Bhagavadshatanamavali Dramidopanishad Sara Introduction:
The twin works Dramidopanishad sara and Dramidopanishad tatparya ratnavali by Sri Vedanta Desika are the essence and summary of 1102 verses or pasurams by Sri Nammazhwar celebrated under the name of Thiruvaimozhi. Sri Vedanta Desika calls Thiruvaimozhi “sarviya shakha” or Veda which is intended for everyone and says that Sri Nammazhwar discovered this “sarviya shakha”.
Sri Nammazhwar in his Thiruvaimozhi highlighted the countless auspicious attributes of God. Sri Vedanta Desika selected 1001 auspicious attributes from the verses sung by Sri Nammazhwar and put them in Dramidopanishad sara and Dramidopanishad tatparya ratnavali.
The main body of 20 sara Dramidopanishad slokas composed of 26 slokas in total, presents the quintessence of the ten shatakas or centuries of Thiruvaimozhi. The 100 verses of Dramidopanishad tatparya ratnavali summarize more than a thousand pasurams of Sri Nammazhwar. The essence and philosophy contained in each Thiruvaimozhi as a dashaka or decomposition of ten stanzas is summarized in a shloka by Sri Vedanta Desika.
A new collection of a thousand names was selected and invented from this by extracting an appropriate name of God from each of the ten stanzas that make up the dashaka, together forming the sahasranama.
The ten auspicious attributes selected from each dashaka will establish a main attribute of the Lord, which together form the shatanama.
The ten main attributes chosen in each shataka give ten very important attributes of the Lord, these form the dashanama.
These lead to the main auspicious attribute of God on which depends the realization of the highest human aspiration to free oneself from the slavery of Karma, equality with divine beings and brotherhood with others.
Sri Vedanta Desika has given for the benefit of mumukshus the one name containing the all-important chief auspicious attribute of the Lord which can be repeated and realized even by those who have very little time at their disposal for Puja. This is – OM devaya shrishaya svasiddheH karanaya namah. This shows that the Lord is himself both the End and the means… the Goal as well as the Way.
Based on Sri Nammazhwar’s Thiruvaimozhi in Tamil and Sri Vedanta Desika’s Dramidopanishad sira and Dramidopanishad titparya ratnivali in Sanskrit, these names have the combined flavor and the joint aroma of what is called Ubhaya Vedanta or the dual philosophy emboded in the northern tongue of Sanskrit and in the southern tongue of Tamil. The work is thus typically South Indian and truly representative of Ubhaya Vedanta Vaishnavism.
