Meditation on Sriman NArAyaNan leads to SrI VaikuNTham!

dhyAyanti yE vishNum anantam avyayam
hRt-padma-madhyE satatam vyavasthitam |
samAhitAnAm satatAbhaya-pradam
tE yAnti siddhim paramAnca vaishNavIm || 38

SrI kulaSEkhara describes the status of the minority who meditate on SrIman-nArAyaNa. He says that yOgi-s who meditate on SrIman-nArAyaNa with deep devotion attain the eternal place of vishNu, viz., SrI vaikuNTham.

The AzhvAr points out that those recite the nArAyaNa-gAyatrI,

nArAyaNAya vidmahE vAsudEvAya dhImahi |
tannO vishNu: pracOdayAt ||

are mahA-yOgi-s.

Though the vishNu-gAyatI-mantra-japam which means, "May we know nArAyaNAya!, For that, may we meditate on vAsudEva! May vishNu impel us towards that knowledge ", mahA-yOgi-s have the good fortune of seeing Him in their heart lotuses. There they find Him seated with SrI-dEvI, in abhaya-mudra. Through such a fruitful meditation they reach the abode (parama-padam) of SrIman-nArAyaNa, according to SrI kulaSEkhara.

Salutations to KSheerAbdhi nAthan!

kshIra-sAgara-taranga-SIkarA'
'sAra-tArakita cAru-mUrtayE |
bhOgi-bhOga-SayanIya-SAyinE
mAdhavAya madhu-vidvishE nama: || 39

Here the AzhvAr visualizes the parama-pada-nAthan at His other abode - the Milky Ocean, as kshIrAbdi-nAthan. This association of vaikUNTha-nAthan resting on Adi-SEshan comes to AzhvAr's mind as he is standing before SrI ranga-nAtha at the bhU-lOka-vaikuNTha-kshEtram.

He offers his praNAmam to that mangala-mUrti reclining on His serpent bed in the following way: "madhuvidvishE mAdhavAya nama:" He offers his salutation to the slayer-of-the-madhu demon, Who is none other than mAdhavan - the Lord of SrI-dEvI.

AzhvAr visualizes mAdhavan at SrI-ranga-kshEtram as the One Who is resting on Adi-SEshan. While He is resting on Adi-SEshan in the Milky Ocean, sprinkles off milky waves fall on HIS body and glisten up little stars! The sight of His beautiful blue-hued body with drops of milk resembling brilliant white star-specks thrills the AzhvAr and he cries out in ecstasy over that beautiful vision.
