171. OM ATHEENDRIYAYA NAMA: ॐ अतीन्द्रियाय नामा:
Today's [21stOctober 2008] lecture is from Sri Rama sannidhi in Narasingapuram, now known as Chanaparatti, Karur district. This village was granted to Rani [queen] Mangammal's commander Chennappa Reddy. It is a small temple with Sri Rama along with Sri Sita and Lakshmana. This temple also needs help from devotees for renovation. Athindriya means more excelling than Indra; and this is what was explained in the last few Divine names. Now, the Lord's Six important qualities [gyana, shakti, bala, aiswarya, veera and tejas] are described. in the Divine name 56 [SVS 62] agrahaya means not graspable. Same meaning is understood here. We can not see with our eyes the Lord, though we see Him in Archa [Idol] form in temples. Similarly, our eyes or other sense organs and mind can not comprehend Him. Only with His blessings we can visualize Him. For this pure mind is needed.
