139. OM CHATURATMANE NAMA: ॐ चतुरात्मने नम:
Having the Four Vyuhamurti -Vasudeva, Sankarshana, Pradhyumna and Aniruddha.
140. OM CHATURVYUHAYA NAMA: ॐ चतुर्व्यूहाय नम:
In the above Four Forms, possessing jagrat, swapnam, sushupti and turyam stages.
We are in Dasavatara sannidhi in Srirangam. In mantra mahodhadhi, worshiping Sri Narasimha is elaborately explained. Worshiping Him will give the same pleasure as seeing Thousands of Moon at the same time. Delightfully seated on His left lap, Sri Lakshmi looks at Him with pride. To understand the Four Vyuha murthy, one has to seek a proper Acharya and get detailed explanation. Very superficially we can understand these Divine names. Jagrath is the awakening state [opposed to sleeping]. Next is the intermediate stage between sleep and awake. Because in swapna or dreams, our mind is still awake. Sushupti is sleep, when even mind is at rest. Turyam is unconsciousness or fainted state. How they are related to the Vyuhamurthi is very complicated and has to be learnt in detail from an Acharya.
