Respected members, The Slokhas 21 thro' 24 of yaamunaacharyas stotraratna is as follows:- slokha 21 :- Namo namo vaan-manas'aati bhumaye namo namo vaan-manas'aika-bhumaye; namo namo'ananta-mahaavibhutaye namo namo'ananta day'aika sindhave. Obeisance again and again to you who are beyond the reach of speech and mind; obeisance again and again to you who are the sole object of speech and mind; obeisance again and again to you of infinite great powers; obeisance again and again to you, the one ocean of infinite mercy. slokha 22 :- Na dharma-nishtho'asmi na c'aatma vedi na bhaktimaan tvaccaran'aaravinde; akincano'ananya-gatih saranya! tvat-paada-mulam saranam prapadye. O you worthy of being sought as refuge! I am not one established in Dharma, nor am i a knower of the self. I have no fervent devotion to your lotus-feet. Utterly destitute as I am, and having none else for resort, I take refuge under your feet. slokha 23 :- Na ninditam karma tad asti loke sahasraso yan na mayaa vyadhaayi; so'aham vipaak'aavasare mukunda! krandaami sampraty agatih tavaagre. There is not a single despicable deed in the world which has not been committed by me thousands of times. O Mukunda! now, when those deeds are fructifying, I, the very same person, am crying out helplessly before you. slokha 24 :- Nimajjato'ananta! bhav' aarnavaantah ciraaya me kulam iv'aasi labdhah; tvay'aapi labdham bhagavan idaanim anuttamam paatram idam dayaayaah. O Ananta! I am getting drowned in the great ocean of transmigratory existence. At last in you I have found the shore of that endless ocean, and you, O Lord! have obtained now this worthiest recipient for your mercy. Sri Krishnaarpanamasthu Narayana dasan B.N.Suresh
