Narayaneeyam : An Introduction

The study of a literary work is rendered more interesting, instructive and


purposeful by acquiring some knowledge about the work itself and its
author. To start with, then, a few words about the author of
Narayaneeyam will be appropriate.

This mini-epic is a masterly abridgement of Sage Veda Vyasa's magnum


opus, Shrimad Bhagavatam. As in the larger epic, the central theme of
Narayaneeyam is Bhakti or devotion to the Supreme Power, personified by
Bhagavan Shree Mahavishnu. At the same time, adhering to the schema of
the Bhagavatham, Narayaneeyam expounds the essence of other systems
of Indian philosophy, mainly, Jnyanayoga, Karmayoga and Sankhya, at the
appropriate places while laying special emphasis on the over-riding
supremacy of Bhaktiyoga, or the path of devotion, over all other means to
attain Moksha (Nirvana, or Salvation), which means unification,
integration and dissolution of the individual soul or jeeva in the Brahman,
the Cosmic Unity, the One without a second.

With his vast background of learning of the Scriptures, and his profound
grasp of their different systems and aspects, besides Sanskrit grammar
and prosody, Bhattathiri has produced a compendium of the larger epic,
which faithfully adumbrates all the vital constituents of the original in a
lucid style, easy for lay people to understand the abstruse concepts of
philosophy, while, at the same time, highlighting those incidents and
episodes that help to strengthen and deepen the reader's faith in the
basic theme of Bhakti, and practice its essential steps in daily life.

Some idea of Bhattathiri's dexterity in condensing vast material into a


small compass can be gleaned from the following examples:

1. Dasakam 15 : This dasakam sets out in ten verses the essence of


Kapila's (an incarnation of the Lord Himself) advice to his mother,
Devahuti, on the Sankhya, which, in the Bhagavatham, spans ten
chapters (Nos. 24 to 33) of the third Skanda (or Canto).
2. Dasakams 34 and 35 : The whole of the Ramayana epic of Valmiki is
covered in twenty verses, as against two chapters of the 9th Canto
in the Bhagavatham, and 24000 lines in Valmiki Ramayanam.
3. Dasakam 86, verse 6 : This sets out in a single verse, the essence of
the Lord's teaching to Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra,
which spans 18 chapters of the Bhagavadgeeta.
4. Dasakam 93 : This dasakam briefly deals with the 25 teachers or
preceptors, all found in nature, and the lessons to be learned from
each one of them, for either emulation or avoidance in daily life by a
devotee.
5. Dasakam 95, Verse 8 : In this verse, Bhattathiri gives an graphic,
encapsulated head-to-foot description of the Lord, in an easy-
flowing cascade of phrases, that are simple and easy to memorise
and also recall for constant chanting and meditation.

In literary merit, the Narayaneeyam holds pride of place in Sanskrit


poetry, at par with the works of Kalidasa and other eminent poets. It is
divided into 100 Dasakams, most of which comprise ten shlokams (verses)
each - with a few of them running into 11, 12 or 13 verses; the maximum
number being 15 verses in Dasakam 4, and a solitary Dasakam (Dasakam
65) comprising 9 verses. The final verse of every Dasakam concludes with
an invocation to the Lord of Guruvayur to cure him of all his illnesses and
protect him from all afflictions and sorrows. In all, the Narayaneeyam
consists of 1034 verses. Some versions include two extra verses at the
end of Dasakam 45, making a total of 1036 verses.

