Emperuman Sriman Narayana has 5 Subasraya roopam, they are Param, Vyuham, Vibhavam,Archai and Antharyami. In this article Author tells about the importance of Antharyamithvam.
A remarkably simple but at the same time very effective exposition of Sri Vaishnava philosophy on the five-fold existence of Sriman Narayanan.Ordinary humans cannot have darshan of Him in any form other than the archavataram, where again the sanithyam of the presiding deity depends greatly on the devotion shown by the archakas as well as the worshipers who assemble in the temple. On the otherhand
worshiping the Lord WHO resides for ever in one’s heart is if practiced properly not only practical but rewarding in that the Lord gives “Darshan ” here without fail.
Sri. Andal in Tiruppavai stresses on this form of worship in two pasurams with uncanny brevity- namely, in pasuram 3 and 11…….”thooyomaivandu —-manathinaal sindhikka”
and “kanaithilang katrrerumai——-manadirkiniyanai padavum nee vaaio thiravaai”
A great contribution sir which has kindled me to think
constructively on this aspect of our philosophy.
