SVS 170 [Sadayogi - 167] (18.3)

167. OM SADAYOGINE NAMA: ॐ सदायोगिने नम:
Always enthusiastic in the actions mentioned earlier.

In the Divine name Vaidya, we learnt that the Lord is Doctor and Medicine. Sadayogi means always alert. In many temples the Lord is in reclining pose. It gives an impression that the Lord is sleeping. But actually, He is alert and scholars say pretending to sleep [தூங்குவான் போல் யோகு செய்யும்]. Alert in protecting this Universe. King Bhoja, once realized that his end was nearing and so after handing over the Kingdom, he decided to write about Sri Rama in gadyam [prose order] and padyam [poetic]. The latter was Champu Ramayana. In that he deploys the word sadayogi. He is always alert to the distress calls of His devotees, like Draupati or Prahalada. Some people asked Swami Parashara Bhatta, to suggest easy way to remember the Lord. He told them to remember beach. When Sri Rama wanted to cross the ocean to reach Lanka, monkeys helped in constructing bridge. In the daytime they were busy in building the dam and in the night they were asleep in tiredness. At that time Sri Rama and Lakshmana were guarding the monkeys, with bow and arrows in hand. Because Demons are nisacharas, that is active in night. By remembering beach we can always remember that He is always there to protect.
