Jai Sriman Narayana !!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, you have incarnated as Dhaththathreya, son of Sage Athri and his chaste wife Anasuya, you have mentally exhausted by your disciples and moved on with your consort, immersed in a state of bliss.  In the mean time you have met with Karthyaveerarjuna, the King of Heyheya and an ardent devotee of you.  You were pleased with his devotion and offered him boon of Ashtaishwarya/eight forms of wealth, and prophesied that his death will happen by your hands.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, In order to implement the predictions to Karthyaveeryarjuna, you have born to Sage Jamadagni and Renuka, as Rama in the lineage of Bhrigu.  As a youngest child to the couple, you have provided them immense joy.  Oh! Hare, you have incarnated as Rama to annihilate the mischievous and wicked rulers who were burden on mother Earth, and keep an eye on the valor of King Karthyaveeryarjuna as well.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have attained profound knowledge in Veda by the age of fourteen.  Your father Sage Jamadhagni was enraged at your mother, who was enticed by Gandharva King Chaithraratha, eventually you have sincerely carried out the command of your father, severed your mother’s head and brothers who were not willing obey the orders of your father.  Shortly, you have requested boon from your father who was at peace.  You have restored their lives with the boons and received boon from your mother who was extremely pleased at you.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have brought the divine cow Kamadhenu with your prayers in the hermitage of Sage Jamadhagni and Renuka.  Shortly, you have proceeded to Himalayas at the advice of Bhrigu to undergo austerities and penance worshipping Lord Shiva.  Lord Shiva was pleased at your austerities and offered several weapons including the divine weapon Parasu, eventually annihilated the demons at his command.  Later you have made a close association with Sage Akruthavrana, and returned to your hermitage.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, once King Karthaveeryarjuna was on his hunting expedition, arrived at the hermitage of your father was received with all honors, served him with all the sumptuousness provided by the divine cow Kamadhenu.  While leaving the hermitage King Karthyaveerarjuna ordered his ministers to get  possession of Kamadhenu, eventually the cow was captured by the King’s men, when Sage Jamadhagni was intervened was killed instantly, several warriors were emerged from the furious Kamadhenu and conquered the entire army of King, but the calf was taken away by the Kings men at the end.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Sage Jamadagni was brought back into life by Sage Shukracharya.  Your father narrated the entire happenings to you, it stirred fury in you.  You have left with your close associates and underwent austerities worshipped on Lord Mahodhara, eventually attained bow, arrow and axe.  Shortly you have arrived in the province of Mahishmathi in a chariot driven by a charioteer.  You have requested King Karthaveeryarjuna to release the calf, but he was not willing to do that, ultimately a fierce battle was begun.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, King Karthaveeryarjuna entered the battle feild with his 10,000 sons , 17 Akshouhini army, several friends and commanders.  Oh! Supreme Lord, you have killed his sons and entire armies with your Parasu and a few fled out of fear from the battle field, you have attacked Karthaveeryarjuna, King of Heheya.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Once King Karthaveeryarjuna with his thousands of arms cleverly seized the flow of river Narmada, it caused Ravana drowning in the brimming water while performing ablution; it hurt the pride of Ravana. Although Karthaveeryarjuna had powerful arms wielded with fierce weapons, he realized the power of your holy wheel; he envisioned you as Supreme Lord Hari and in a state of ecstasy meditated upon you.  Instantly all his sins were washed off and killed by you, eventually he attained the Abode of Vaikundha.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Sons of King Karthaveeryarjuna retaliated against your father and killed him, Renuka was inconsolable grieved over the death of her husband, wept bitterly hitting on her chest.  You took a vow seeing her in a pathetic state.  You have boarded on a chariot with the divine weapons and killed all those Kshathriyas who were the enemies of Brahmin, with the divine axe you have wiped out the kshthriyas from all corners and the Earth remained with no Kshathriyas.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, your father Sage Jamadhagni was brought back to life.  You have annihilated the clan of Kshathriyas for twenty one times, performed homage to ancestors with the blood in the vast lake Samantha Panchaka and gave away abundance of land as charity to Rishi Kashyapa and others.  Oh! Hare, Sage Sanathkumara intervened while you were battling with King Salva, and informed you that he was destined to be killed by Lord Krishna.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have discarded all the weapons and underwent severe austerities in Mount Mahendra.  You have noticed that the land up to Gokarna was submerged into water, all the sages requested to protect the land; you have frightened the ocean with the fierce Analasthra.   With the ladle you have recovered the land, scooped out the land that was submerged in the ocean known as Kerala.  Oh! Bhrugupathey, I earnestly pray to protect us.

Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, demon Bali was highly pleased after witnessing your splendid form and reverentially greeted and venerated you in all possible ways.  He spoke “Oh! Viprasuno, what would you like to have from me? Oh! Brahmin, Shall I offer you with wealth, food, house, land or all those mentioned above?
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have decided to curtail the pride of Bali after listening to his speech swollen with pride.  Oh! Compassionate Lord, you have highly praised the bounteousness of the demons and asked for the place on Earth, which was measured by your tiny feet for three times, asks for all that belonged to him would be a sheer wit.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Bali spoke in absolute proud “Oh! Vishwesha, Lord of three worlds, how could you ask for three steps of land on Earth?  What would you do with that, instead ask for the entire Universe.”  Bali was failed to provide even three steps of land due to his excessive pride and brought disgrace and bondage, Bali did not deserve any of these, but he had to acquire absolute impassiveness at the end.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Oh! Varada, provider of boons, you have made him realize that who is not satisfied with the three feet of land will not be contended even with the possession of three worlds.  Bali initiated the ritual of charity to you by pouring the water.  Oh! Lord Hari, you desired to test the integrity of Bali, therefore you have prompted Sage Shukracharya to refrain Bali from the ritual of charity.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Bali considered himself as truly blessed to offer charity to Lord, further he did not yield to the words of Sage Shukracharya and decided to proceed further, eventually Sage Shukracharya was cursed Bali.  Oh! How wonderful it was, the ritual of charity has begun, Vindhyavali, wife of Bali poured water to wash your feet.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, The demon King Bali performed the ritual of charity without any uncertainty and offered everything to you.  The deities showered flowers on you.   You have assumed the divine form Vamana, as the three worlds were witnessing the gigantic form of Vamana was broadened across the cosmic.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Your tip of the foot has touched the Sathyaloka, the Abode of Lord Brahma.  Instantly, Pundarikothbhava/ Lord Brahma washed your feet with the water from his vessel, it was turned into Akasha Ganga which purified the entire Universe.  The Gandharvas and Vindhyadharas danced in a state of ecstacy.   Jambavan, the ardent devotee of you went on playing divine drum.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, The demons battled against the deities, without the permission of their King Bali.  Oh! Supreme Lord, the demons were defeated by your convoys on behalf of the deities.  Bali advised his clan of demons that it was the grace of Supreme Lord they had won the previous battle and affirmed that it was meaningless to battle against you, eventually he preceded to Pathal Loka.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Garuda, your celestial vehicle and King of the birds tied Bali.  You have enquired Bali “ Are you not the Lord of three worlds? Then show me place for my third step.”  Instantly, Bali reverentially greeted you and asked you to place your feet on his head, in this way you have measured the third step.  Prahlada appeared at the side of Bali and eulogized your glories.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have addressed Bali “ Oh! Dhaithya Siddha, all that had happened to curtail your pride, you are blessed by your virtuous deeds.  You will be ruling the Suthala region that will be superior to heaven.  In the next Manvanthara you will be crowned as Lord Indra and ultimately attain union with me.”  A grand Yagna was performed by the priests and blessed Bali.  Oh!  Pahivathalayesha, I earnestly pray to protect us.

Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, virtuous Bali was killed in a battle by Lord Indra, but he was revived by Sage Shukracharya.  Bali performed a grand Yagna and became extremely valorous; he was not even scared of your divine wheel.  Eventually Bali conquered the three worlds and the deities have to flee out of fear from their abodes.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Aditi, mothers of deities was distressed after witnessing the pathetic state of deities.  She approached her husband Sage Kashyapa seeking for help.  Sage Kashyapa advised her to undergo austerities and observe Payovratha.  Thus,  Aditi performed severe austerities and sincerely worshipped you for twelve days.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, you were pleased at the devotion of Aditi and appeared before her in your splendid form, with four arms and in blue complexion.  Aditi reverentially greeted you and prostrated before you.  You have informed her that you would be born as her son and insisted her to keep this information as undisclosed; eventually you have disappeared from her sight.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, you have emerged in the austerities of Sage Kashyapa and entered into the womb of Aditi.  In due course of time, Aditi gave birth to a stunning divine child who has the resemblance of Lord Vishnu on the day of Dwadashi with the birth star Shravan.  Lord Brahma eulogized the glories of you.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, All the deities were overjoyed and they eulogized your glories.  The deities were played divine instruments and showered flowers on the hermitage of Sage Kashyapa.  The pious couple Sage Kashyapa and Aditi stood before you with folded hands, instantly you have assumed the form of a marvelous Brahmacharin.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Sage Kashyapa and the deities performed fire ritual, adorned you with sacred thread, attired in deer skin, Dhanda and beads.  Eventually, you have proceeded to the house of Bali where a Grand Ashwamedha Yagna was being conducted.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have marched towards the house of Bali, the Earth was quivering due to your over weightiness, you have held an umbrella upon you as if to ward off the heat and fierceness of your opponents and a Dhanda to punish the demons.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, you have arrived on the river banks of Narmada where the grand Ashwamedha Yagna was organized. Shukracharya and others were amazed at your brilliance and wondered, was that Lord Sun?  Or Lord Agni? Or Yogi Sananthkumara?
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, You have received by Sage Shukracharya and reverentially greeted by others.  The demon Bali was delighted at your divine appearance; virtuous Bali washed your feet and reverently sprinkled that holy water on his head.
 
Oh! Supreme Lord Guruvayurappa, Bali was fortunate indeed to be born in the lineage of Prahlada and performed various austerities, fire sacrifices; he had immense faith on the holy men and service to them, ultimately he had the fortune to have holy water from your lotus feet.  Oh! Vibho, the holy water which meant to embellish Lord Shiva’s matted hair lock.  Oh! Gurupuralaya, I earnestly pray to protect us.
