My 100th Blog post and narayaneeyam sampoornam

 Here's a journal entry that weaves in today's milestone naturally:

A Day of Gratitude

August 1st 2026

Today has been a truly special day ,one that I know I will always cherish.

As we successfully completed the Sampoorna Narayaneeyam, my heart was filled with an indescribable sense of peace, gratitude, and joy. What makes this day even more memorable is that it also marks my 100th blog post. It feels as though these two milestones were meant to come together, reminding me how beautifully life unfolds through His grace.

When I look back, I see a little girl who simply loved listening to Krishna stories. Every Sunday, our family would gather to watch Mahabharat on Doordarshan. The title song, "Idhuthan Mahabharata Kathai", still lingers in my heart, carrying the warmth of those precious childhood memories.

Krishna Jayanthi was always my favorite celebration. I would happily draw tiny Krishna footprints around the house, imagining Him walking into our home. My sister would dress up as Krishna, and I would become Radha. Those moments of innocence and devotion are memories we continue to treasure.

At that time, I never imagined that those small expressions of love would one day blossom into a lifelong spiritual journey. Looking back now, I realize that every story I heard, every song I sang, every footprint I drew, and every prayer I whispered quietly nurtured my bond with Krishna.

By His infinite grace, I have now completed learning all 100 Dasakams (1034 verses) of the Narayaneeyam. And today, with the completion of the Sampoorna Narayaneeyam and my 100th blog post, I feel overwhelmed with gratitude. These are not accomplishments I can claim as my own they are blessings that He has lovingly allowed me to experience.

My heart bows in gratitude to Lord Krishna, to my gurus, my parents,  my family, and to My dear friend bhagavathy who has been part of this wonderful journey. I pray that this devotion continues to grow, that I remain humble, and that every word I write and every prayer I chant becomes an offering at His lotus feet.

We celebrated the Sampoornam with a day long chanting of full Narayaneeyam, 1034 verses with a group of women chanted together along with Pooja and neivedhyam at the end of each Dasakam.

Planning to share exact preparation list for Sampurna narayaneeyam event, executions and happenings of the day in detail in my upcoming posts.

🙏💙 Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum 💙🙏

Nayaraneeyam my learning journey part_6

Dasakam 33-50

Ambareesha charitham - clearly talks about importance of ekadesi vratham

                 tvadbhaktabadhamabhiviksya sudarsanam te                                        krtyanalam salabhayan munimanvadhavit                

God saw His follower was in danger. Instantly, His magic spinning disc (the             Sudarshana  Chakra) jumped into action. It destroyed the huge monster  as easily  as  a fire burns a tiny bug. Then, it turned around and chased the angry Dhurvasa away. Later when dhurvasa approaches bhagavan for  rescue,

 bhagavan says

     bhūyō bhavannilayamētya muniṃ namantaṃ

 prōchē bhavānahamṛṣē nanu bhaktadāsaḥ 

  I cannot save you, because I am a servant to my true followers

                        jñānaṃ tapaścha vinayānvitamēva mānyaṃ
                        yāhyambarīṣapadamēva bhajēti bhūman 

Your great knowledge and powers only deserve respect if you are humble.              So Go back right now and bow down to King Ambarisha. Only his                         forgiveness  can save you.

       

 Rama Charitham

        branch story from my Guru Mami 

                    when kaikeyi was young she took care of durvasa rishi , pleased with her respect rishi made her hand as strong as steel. years later when she went to battle with dasaratha their chariot wheel broke and was about to fell, immediately kaikeyi put her strong finger into the wheel and drove king to safety,In gratitude, Dasharatha granted       her two boons, which she later used to trigger Rama's vanavasam.

    When battadhri asks

dR^iShTvaa pluShTvaa cha lankaaM jhaTiti sa hanumaan mauliratnaM dadau te

how do i know you got sudamani then Guruvaryurappan opens his hand and shows it to battadhri.

------------------------------************************----------------------------

There are many different kinds of devotion to Bhagavan in Narayaneeyam. Even if we were angry or hateful toward him, he never despised us.

In the Rama avatar, 

Tadaka assaulted Rama out of rage, but Rama stopped her with his arrow. As soon as the arrow touched her, she was saved and cleaned.

Dasakam 51 to 75

Celebrates Lord Krishna's childhood and Bala and Kishora Leelas.Teaches that love and devotion are more powerful 

Demonstrates that bhagawan protects those who surrender to Him.Also Shows that even those who approach Him with negative intent can receive His grace.

In the Krishna avatar, 

1. Putana fed Krishna toxic milk while holding him like a fake mother, but Krishna nevertheless bestows moksha. Her body smelled like sandalwood as the locals burned it.

2. Kamsa was so terrified of Krishna that he thought about him nonstop, leaving no space for  negative ideas. Thus, after Kamsa's death, his soul united with Krishna.

Culminates in the Rasa Leela, which symbolizes the highest state of devotion where the individual soul experiences oneness with the Divine.

Dasakam 75 to 100

The final 25 Dasakams narrate Lord Krishna's later life, His divine mission, and culminate in the majestic praise of Lord Mahavishnu and a heartfelt prayer for liberation and good health.

patraṁ puṣhpaṁ phalaṁ toyaṁ yo me bhaktyā prayachchhati

tadahaṁ bhaktyupahṛitam aśhnāmi prayatātmanaḥ

Kuchela story tells how bhagawan loves his devotees if they show unconditional love to him .

He never sees how much money or richness we have but how of love and devotion one has towards him.

His anugruham is the only prasadham that we need to lead a healthy, happy and prosperous life.

98th dasakam is for karya siddhi that is all our wishes will  be fulfilled if we chant it for 11 days with sradha and bhakthi.

Battadhri pleaded guruvayoorappan after each dasakam to cure his illness.

After 99th dasakam bhagavan appears before in front of him.

Battadhri begins 100h dasakam with Agre pashyami , that is right in front of me am seeing bhagawan and starts describing bhagawan , he was filled with joy seeing bhagawan infront of his eyes as soon as he sees bhagawan all his sickness flew away.

Idhamiha gurutham ayurarogya soukiyam

Idhamiha gurutham ayurarogya soukiyam

Idhamiha gurutham ayurarogya soukiyam

We were blessed to complete our hundredth dasakam on 28th July 2026.

Our Namaskarams to our Guru mami. No words to express our gratitude 

🙏Hare Krishna,🙏
