Narayaneeyam: The Story Of Lord Narayana
In the Hindu religion, there are many spiritual and religious books of huge merit and significance. One such book is the Narayaneeyam written by Melpatoor Narayana Bhattatiri. Born in a small village of the state of Kerala, Bhattatiri was a great devotee of Lord Krishna of Guruvayoor Temple. In his devotion, he created the most heart-touching and soothing version of the Srimad Bhagvata Purana by Ved Vyasa.
The Narayaneeyam is a shortened version of the original Srimad Bhagavata Purana. The original text of Srimad Bhagavata Purana has a total of 18,000 shlokas. Melpattur Bhattatiri condensed the original text into the Holy Narayaneeyam, which has a total of 1036 shlokas that are collected in the 100 odd chapters.
The important thing to note is that though the Narayaneeyam is incredibly short when compared to its original text, none of the essence or principles are lost in translation. The holy book of Narayaneeyam is written in Sanskrit; and it is written in beautiful and carefully chosen words. Reading it will make you feel the presence of Lord Krishna.
Today, we list out some of the facts that you should know about the Holy book of Narayaneeyam. These facts may inspire you to read the book yourself. Naraayaneeyam is available in its original form in Sanskrit. If you are unable to understand Sanskrit, you may also read the translations.
Narayaneeyam Is Dedicated To Lord Guruvayoorappan.
The temple dedicated to Lord Krishna is situated in the city of Guruvayoor. Hence, Lord Krishna is called Guruvayoorappan, which can be translated as 'the master or father of Guruvayoor'.
Narayaneeyam Is Famous For Its Capability To Cure Diseases
The Holy book of Narayaneeyam is said to be one of the favourites of Lord Krishna. The devotee who religiously reads this book is blessed with a lot of things; but the most important blessing received is that of good health. There have been reports of even deadly diseases being cured by the power of Narayaneeyam and the grace of Lord Guruvayoorappan.
Melpattur Narayana Bhattatiri Was A Cripple And Was Cured After Writing The Narayaneeyam
Melpattur Bhattatiri had a teacher by the name of Achyuta Pisharody. He fell sick due to the attack of a painful form of paralysis. Melpattur Bhattariti prayed to the Lord Guruvayoorappan that the disease be cured and if it cannot be so, let it be transferred to him. Accordingly, Melpattur fell sick with the disease and the teacher was cured. He then wrote the Narayaneeyam and dedicated it to the Lord. This way, he too was cured of the terrible disease.
It Was On The Advice Of The Poet Ezhutachan That Melpattur Began Writing The Narayaneeyam
Ezhutachan is the most revered poet of the Malayalam language. When he heard of Melpattur's disease, he sent word that he must start with fish to be cured. This caused a lot of outrage in the society, as Melpattur was a devout vegetarian. But Melpattur understood that Ezhutachan had actually asked him to start writing a book that glorified Lord Guruvayoorappan with the Matsya avatar.
