99. OM SIDDHIYE NAMA: ॐ सिद्धिये नम:
He is the Objective of means.
Near Chakra theertham, in Naimisharanyam, the Brindavanam of Sri Vansatakopa Sri Veeraraghava Satakopa Yatindra Mahadesikan [43rd Jeer of Sri Ahobila Mutt] is there. The Lord Sri Lakshmi Narasimha and the idol of the Jeer are here. This Jeer belonged to a village Devanarvilagam [தேவனார்விளாகம்], near Sri Oppiliappan Koil. His ancestral house is preserved and we should maintain such Acharyas' belongings with the same care as we do of the Lord's. The last Divine name indicated that He is siddha or everlasting. The Lord is the Objective of various means by which we try to find Him. He is the Ultimate objective of all searches we make. Once we attain Him, do we need any other? We pray Him to fulfill our wishes; but these wishes should be only for attaining Him. That makes Him very happy and He decides to make our living happy and smooth. Siddhi means achieving the result or ultimate stage. We say some persons have attained siddhi. When in Dhandakaranya all sages wanted to enjoy being with Lord Sri Rama, He told that their desires would be fulfilled in His next avatar. As Gopikas, they enjoyed the company of Sri Krishna. Compared to this other siddhis like flying or walking on water, etc., are nothing and in a way hindrance. These superhuman feats make one haughty. Viswamitra sought the help of Sri Rama, and the Lord followed the sage with folded hands.
