न च प्राणसंज्ञो न वै पञ्चवायुः
न वा सप्तधातुः न वा पञ्चकोशः ।
न वाक्पाणिपादं न चोपस्थपायु
चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥२॥
na cha prana sangyo na vai pancha vayuhu
na va sapta dhatur na va pancha koshah
na vak pani-padam na chopastha payu
chidananda rupah shivo'ham shivo'ha
I am not the breath, nor the five elements,
I am not matter, nor the 5 sheaths of consciousness
Nor am I the speech, the hands, or the feet,
I am the form of consciousness and bliss,
I am the eternal Shiva...

While its true that no one can reach that hightened realms of understanding and propounding the paratattwam as best as Shree AadiShankaraachaarya.....
For that, as explained by sathguru ShreeChaaganTi gaaru,
" The utmost powerful Shree RudraNamakaChamakam chants have glorified him as
namahKaparthinaycha.....
namahVyuptakeashaayacha....
i.e.,
"Namaskaaram to the one who has huge matted hair..."
" Namaskaaram to the one who has his head tonsured..."
( As explained by sathguru ShreeChaaganTi gaaru, the named "Kaparthi" is an extremely powerful name to accumulate merit while on pilgrimages...
Mummaaru
"Kaparthi Kaparthi Kaparthi...." ane smaraNatoa teerthasnaanam kaavinchina vaari puNyam pippalaada maharishi srushTinchina kruthya harinchajaaladu......" )
So, even before Shree AadiShankaraachaarya avataaram has descended down to the earth as the son of an ascetic Brahmin couple named Shree
"ShivaGuru Aaryaamba" in the KaalaDi agrahaaram of Kerala..., it was very encryptedly stated in the ShreeRudram....
Because Lord Maheshwara resides as a Kaparthi in Kailaasam and in the form of a ShivaLingam across umpteen holy places of this universe...
( As a matter of fact, as known to those keen astronomical observers, the entire Universe, Milkyway, Galaxy, and whatever is the name given to the vast incomprehensible space realm out there, glows in the form of a gigantic ShivaLingam that can be visualized in a "BaanaLingam" when observed carefully while performing the Abhishekam with various fluids...
And the vyutpatti goes
" Leeyatay Gamyatay iti Lingam... "
It implies " that which subsumes everything in to it and that which exudes everything from it..."
Hence, if the space is an incomprehensible entity so would be the spirituality and Parameshwara, the all pervading invisible God. And that nirguNa niraakaara Maheshwara in the form of his 5 faced ShivaLingam...
Sadyoajaata : facing towards West
Aghora : facing towards South
Vaamadeva : facing towards North
Tatpurusha : facing towards East
Eeshaana : facing upwards towards the Skies.
out of his kindness and love towards the humanity and other living species, chose his Vaamadeva Vadanam to be available as saguna saakaara "ShreeMahaaVishnu" swaroopam so that all the living beings can worship a near-comprehensible Bhagawad tattwam by imparting a human like existence to that Paratattwam in order to make it available for us and our well being....
Its analogous to the raw golden ore getting transformed in to a nice wearable jewellery so that we can flaunt it's existence on us to take pride in recognizing it's grandeur adding beauty and elegance to our existence and thus naming it as a beautiful golden ornament...
Possessing that raw gold or gold biscuit, before getting transformed in to a nice golden ornament, couldn't be a reason for the above phenomenon of
" taking pride in recognizing the existence of a beautiful golden ornament worn by us..." because of it's niraakaara stithi...
But it's magnitude remains the same whether its an ornament or a raw gold biscuit...
Similarly, for most of the people, it is only after that Paratattwam takes / exhibits a magnificent name / form / traits etc, it would become a near-comprehensible BhagawadTattwam in order to take pride in it's worship to be blessed with all that we need...
Hence the phrase...