A noteworthy feature of this work is the copious and judicious


employment of literary embellishments or Alankarams and Vrittams or
metres to suit the context, besides devices like yamakam and anuprasam.
These heighten the impact of the scenes or events described, on the
reader, and make them come alive before his mind's eye. As many as 26
different metres have been used, some of them extensively and others
sparingly. Some of the more notable instances are set out below:

1. The majestic "Sardulavikriditam" (meaning gambolling of


tigers/leopards) brings out the awesome grandeur of the Lord's
incarnation as Narasimha (half-man, half-lion) in Dasakam 25;
Krishna's entry into Mathura in Dasakam 74 (with its earth-
shakingly ominous import to the Lord's enemies), and many other
scenes and events.
2. The superbly balanced and serene "Sragdhara", to depict the events
leading up to the Mahabharata war and the war itself (Dasakam 86);
expounding the path of Devotion (Bhaktimarga) from Dasakam 91
onwards. This metre has also been used in Dasakam 34 and 35,
giving a highly condensed account of the Lord's incarnation as Shri
Rama, and in many other places (mostly selected verses) in
conformity with the context.
3. The dancing "Totaka" and the lilting "Drutavilambita" metres in
Dasakams 55 and 56, respectively to describe Krishna's dance on
the hood of the serpent Kaliya. In these dasakams, the reader gets
a graphic picture of the dance, unsurpassed in poetic beauty and
grandeur, with a fascinating, onomatopaeic harmony between sound
and sense. The Drutavilambita metre is employed also in many other
dasakams, notably Dasakams 78 and 79, describing Rukmini's
yearning for union with her Lord, and her wedding.
4. Last, but not least, the "Kusumamanjari" metre, with its charmingly
billowing pace of alternating long and short syllables, used in the one
and only Dasakam 69, to depict the Rasakrida. Every one of the
eleven verses in this dasakam, is outstanding for its magnificent
resonance through the blending of sound and sense, between the
words and the action. Verse 4 is especially so, where the poet
creates a marvellous word-picture before the reader's eyes, of the
harmonious intertwining and blending of the notes flowing from
Krishna's flute with the lyrics and music, the rhythmic beat of the
percussion instruments, the tender footfalls and handclaps of the
dancers and the jingling of the bracelets worn by the Gopis.

The Narayaneeyam in unique in the conversational mode employed by the


poet, of addressing the Lord in the second person from start to finish.
According to legend, after setting out certain important incidents, or
making bold assumptions of the reason for them, Bhattathiri waited for
confirmation of the accuracy by a gesture from the Lord, as an 'asariri'
(disembodied voice) or nod of the head, before proceeding further. Two
such incidents may be seen in Dasakam 35, Verse 3, and Dasakam 45,
Verse 9.

In Dasakam 35, Verse 3, while narrating the successful mission of


Anjaneya to Lanka and his return with the crest-jewel of Shree Seetha,
the poet concludes by saying "Mouliratnam dadau te" (Gave Thee the
crest-jewel). Immediately, a doubt arose in his mind whether he had not
erred in saying "Thee" instead of "Rama", and he looked up at the Lord's
image. Legend has it that the Lord nodded His head, confirming that it
was indeed HE in the outward form of "Rama", to whom Anjaneya handed
over the crest-jewel.

In Dasakam 45, Verse 9, Bhattathiri makes a bold assertion that the Lord
resorted to taking the curd or butter and ghee by stealth from the
homes of the Gopis (cowherd women), instead of begging them for these,
after his humiliating experience of begging for paces of land from Bali in
the Vamana incarnation. It is said that through the voice of an "asariri"
(disembodied voice) emanating from the garbhagriha (Sanctum
Sanctorum), the Lord approved of the poet's assumption.

(Similar instances of direct communication with, and confirmation by the


Lord, have been cited in relation to the composition of "Geetagovindam"
by Jayadeva.)

Yet another attractive feature of this mini-epic is the depiction of


"Rasam" (flavour, essence, sentiment or mood), usually eight or nine in
number, which heighten the impact of narration. A few examples are given
below:

 Raudram - Fierce, terrible, wrathful or awesome aspect or mood.


