Prayer to God as divine truth


Prayer  to God as divine truth

By
Sage  Shukacharya

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander




(When king Parikshith asked  sage Shukha, why God does the  creation,  before explaining it to him, the sage  prays, the divi9ne truth. Bhagawatha Skanda 2   chapter 4   slokas  12-23)

1.Nama parasmai purushaaya  bhooyase,
Sadhudhbhava sthana Who has nirodha leelayaa,
Graheetha  sakthi  trithayaya  dehinaam,
Antharbhavaayanu upalakshya varthmane

Salutations   to that Purusha  again,
Who has accepted  the job of creation, upkeep and destruction,
By   the the  three  different of power  that he has taken,
And who is  present  in all being in a form that  cannot be seen.

2,Bhooyo nama  sadh vrujina cchidhe asathaam,
Asambhavaayaa  akhila   sathwa  moorthaye,
Pumsaam  puna  paramahamsya aasrame,
Vyvasthithaanaam anumrugya dhaasushe.

I again salute him  who removes  sins of good people,
Who  is the impossible  power present  everywhere  as truth,
Who grants  the state that  is requested  by those who have subdued  their senses,
And who shines   in the form of   all the devathaas.

3.Namo namosthesthu  Rishabhaaya  Sathwathaam,
Vidhoora kaashtaaya muhu  kuyoginaam,
Nirastha samyaa athisayena radhasaa,
Swadhaamani brahmanani  ramsyathe  nama.

Salutations    to him who grants divine wisdom  to pure devotees,
Who is far away and unapproachable to  people with dirty mind,
Who  shines with incomparable  power in  divine truth,
And who himself  is  the form assumed  by Brahmam.

4.Yath  keerthanam   yath smaranam  yadheekshanam,
Yath vandhanam   yachravanm  yadarhanam,
Lokasya sadhyo   vidhunothi  kalmasham,
Thasmai   subadhra   sravase   namo nama

Singing  about him, thinking  about him , doing  penance   about him,
Saluting  him, hearing  about him  and  worshipping  him,
Would  put an end to   the bad aspects of the world,
And  I salute and salute the God who has this  great fame.

5,Vichakshanaa   yacharano upaasadhanaath,
Sangam  vyudhasyo abhayatho    antharaathmana ,
Vindathi  hi brahma  gathim  gatha klamaa,
Thasmai   subadhra sravase namo nama

Those  who have great wisdom , By worshipping  that feet,
Win over   the desire for pleasure  in this and other world,
And attain   the  way to the  Brahmam very easily,
And  I salute and salute the God who has this  great fame.

6.Thapaswino   dhanaparaa   yasaswino,
Manaswino  Mantha  vidha   sumangalaa,
Kshemam   na  vindathi  vinaa   yadarpanam
Thasmai   subadhra sravase namo nama

If the sages  by  offering the  result of their penance and worship him,
But keep on doing   penance  , charity , yoga  ,chanting of manthras,
Good behavior,   religious activities  that bring them fame, They  will ,
Never get   the  spiritual  well being  at any  time,
And  I salute and salute the God who has this  great fame.

7.Kiraatha hunaandra pulindha  pulkasaa,
Abeera kanga  yavanaa  khasaadhayaa,
Ye anye  cha papaa  yadhupaasrayaarayaa,
Shudhyanthi  thasmai  prabha vioshnave nama.

Even the hunters , foreigners  , barbarians , sinners,
Cowherds  , Greeks  and those   who  are  dirty in appearance,
And even other sinners , by doing   service to Gods,
Become pure and I salute   that   great god.

8.Sa yesha   athmaathmavatthaam  adheeswaraa,
Thrayeemayo   dharma maya sthapomaya,
Gathavyalee kairaja sankaraadhibhi,
Vitharkhya  liongo  Bhagawaan  praseedathaam.

That god   whom  the  thoughtful controller of senses,
Know as the  power within them , is the god of all,
He is the form of Vedas, dharma and the result of penance,
Even though    your very pure form is difficult ,
To comprehend    even for  gods like  Shiva and Brahma,
Let   that  God shower   his   grace on me.

9. Sriya  pathir ,   yajnapathi,   prajapathir,
Dhiyaam   pathir , loka pathir, Dharaa  pathi,
Pathir   gathischaandhaka  vrushnee saathwanaam,
Praseedathaam  may bhagwan  sathaam  gathi  .

Let lord of prosperity  , lord of Yajna , lord of peole ,
Lord of the givers  , lord of the world, lord of earth,
Who is at present  in the form of Krishna , the lord.
Of the    devotees  of Andhakas  and Vrishnis ,
And who protects  all good  people shower his grace on me

10.Yadhangrya anya dhyana samaadhi dhouthaaya,
Dhiyanupasyanthi hi  thathwamaathmanaa  ,
Vadanthi  chaithath   kavayo  yadharucham,
Same  mukundho  bHagawaan  praseedathaam.

By  meditaing  on that god   with love, the sages,
With their  purified  thought   understand the soul,
And they describe it as per   the nature  of their knowledge,
Let the  Mukunda   become  pleased with me.

11,Prachodithasa  yena  puro  saraswathi,
Vithanwathajasya satheem   smrutheem hrudhi,
Swalakshhanaa   pradhrabhooth kilaasyatha,
Same  rishinaam rishabha praseedathaam.

Initially God   made the  thought of creation appear in Brahma,
And by his own  urging , you made   the faultless Vedas,
Arise from his   in the form of Goddess  Saraswathi,
Let That God who is the greatest sage  be pleased with me.

12,Bhoothair  mahadbirya yimaa puro vibhur,
Nirmaaya seethe    yadhamushu   purusha,
Bungthe   gunaan  shodasa  shodasaathmaka  .
So  alankrusheeshta bhagwaan vachaamsi mama.

The God who is everywhere   using the   five eleme3ts,
Creates the  beings of the world and   exists  in  them,
As Unseen power and knows about them through,
Sixteen karanas* and let that God  decorate my words

*Ten organs+five pranas aqnd mind   are the sixteen karanas