शिवाय विष्णु रूपाय शिव रूपाय विष्णवे |
शिवस्य हृदयं विष्णुं विष्णोश्च हृदयं शिवः ||
यथा शिवमयो विष्णुरेवं विष्णुमयः शिवः |
यथाsन्तरम् न पश्यामि तथा में स्वस्तिरायुषि|
Shivaaya Vishnu Roopaaya, Shiva Roopaaya Vishanave |
Shivasya Hrudayam Vishnur, Vishnuscha Hrudayam Shivaha ||
Yatha Shivamayo Vishnuhu, Yevam Vishnu Mayaha Shivaha |
Yathaantharam Na Paschyaami, Thatha Me Swasthi Ra Yushi ||
If our house has 5 rooms..say...
A hall room / living room....
A kitchen room...
A pooja room...
A master bedroom and
A child bedroom...
And if we clean only the pooja room daily and not other rooms, can someone make a statement that only our pooja room is the house and other rooms aren't..??
No...never...
Because, a clean and a well maintained pooja room is the prime source of various living energies required to sustain the healthy and prosperous lives of all it's inmates.... Hence the pooja room is visited almost daily to keep it as tidy as possible...
So is the case with the Maheshwara panchaasya praabhavam......
The North faced VaamaDeva vadanam of Maheshwara is the most effective form of pulling in the various requisite energies required for the universal well being of all the species and thus the ShreeMahaaVishnu swaroopa archaaraadhana has gained prominence in multiple ways of which the established "Paancharaatra" and "Vaikhaanasa" AagamaShaastroakta aaraadhana crafted by ShreeNaarayanaMaharshi and ShreeVikhanasaMaharshi are the most apt ones for this materialistic Kaliyugam to which the money is the driving factor for one and all....going by the phrase "Dhanamoolam idamjagath..."
It can be observed that it is none other than Lord Rudra, residing in the PaandavaTeertham near the GoGarbham Dam, that is the Ksheatrapaalaka of Tirumala temple with a small RudraShila kept in the NE part of the Dhwajastambha enclosure as his symbolic representation inside the TirumalaAalayam.....
Now that the Bhagawadtattwam has been explained as simpler as possible...
Let's proceed to the Bhagawad saguna saakaara saarasa Archaaswaroopa vaibhawam....
Why is that millions and millions of devotees thronging to the Tirumala temple find answers to their search, needs, quest, desire, solace and so on...
in the samoorthyaaraadhana of the
9 feet so called statue of
ShreeVenkatesha Parabrahmam....
( It is an apraakrutha ShreeVaishnavaSaaligraama Dhruvamoorthi that keeps capturing the Paratattwam to the best of it's capacities with 'Shatkaala Archana' (the 6 times' everyday worship) in the Garbhaalayam and the prescribed various daily and weekly sevas performed inside and outside the tirumala temple surroundings to the ShreeBhoosamayataMalayappa swaamy by being one of the 5 tirumala panchabera aaraadhana swaroopamulu...
In much simpler words, lord ShreeVenkateshwara standing mighty on the AanandaNilaya PadmapeeTham
in a posture named "Veerasthaanaka DhruvaMoorthi" is akin to a huge silent generator ( like Supernova etc...) that holds and supplies a vast amount of JeevaShakti to all those who seek refugee in it via the ShreeVaikhaanasaAagamokta worship procedures followed by the revered ShreeVaikhaanasa hereditary priests like
Shree RamanaDeekshitulu gaaru...
Shree RamakrusnaDeekshitulu gaaru...
Shree GopinaathaDeekshitulu gaaru...
etc... who are entitled to the GarbhaalayaMoolamoorthiArchana as per the roster sequence followed by TTD )
As a Qa Group Manager, I'll take the below example of a typical day to day software execution performed by me and my team to propound the paratattwa praabhawam via Samoortyaarchana.....
