Sriranga Gadyam
One of the great qualities of an Acharya is just not to teach but lead the way by practicing his teachings. Bhagawat Sri Ramanuja excelled in it. He composed Gadya Thrayam consisting of Sharanagathi Gadyam, Sri Ranga Gadyam and Sri Vaigunda Gadyam and sang it in front of Nam Perumal and Peria Piratti on
Panguni uthiram day, the only day Piran and Piratti give darshan together in Serthi festival every year. Sri Ramanuja explains the approach to Saranagathi through Gadya Thrayam.
The 66th sloka of 18th Chapter of Bhagavad Gita is Charma Sloka which Lord Krishna teaches Arjuna.
Sarvadharman Parityajya Mam Ekam Saranam Vraja |
Aham tva Sarva Papebhyo Mokshayishyami Masuchaha ||
Lord Krishna advises that giving up all the means (Upayams) to obtain Moksha, treating Lord Krishna as the only means and surrender to Him. Then Lord Krishna would release the surrendered from all sins.
Sri Ramanuja explains the process of surrender through Gadya Thrayam.
Sharanagathi Gadyam consists of three parts. In the first part, Sri Ramanuja surrenders to Peria Piratti. In the scond part, Sri Rananayaki fully satisfied with Sri Ramanuja's total surrender, blesses him with success in his surrender to Nam Perumal. In the third part, Sri Ramanuja Surrenders to Nam Perumal. Satisfied with Sri Ramanuaja's unqualified total surrender of Sri Ramanuja, Nam Perumal repeats whatever Sri Ramanuja had earlier as confirmation of His acceptance.
Sri Ranga Gadyam is a shortened version of Sharangathi Gadyam meant for daily chanting. Sri Ranga Gadyam contains the entire essence of Sharangathi Gadyam.
The attached video presentation is a chanting of Sri Ranga Gadyam. Ashtaksaram,
Dwayam and Charma Slokam precede chanting of Sri Ranga Gadyam followed by "Kayena
Vacha" and "Yadkshara Pada".
