Oh! Mind, contemplate upon that marvelous
Srirangaroopa of that supreme Lord Ranganatha, who is supreme bliss, represents
the highest of the knowledge, is the absolute Bhramam, symbolizes Shruthi. He
is supreme Lord Vishnu who has assumed the most attractive form of Sri Ranga,
who has a dark cloud complexion. Oh! Mind, contemplate upon those various amusements of Sriranga/Srirangaleela, of that supreme Lord Ranganatha who
resides on the river banks of Kaveri, he is extremely compassionate, resides
under the shade of Mandhara, he has incarnated to annihilate the demons, and
for the performance of various passionate sports for the welfare of Universe
and its people. Oh! Mind, contemplate upon that mesmerizing life on the sacred
land of Sringa/Srirangavasa, which is the dwelling place of Lord Ranganatha
along with Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, resides in the lotus-like hearts of
noble-souls, and she resides in the abode of Lord Surya as well. Lord Ranganatha represents the abode of compassion
resides in the midst of the virtuous souls. Oh! Mind, contemplate upon that
marvelous Lord Sriranga, who is worshiped by Lord Bhrama and deities, he is
worshiped in the whole Universe; he is worshiped by Mukunda and Suranatha/Lord
Indra, Vyasa, and illustrious Rishis and Sages, and Sanakadhis. Oh! Mind,
contemplate upon the abode of Sri Rangam, which is the supreme abode of Lord
Vishnu, he is the Lord of Bhrama, Garuda, Sri Vaikunda, Suraraja/Lord Indra, he
is the Lord of Thrilokhya/three worlds, he is the Lord of the
Universe/Akhilaloka, he is the Lord of Sri Ranga as well. Oh! Mind, contemplate
upon that supreme Lord of Sri Ranga, who symbolizes auspiciousness, he
undertakes the finest Yogamudra and reclines on the serpent Anantha in the milky
ocean. He symbolizes auspiciousness undertakes Yognidra on the milky ocean. Oh!
Mind, contemplate upon that supreme Lord Rangashayi, adorned in various
ornaments and reclines in an excellent posture/Sachithrashayi on the serpent
Anantha/Bhujagendhrashayi, he is supreme Lord Vishnu who has incarnated as the little child of Nandabada/Nadhangashayi, he is the Lord of Kamala/Goddess Sri
Mahalakshmi/Kamalangashayi, he is the supreme Lord Vishnu who reclines on the
Ksheerabdhi/milky ocean, he has incarnated as adorable infant/Vatapathrashayi
who reclines on the Vatapathra/peepal leaf as well. This is one of the most
auspicious land on the Earth, if the Jeeva happen to shed its mortal coil does
not take rebirth, therefore Jeeva take shelter at the lotus feet of Lord which
brought the sacred river Ganga on the Earth, reclines on the serpent Anantha.
Whoever reads or listen to the Sri Ranganathashtakam praising the splendor of
Lord Ranganatha would get fulfilled all their desires; ultimately achieve the
abode of Lord Ranganatha.