1. I have a decent 1TB storage / 64 GB RAM physical machine in my corporate computer lab....
2. By following a hypervisor technology, it has now been transformed in to a virtual images' server with all my team members getting a dedicated allotted VM with OS of their choice and other parameters like storage/RAM being dynamically adjustable...
3. Each of my team member is intelligent enough to transform that provided dedicated VM in to a containerized computing environment by installing a relevant container tech providers like Docker.
4. On a dedicated windows or a Unix VM, with the installed docker container technology, each VM is now capable of executing several software by pulling in the requiste "Docker Image" from a central Docker Repository / Registry.
5. With a pulled in "Docker Image" residing on the VM ( until it gets replenished with an updated version of that Docker Image from either a public or a private / corporate Docker Repository / Registry ), a dynamic Docker Container is spawnned on the VM to create an active computing environment and make it accessible to all the users belonging to a corporate network / domian via specific Docker Ports.
6. As long as an activated Docker Container ( via the command "docker run" ) is held by the Kernel of the OS on the VM, all the ' OS processes ' corresponding to that instance of the Docker Container are nothing but an entire software suite getting executed on the VM. It could be as small as a Java Gaming application or as big as an entire e-commerce cloud application suite based on the imprint captured by the pulled in 'Docker Image".
7. The moment all the docker containers are stopped, and the " docker " executable is made unavailable to the classpath, by nullifying the "DOCKER_HOME" global variable set on the VM, there wouldn't be any software running on that VM other than the bare OS with inactive Docker file system.
8. Now, tell me... is it the Physical Machine, or a VM carved off of the Hypervisor or the Container technology installed on top of the VM or the imprint captured by the container's image pulled on to the VM or the actual instance of that image getting executed as an active container, that is the vast e-comm cloud software we were accessing a while ago...??
9. The answer always remains a cascaded relative truth amongst these many multiple diverse layers of various software working in tandem to create an environment of a cohesive cloud computing platform in order to make it accessible and available to the generic users out there so that in a few mouse clicks on a dynamically rendered web page a successful action of
"an online purchase" gets fulfilled by the end user / customer. ..
10. So would be the case with Bhagawad samurtyaaraadhana... where-in after following multiple processes / rituals of the prescribed AagmaShaastram by the spiritual engineers known as GarbhaalayaArchaka / priests, the end user / customer, called a devotee, would be able to get the final result of
"BhagawadAnugraham" in the form of prasaadam ( Laddu, Pulihora, Dadyoadanam, Bellamannam, Sira, Mixed Vegetable Rice, Katpongal / MiriyaalaPongali etc....) that are offered as naivedyam to the activated paratattwam of the Aaveshita archaamoorthi, as per the followed tenets of the AagamaShaastram so that in a few gulps he/she can imbibe that paratattwa praabhawam in to them to be blessed with God's grace...
The magnitude of the aaveshitaparatattwam in to the ArchaaMoorthy always remains immeasurable because it follows a DC pattern and not an AC pattern while it gets accumulated in to the Devataamoorthy being worshipped by the hereditary priest...
In the high magnitude temples like Tirumala Aanandanilayam....extreme care is taken in handling / sustaining / distributing that paratattwam......
Because if normal voltage represented by "V" denotes the typical 230 V household electric usage...
appending "H" to that "V" becomes "HV", and that high voltage electric usage is the analogy for Tirumala Garbhaalaya Archaaraadhana.....
If there is an issue in the typical regular
230 V usage in our house, it will affect only us and our house....
But if there is an issue in the HV held by a huge electric transformer serving a colony, it will affect a much wider section...
So is the case with temples like Tirumala etc.. that supply the required spiritual HV for several thousands of miles of their vicinity / existence based on the prayers of a devotee....
It may be possible to approximately quantify the worldly electricity with the formula V=IR, however it isn't feasible to have a similar formula incase of the spiritual world for that it is always immeasurable and is propounded as
"Sat Chith Aananda Swaaroopam" and thus it is said...
चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥२॥
