dattaswami Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Narayana means the abode of spiritual – knowledge, He is Satguru Narayana is very important name, - often spoken by Ramanuja and Madhva. Even Acharya of Shankara peetham – writes the name Narayana only In the end of his letter, name of God – is applicable to Him with sense. Our names are only for identification, - the sense is not applicable to us. A person called as Harishchandra – speaks always lies throughout life! Narayana means the abode of spiritual – knowledge, He is Satguru. Shankha represents the throat, - poets give shankha as its simile. Throat is the instrument for preaching – the spiritual knowledge. Chakra is called as Sudarshana, - it means good view or clarity. It cuts misinterpretations, demons, - similarly Damaruka and Trisula. Garland of beads indicates repetition – of concept in several angles and The sacred water jug indicates - the purity of soul through knowledge. All these six are symbolic – representations seen in six hands of Datta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