o The Varaha Incarnation, Dasakam 12, 13
o The Narasimha Incarnation, Dasakam 25
 Sringaram - Love, amorousness, eroticism
o The Mohini Episode, Dasakam 29
o Rasakrida (build up to the Rasaleela and the
Rasaleela), Dasakams 65 to 69
 Veeram - Heroism, Valour, Prowess
o Slaying of Kumbhakarna and Ravana, Dasakam 35
o Parasurama's decimation of Kshatriyas, Dasakam 36
o Slaying of Kamsa and his henchmen, Dasakam 75
o Slaying of Narakasura, Dasakam 81
o Conquest of Bana (and fight with Siva and his Bhoota
hordes), Dasakam 82
o Slaying of Shishupala, Dasakam 85
o Slaying of Salwa and Dantavaktra, Dasakam 86
o Krishna's rushing at Bheeshma with the Sudarshana Chakra in
hand, as if enraged, during the Mahabharata war, Dasakam 86
o also, the Lord entering the womb of Uttara (assuming the size
of a big toe), in order to protect the embryo from the
Brahmashirsha missile released by Ashvatthama to
exterminate the Pandava clan, Dasakam 86.
 Hasyam - Mirth, amusement, jest, derision, ridicule
o Duryodhana's perplexity and confusion between firm floor and
water, while traversing the audience hall full of illusions, built
by Maya for the Pandavas, and the derisive laughter of
Draupadi and Bheema at Duryodhana's discomfiture, Dasakam
85
o The account of Lord Siva taking to his heels to escape from
Vrikasura who was pursuing him to test the efficacy of the
boon granted to him by Siva, and the derisive words spoken by
the Lord (in the guise of a clever Brahmachari), while
accosting Vrikasura and bringing about the latter's (self-
)destruction, Dasakam 89
 Karuna - Compassion, pathos, tenderness
o Krishna's departure from Brindavan for Mathura, leaving the
Gopis forlorn, Dasakam 73
o Uddhava's errand to Gokulam to console the Gopis, Dasakam
76
o The wailing of the brahmin over the repeated loss of his sons
immediately after birth, in the Santanagopalan episode,
Dasakam 88.
 Adbhutam - Wonder, astonishment, miraculousness
o The Lord's growth from the form of a dwarf to His gigantic
Cosmic form encompassing all the worlds with two steps of His
feet, in the Vamana incarnation, Dasakam 31
 Bhayam - Fear, alarm, fright, terror
o Kamsa's panic reaction to the divine voice ("asariri")
foretelling his death at the hands of Devaki's eighth son, and
his manifold acts seeking to avert his doom, enventually
proving futile and ending in his death, Dasakam 37 onwards up
to Dasakam 75.

The Narayaneeyam adheres closely to the Bhaagavatham in its structure


and sequence of narration. Like the larger epic, this is also subdivided into
Skandams (Cantos). The first nine skandams of the Bhagavatham are
reflected in the same number of skandams in the shorter work, spanning
Dasakams 1 to 36. The tenth skandam, spanning Dasakams 37 to 90,
corresponds to the tenth skandam of the Bhagavatham. The eleventh
skandam, Dasakams 91 to 97 (Verse 4) covers the entire matter contained
in the eleventh skandam of the Bhagavatham. Verses 5 to 10 of Dasakam
97 contain an account of Sage Markandeya and his vision of the Lord in
the form of a child of indescribable beauty and charm lying on a banyan
leaf, with its toe placed in its mouth, floating on the waters of the deluge.
Dasakam 98 incorporates the poet's meditation on the Lord's abstract,
incorporeal (Nishkala or Nirguna) form and his supplications to the Lord.
Dasakam 99 incorporates the mantras of the Rig Veda in praise of the
glory of the Lord. Dasakam 100 is the climax of the whole Narayaneeyam,
wherein the poet gives a glowing and graphic description of the dazzling
vision of the Lord which was vouchsafed to him on the 100th day. The
head-to-foot picturisation of the Lord in this Dasakam is unrivalled for
its beauty, grandeur and vividness. Its perusal uplifts the reader to
heights of devotional ecstasy. In the eleventh (and final) stanza of this
Dasakam, the poet explains the rationale of the title, Narayaneeyam, by
saying that it is apt in two senses, namely, the central theme which is
Lord Narayana, and the narrator whose name is also Narayana. The
concluding words of this stanza "ayurarogyasaukhyam" constitute a code,
which has been decoded by scholars to indicate the date of the work.

