Acharya Madhva continues his sthothra describing the unique and
unmatched qualities of the Supreme Being along with exhortation to the
aspirant to start on the path of Sadhana and devotion without any delay.
In the present rendering, I have made use of the Itrans rendering of
the original sent to me by Shrisha Rao. But I have given the more
readable normal version to take care of pronunciation problems just
below.
1.He has His essential nature and body consisting of Bliss and Knowledge
etc which are unique to Him and different from those in any body else
(Vilakshana). His strength is beyond compare in quality and quantity. He
is full of other infinite auspicious attributes. He is the greatest. He
has no aging or death. He removes completely sorrow and misery from His
devotees. He is the best amongst all those worthy of being prayed to.
Such a God, who is also the Lord of Kamalaa may take care of us.
2.Hari never sleeps, but He is always full of Bliss. Therefore, the Vedas
have called Him as being of the essence of Bliss. His desire that the
world should be born, created the world. He has been called as the
essence of extraordinary Jnana and the controller of all sensory organs
(Indriyas)
3.God creates the world of so many wonders making use of many instruments
or materials. Therefore, He has extraordinary and incomparable abilities
(Parashakthi). For the same reason, He is also full of all auspicious
qualities and is the Greatest person. Only those who meditate on His
great Swaroopa consisting of Bliss (which is entirely different and
superior to that of the others) will attain His abode of bliss.
4.Hari's Swaroopa is pure (without evil or other impurities), without
Vikara or change due to birth, aging, death etc., supreme, self
fulfilled with bliss and of the colour of and brighter than the rising
Sun. When one meditates on Him, the mind and Indriyas (sensory organs)
will automatically get purified. (How can they remain impure ?)
5.This is addressed to the devotee :
Oh. Devotee, use with bravery the
swords of pure knowledge and understanding which are sharpened by being
engaged against the grindstones of the Vedas (Shasthras) to cut through
the powerful enemy of Ajnana covering over your own swaroopa giving rise
to evil such as Kama etc. Worship the eternal Lord Hari who is the Lord
of all.
6.He creates, protects and destroys the gods who are themselves known as
creators of the world like Brahma, Shiva, Indra, Surya and others. Those
who worship Him with devotion are taken to His own abode (Mukthi).
(This is done in every Kalpa).
7.Hari the Lord of Ramaa has His swaroopa of auspicious qualities like
Bliss, Jnana etc each of which is complete, matchless and infinite.
There was never any person who was superior or equal to Him in the past.
Such a person is not there at present and will not be there in future.
8.In this manner, the Muni known as Ananda Tirtha composed this sthothra
of Hari as a means of destroying Ajnana. Who ever , therefore recites
this will without any doubt secure the pure bliss of Mukthi
