GARUDA ASHTOTHARAM

GARUDA ASHTOTHARAM

Translated by 
P.R.Ramachander

(God Garuda, the vahana   or steed of Mahavishnu was the son of  Sage Kashyapa and Vinutha. His   elder brother is Aruna,   the   charioteer of  the Sun God.  The serpents were the children of same sage Kashyapa through  another   wife Kadru. Kadru and the serpents deceived  Vinutha   and made her , their slave. When Garuda wanted   his mother to be freed , they demanded that he should bring the pot of nectar guarded by Devendra. Garuda defeats indra but they together play a trick   and deceive  Kadru and her children   and Vinutha gets her freedom. Later  Garuda accepts   the offer of becoming Vahana  to Lord Vishnu  .His importance can be gauged by the fact   that  there is a Garuda Purana , which details the journey of dead soul to the place of Yama and also Garuda Upanishad. IN Vedas he is referred as Syena . He has a gold coloured body  , white face  , red wings   , eagle’s beak  and a crown on his head. He is seen wearing  many great serpents as Ornaments.  The  Vaishnavites refer to him as  the “Periya Thiruvadi “  (The bigger vahana)  and Hanuman as the “Siriya  Thiruvadi  “ because Garuda carries Lord Vishnu in all his incarnations but Hanuman carries him only   during the incarnation as Rama .let Lord Garuda  bless us all.)
