In Pasuram five of Thiruppavai, the benefits of Namasakerthana are described, said TN Aravamuda Thhhathachharar in a speech. The effectiveness of Namasakerthana is in the fact that every name of Mr. Narayana has a reason that has been. And those reasons have to do with their inhabitants auspicious qualities, or Kalyana grun, as they are called. While we sing their names, in fact, we are celebrating one or another of their qualities. He is a ‘Maya’, says Andal in this new. In fact, Krishna deserved this name, due to his many incredible acts. At the time he was born, the shackles fell from the hands of his father Vasudeva. Wasn’t this a supernatural feat? Just when he was a child, he killed Kamsa, another impossible task for any common mortal. And yet, this Krishna, which was demonstrated through the Sun was the Supreme, also chose to grow in the middle of Gokula’s jeans.
He is the one who cannot be desired even by the wise, who has made penance for years. But he was never far from the Gopas and Gopikas. Doesn’t such simplicity make Maya? Andal uses the name Damodara in this Pasuram. Damodara is a Krishna name that exemplifies its simplicity. It is a reference to his tied by Yasoda. He proudly carries the scar of this episode, because it was not Yasoda who tied it. The tied happened because hey wanted it. His Saulabhya was such. Devaki became the most blessed mother, because he took him in his uterus. If he honored Devaki in this way, the honest Yasoda by allowing her to tie him. When we fix our minds in their qualities and sing their names, the fire of such devotion burns our sins. Only the sins that we are likely to commit without knowing it in the future, destroy us through Namasakerthana.
