.Therefore He has the power of heat which isinfinite times that of the Sun and the powerto cool which is infinite times that of themoon.
