THE SATRAS - II |
|
So he prayed to
Vishnu with devotion by holding a lotus with his trunk: -
Ehi buli maranato nabhila vikala
Sunde merai dharilanta Suvarna Kamala
Parama anande Madhavata diya citta
Gajendra karila stuti ati viparite
"Thus thought he, and cast away all fear of death; with his trunk he caught hold of a
golden lotus; with great joy and faith in Madhava, Gajendra began to worship Him
intensely."
Vishnu came and rescued his distressed devotee in time. Since the devotional acts are
bound to bring good results, Sankaradeva asserts that it is the supreme religion. As he
says: -"All religions take shelter under the
name of Krishna. All religious rites become completely accomplished by meditating
Nama."
