Chapter 11<\/a><\/p>\n << Chapter 11 verse 18<\/a><\/p>\n Simple<\/a><\/p>\n an\u0101di-madhy\u0101ntam ananta-v\u012bryam ‘I see Thee, beginningless, middle-less and endless; of infinite energy; and of countless arms; having eyes like the moon and the sun; the mouth with burning fire; and Thy glorious light warming up the Kosmos.’<\/span><\/p>\n Devoid of beginning, middle or end = infinite. Infinite energy<\/em>=Limitless supreme power. Other qualities are implied, such as wisdom, might, dominion, power, strength, lustre, etc. Countless arms<\/em> imply countless breasts, feet etc. All eyes, like the moon<\/em> gladdening, and like the sun<\/em> glowing. The gladdening eye is the cool soft beaming eye with regard to those friendly creatures, the Devas etc., who bow and bend. The glowing eye is the cruel hot burning eye with regard to the inimical hosts of Asuras, R\u0101kshasas, etc. It is said : \u2018The terrified Rakshas (flee from Thee) in all directions, and all the Siddha-hosts do salute (Thee), etc.\u2019 (Gi.<\/em> xi-36).<\/span><\/p>\n The mouth with fire burning<\/em>=The mouth as if the Fire of Destruction, in the bosom of time, raged therein.<\/span><\/p>\n Tejas<\/em>=glory=dazzling presence, a beaming presence, a presence, conquering everything before it, or which nothing can resist in its course. And this life-giving glory flows unresisted into the Universe.<\/span><\/p>\n Thus do I \u2014in the manner Thou hast deigned to teach me\u2014 realize Thy Apparition<\/a> Divine, a demonstration that Thou art the all-Creator, the all-Refuge, the all-Wielder, the all-Destroyer, the Asylum of all the Divine virtues of Omniscience etc., the Beginning-less, Middle-less, and End-less.<\/span><\/p>\n How, in one body, are countless breasts etc., possible? The reply to such an objection would be: It is possible to imagine a single middle trunk above which countless hands etc., do branch off, and below which countless feet etc., do branch off; and every one of the countless faces too may be imagined to have a pair of eyes each. So it is no impossible conception.<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018Seeing Thee this-wise, Devas etc., and myself are, all, inspired with awe, etc.\u2019, says the following verse:<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 11 verse 20<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/githa.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 http:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Chapter 11 << Chapter 11 verse 18 Simple an\u0101di-madhy\u0101ntam ananta-v\u012bryam ananta-b\u0101hu\u1e41 \u015ba\u015bi-s\u016brya-netram pa\u015by\u0101mi tv\u0101\u1e41 d\u012bpta-hut\u0101\u015ba-vaktra\u1e41 sva-tejas\u0101 vi\u015bvam ida\u1e41 tapantam ‘I see Thee, beginningless, middle-less and endless; of infinite energy; and of countless arms; having eyes like the moon and the sun; the mouth with burning … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4324","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chapter-11","category-original"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4324"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4324\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
