105. OM VASAVE NAMA: ॐ वसवे नम:
Lives in devotees' mind with love.
Ayodya is considered as a part of Sri Vaikuntam. That was because Ikshvaku kula dhana [wealth of Ikshvaku dynasty] Sri Ranganatha wanted to settle in this world and He wanted an appropriate place. The Lord at the beginning of Creations, gave the idol of Sri Ranganatha [திவ்ய மங்கள விக்ரஹம்] to lord Brahma to worship and do his duty. Lord Brahma after sometime gave the Lord to lord Surya to worship and it became the property of that dynasty, Raghu vamsam. Then this idol was installed in Ayodhya. Valmiki says that Sri Rama along with Sri Sita worshiped Sri Ranganatha. This was later gifted to Vibheeshana, after Pattabhishekam. Vibheeshana later installed it amidst the twin river of Kaveri, now known as Srirangam. Thus Ayodhya and Srirangam are connected. Today's [18th July, 2008] Divine name is vasu [வஸு]. Vasu also means wealth. He lives permanently in the hearts of His devotees and they consider Him as the greatest wealth. When Viswamitra requested Dasaratha that Sri Rama be deputed with him to guard yagna, Dasaratha felt the misery of separation, though for just ten days only. But his misery went beyond imagination when Kaikeyi demanded the exile of Sri Rama for Fourteen years. Not only Dasaratha, every living being, including trees, were sunk in sorrow. Entities in our body are 24 [prakruti, mahat, ahankaram, etc.]. The 25th entity is our soul, Jeevatma and the Lord, residing in every Atman is the 26th entity. Even if one is counting something, the moment he counts 26, it seems the Lord appears as He is waiting to show Him to His devotees. Nammalwar says that he was casually mentioning the name Thirumaliruncholai, and the Lord immediately occupied Alwar's mind as the Alwar mentioned His residing place. He can not dream of separation from His devotees nor they can.
Vrushakapi is considered as a mantra and it realizes all our wish. Similarly, Ameyatma also is a mantra and can get us good status, when chanted.
