jagadāpyāyana! ān̄janēya!

Post by VK RAMAN »

I listened to the rendition of the following by Sri Ganapati Sachchidananda Swamiji. I like to have the meaning of this Anjaneya bhajan

pallavi:
jagadāpyāyana! ān̄janēya!
vimala! niran̄jana! ān̄janēya!

caraṇaṁ:
jayajaya mūla prāṇēśa!
mūlāvidyā parināśa!
jayajaya brahma jñānēśa!
śuddhajñāna pratibhāsa! …1

nitya vivēcana! kapivīra!
snēha guṇānvita! rāmasakha!
kānti mayādbhuta kamanīya!
apratihata gati sampanna! …2

tvaṁ hi marutsuta nāmāsi
akhila marudgaṇa sārōsi
duḥkha nivāraṇa śīlōsi
nūnaṁ praṇavākārōsi …3

hanumān tvaṁ ripu sanhārī
harihararūpī śubhakārī
vēdaśikhātaṭa san̄cārī
sacidānanda sthitidhārī! …4

VKR,
The contextual meaning is given below based solely on the text provided by you, which in some places may be different as actually composed.

P: Anjaneya who pervades the world, blemishless and clean.

C1 : Victory to you the original life giver, the destroyer of ignorance ( muula avidyaa parinaasha ) being the learned with the microcosmic & macrocosmic essentials of the universe.

C2 : Always distinctive warrior of the monkey race, amicable and confidant of Raama, one who has mystical mellowed glow ( halo ) and capable of achieving unsurpassable speeds.

C3 : You are the one bearing the name as son of the wind, ( second line is a bit doubtful - may require check ), destroyer of all grief, essentially having the basic form always fresh

C4 : Hey one with big jaws ( hanumaan ) , you are the destroyer of enemies, having the essential qualities of Shiva & Vishnu and doer of good , dweller of the peak of mountain of vedas, possessor of the state of placidity and equanimity.

C3 second line may become clearer with this Wikipedia quote:
In Hinduism the Marutas (Sanskrit: मरुत), also known as the Marutagana and sometimes identified with Rudras, are storm deities and sons of Rudra and Prisni and attendants of Indra, an ancient Vedic deity who later came to be identified with Shiva. The number of Maruts varies from 27 to sixty (three times sixty in RV 8.96.8 ). They are very violent and aggressive, described as armed with golden weapons i.e. lightning and thunderbolts, as having iron teeth and roaring like lions, as residing in the north, as riding in golden chariots drawn by ruddy horses.

I know what the Marut ganas were. But still the actual intention of the C3 second line is not clear. "saarosi" should mean what ? saara: = essence or gist or juice which doesn't gel so well with marutgana.

The marutgana is a part of the Shiva ganas. The first circle or core being the Pramadhaganas after Nandi, Bhringi, etc.
