144. OM BHOJANAYA NAMA: ॐ भोजनाय नम:
Devotees enjoy His experience sweetly, like eating.
Lord Sri Hayagriva has the white lustre of milk-quartz [ஸ்படிகம்] and is on a white lotus flower, with Sri Saraswati. Here, Saraswati does not indicate the consort of lord Brahma; but it denotes Sri Maha Lakshmi. Once Vedas were stolen away from lord Brahma, by the two demons Madhu and Kaitapa. This made Brahma extremely sorrowful, as he could not perform his creation duty. The Lord took the Sri Hayagriva form and after destroying the demons, He taught Vedas to lord Brahma. Svetasvopanishad is important. Sveta + asva + upanishad = Upanishad of White Horse [faced Sri Hayagriva]. By worshiping Sri Hayagriva we can destroy our ignorance. It is more important to worship the Lord on September 12th, as it is Shravana [star] Dvadashi. The Lord is like tasty food for His devotees. For Alwar the Lord was the food, water and tasty eatables [உண்ணும் சோறு பருகும் நீர் தின்னும் வெற்றிலை]. We have to consume only food offered to the Lord. Perialwar says he remains like without food [பட்டினி நாள்] on those days he could not see Him or chant His names.