Conclusion

To sum up, the Narayaneeyam of Narayana Bhattathiri, which presents to mankind


in general and to the Supreme Lord's devotees (Vaishnavajana) in particular, an
encapsulated version of Sage Vyasa's mammoth epic, Srimad Bhaagavatham. setting
out its distilled essence in easily assimilable form and simple idiom, is, at once, a
work of outstanding literary and artistic merit, which is eminently suitable for
daily recitation for attaining mental peace and tranquillity in this world of multiple
tensions, pulls and pressures. While it abounds, from beginning to end, in verses of
unsurpassed beauty and devotional fervour, three Dasakams are worth highlighting
as the most outstanding; these are: 1. Dasakam 69 - Rasakrida - for its rhythmic
flow of verses creating a charming picturisation of the Rasa Dance establishing the
supremacy of selfless, all-encompassing and undemanding love of the individual soul
(jeeva) to the Cosmic soul (Brahman) in the form of Krishna, over all other modes
for the attainment of Liberation. 2. Dasakam 98 - Adoration of the Supreme
Brahman - for its philosophic content. that is to say, quintessence of the profound
Vedantic concept of the non-dual Brahman, adumbrating and transcending the
SPACE-TIME continuum and as EXISTENCE-CONSCIOUSNESS-BLISS
ABSOLUTE (SAT-CHIT-ANANDA) as the sole Reality and all else in this
phenomenal universe as ephemeral and illusory. 3. Last but not least, Dasakam 100 -
Head-to-foot description of the Lord - which represents the very peak of
devotional fervour and its eventual fulfilment.

Introduction to Narayaneeyam
The Narayaneeyam, a great Sanskrit epic, is a brilliant condensation in
1036 shlokams (stanzas) of the great epic Bhaagavatham composed by
Sage Vyaasa. The Bhaagavatham describes the entire Hindu beliefs and philosophy
of the origin of the Universe and the purpose of human existence. It also
describes the various incarnations of the Supreme Being to re-establish
righteousness and order in the Universe from time to time. According to Hindu
thought, all beings are subject to continual cycles of birth-life-death-
rebirth. Bhaagavatham contains advice and instructions for human beings to
achieve Moksha (Salvation) to break out of this eternal cycle and attain Union with
the Supreme Being at His Lotus-Feet

The central theme of Narayaneeyam is Bhakti (devotion). In literary merit,


the Narayaneeyam holds pride of place in Sanskrit poetry, at par with the works of
Kalidasa and other eminent poets. It is divided into 100 Dasakams, most of which
comprise ten shlokams each. (More details.....)

This devotional epic was composed by Melpathur Narayana Bhattapada (also


referred to as Bhattathiri) in the ninth decade of the 16th century A.D. Scholars
have reckoned, with the aid of internal evidence in the epic
itself, that the Narayaneeyam was completed on the 28th day of Vrischigam month
of the Malayalam (Kollam) Era 763 (approximately November-December, 1587
A.D.).

According to legend, Bhattathiri acquired the dreaded condition of


paralysis, voluntarily, by praying to the Lord Krishna, for transferring the
disease to him from his teacher of Sanskrit grammar, Achyuta Pisharoty,
who had been suffering from it, thereby relieving his Guru from the
ailment. Subsequently, Bhattathiri had himself carried to the temple of
Lord Krishna at Guruvayur, and lying prostrate before the Lord, he sought
shelter and relief at the Lord's Lotus-Feet.

Every day, Bhattathiri composed one Dasakam (generallly consisting of


ten shlokams). The final verse of every Dasakam concludes with an invocation to
the Lord of Guruvayur to cure him of all his illnesses and protect him from all
afflictions and sorrows.

On the hundredth day, he is believed to have had a


dazzling Darshan (Vision) of the Lord himself in Saakara (material) form
and was cured of his ailment. In the final (100th)Dasakam, Bhattathiri
has given a graphic head-to-foot description (in picturesque language) of
the Lord's form as Venugopala , and of his wonderful, soul-stirring and
ecstatic experience.
