KSHETRA FOR THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER 2015

                                                               THIRUTHEVANARTHOGAI



Once there was a huge assembly of all the Devas. Brahma, Rudra, Indra, Vayu, Agni, Yama, Ashwinikumaras, Vishwedevas,, Maruths etc met and discussed an important matter.
How do we see the Lord who is inaccessible to even Yogis. We are all Aathikaarikapurushas, who work as per the Lord’s instructions. Still the Lord is so inaccessible to even all of us. We are unable to go to Paramapada. Only the Nithyasuris are able to worship him there. We can go to Ksheerabdi, yet His Darshan cannot be guaranteed. Yogis see Him as Antharyami in their heart. WE are unable to do so. Even monkeys and shepherds got His Darshan. But that is possible only during His Vibhava Avatharas like Rama and Krishna. We became Devas after performing very many great deeds for many janmas. Yet what is the use if we cannot see the Lord? What is the way out. Please tell us Brahmaji, requested the Devas.
Brahma replied “ I begot the Brahmapatta after 1000crore yugas. The Darshan of the Lord is very difficult even for me. He is not visible to those who perform deeds with desires. He gives His Darshan only for those premabhakthas. We did not worship Him with Love but did so with selfish motives. If we can worship Him with true Love He will bless us all with His Darshan.
Lord Shiva said “ Hari is all pervading. Why cant you all perceive Him thus.” Indra said “ We want to see Him with a form and Name. Varuna said “ If that is the case we should give up all our desires and mediatate upon Him.  Ashwinikumaras said “ He is inaccessible to those who fall into maya, faithless, those who have fallen from the path of yoga. Each of them gave their own suggestion and they came to a conclusion that the Lord who come only if they worshipped Him with true Love.

Immediately the Lord manifested His Magnificient form with His divine conch and shell. He said “ You all have attained Swarga. You have nectar. Still you are not free from troubles.. The Devas said “ Oh Lord We have realised that your Darshan alone can free us from all miseries. We want to see you always. If we, even Devas are full of worry what about the ordinary mortals. Hence we request you to to stay here in this kshetra and give your Darshan to all men and DEvas.
Hence the kshetra came to be called ThiruDevanarthogai. Those who worship here will be freed from material desires.
