Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha,
Namaskaram Vikram Swami,
Â
Adiyen will copy paste from this thread where Kongil Swami referenced some incidents from Velukkudi Swami’s upanyasam.
Â
“
Gajendra Azhvan (Elephant), did not call “NarayanA” names or other names of BhagavAn like Krishna, Govinda etc….when the crocodile caught its leg when Gajendra elephant went for bath and plucked a lotus to offer to BhagavAn.
Gajendra called “Aadhi Moolame (ஆதி மூலமே)“, means “Oh Lord, who is responsible for every creation”. First Brahma and Shiva leaped to help Gajendra since they are responsible for the temperory creation/samharam, but when Gajendra used the word “Aadhi”, then Brahma & Shiva stepped back, since there is a CAUSE behind their own existence (Sriman Narayanan created Brahma and in turn He created Shiva).
Â
So BhagavAn Sriman NarayanAn is the “NishKaaranam (நிஷ் காரணம்)”, means there is NO CAUSE for HIS existence.
Â
Same way Christians doesn’t know the Supreme BhagavAn Sriman Narayanan’s name, but they say “ALMIGHTY GOD”, which is nothing but “Aadhi Moolame”. So it refers to our same BhagavAn and HE will descend for anyone who asks for HIS help with pure love/devotion.
