Chapter – 21 –  Sri Bhramasthuthi/ Lord Bhrama eulogizes Lord Narayana


Shukadev Maharaj describes the creation of the Universe to King Pareekshith.  Lord Narayana was pleased with the austerities of Lord Bhrama, he eulogized the glorious form of Lord Narayana, “ Oh! Mayatheetha/Parama, Oh! Athmaswaroopa,  I shall praise your Nirguna as well as Sagunaroopa which has no difference at all, you are the source of brilliance to this Universe, you are the source creation of living as well as non-living things, I shall surrender at your lotus feet. Oh! Bhuvanamangala, I shall repeatedly prostrate before your lotus feet which is the source of all the auspiciousness, which is not available to morally wrong people.  Oh! Natha, whoever listens or recites the sacred Veda with intense devotion and faith, it would bring the magnificent fragrance of your lotus feet, that worshiper would attain your eternal presence in their lotus-like hearts.  People who do not surrender at your lotus feet would be tormented with extreme fear and sorrows, grief caused by uncontrollable desires, fear of wealth, and conflicts.    People who are not willing to listen to your glories, or recite your sacred names would remain glued to the worldly matters and commit various treacherous sins.  Oh! Urukrama/extremely valorous, I am extremely worried about the people who are immersed in the seasons like uncontrollable sensual pleasures, anger, selfishness, miseries, and grief etc… Oh! Esha,  The souls are not unaware of the results of uncontrollable sensual pleasure which could provide several births and undergo immense sorrow, even the saintly people who keep themselves away from contemplating upon Lord would disturb with sleeplessness, and conduct journeys in accumulating wealth.  Oh! Natha, you have various incarnations, you are too compassionate to assume the form in which your devotees contemplate upon you, and worship you.  Whoever immerses in the highly pious deeds such as contemplating upon your glorious form, worship your lotus feet, perform various religious and spiritual rites, Yaga, perform charities, undertake extreme austerities and penances, would attain highest of the piousness, ultimately attains Bhramam, and I shall surrender to that soul.  I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Who is the source of creation, preservation, and destruction of the Universe and its living beings.  Oh! Supreme Lord who symbolizes Yajja/Adhimakha, supreme wisdom and knowledge, I shall prostrate before you.  Oh! Supreme Lord who assumes various incarnations and performs impossible tasks for the welfare of the souls, with no attachment and whose navel is the source of my birth, I shall prostrate before you.  Oh! Lakshmipathi, Kindly ignite my intellect to perform the task of creation at your will.   ”  


The Supreme Lord replied “ Oh! Vedagarbha, the whole Universe and its living and non-livings are the creation of mine.  Oh! Bhraman, continue your austerities and penances, you will come to know the real form of me and the Universe created by me.  The worshiper who realizes the all-pervading nature of me would get rid of all the sins instantly, he would get freed from the piousness as well the sins which cause rebirth.  The worshiper who realizes the real nature of the soul as supreme Lord, would unite with me instantly and attain Moksha.  I am pleased with your devotion.  Whoever eulogize me with these hymns contemplating upon my Nirguna as well as Sagunaroopa would attain my eternal grace.  People who engage in righteous deeds such as the construction of wells, ponds, the performance of charities, Yaga, Yoga, meditation, and penances would attain my permanent grace.  There is no difference between me and you, therefore create the three worlds and its living beings.” Lord Narayana blessed Lord Bhrama with Chathushloki Bhagavath as a tool for creation and returned to Yoganidra/cosmic sleep.
