Narayaniyam Saptavimsadasakam Meaninh:
Once sage Durvasa gifted a rare divine garland,
That he got from a deva maiden to king Indra,
And later when he came to know that it was,
Destroyed by Indra’s elephant Iravatha,
He became very angry with Indra and cursed him,
Which shows that those who were born out of other devas,
Do not have a quality of tolerance like you? ॥ 27.1 ॥
Then due to that curse, Indra was afflicted by old age,
And he was defeated by asuras as he had lost his vigour,
And consequently, Shiva and all other devas went to Lord Brahma,
And along with him all of them came to you,
Oh God, who is the basis of all pleasure. ॥ 27.2 ॥
Oh God who gives boons, hearing your praises,
Sung by all Devas for a long time, you came before them,
With radiating supreme light, and ordered them,
To reach an understanding with asuras and churn for nectar. ॥ 27.3 ॥
After Devas reached an understanding with asuras,
When they were taking Mandhara mountain with pride,
Which was designated to be used as the churning stick,
It fell down and you took it easily as if it is a Badara fruit,
Transported it Keeping on Garuda and put it in the ocean of milk. ॥ 27.4 ॥
Then later Devas and Asuras speedily made Vasuki,
In to rope for churning and when they started to churn the ocean
which was full of seeds of all medicines,
Using deceit you made Asuras sit on,
The side facing the open mouth of the serpent. ॥ 27.5 ॥
When the ocean was being churned vigorously thus,
And when the water of the ocean of milk became tumultuous,
Mandhara mountain which was the churning stick,
Due to its very heavyweight, sank into the sea bed,
Making all devas extremely sad, and you,
To make them happy took the form of a tortoise,
Which had a very hard and tough shelled back. ॥ 27.6 ॥
Oh Lord Vishnu, you along with back which was harder than diamond,
Which had a width spanning more than one lakh yojanas,
And which was reaching up to the foremost depths of the ocean,
Lifted up the Mandhara mountain which had sunk. ॥ 27.7 ॥
And when the king of mountains came suddenly up from the water,
All the people there were boisterously happy and started churning,
And you entered in Vasuki as well as people on both sides,
Removed their tiredness and increased their strength and vim. ॥ 27.8 ॥
Due to the accelerating speed, when the king of the mountain,
Started to raise more and more, you kept your hand on it,
And stopped it from coming very much out of the ocean,
And Brahma, Shiva and others who reached the sky,
Became extremely joyous, showered flowers and praised you. ॥ 27.9 ॥
When Asuras started suffering due to the hot poisonous smoke,
Emanating from the serpents mouth and devas also suffered slightly,
Due to your grace, the clouds showered heavy rain on devas,
And cooled them but this rain did not fall on the asuras. ॥ 27.10 ॥
With lots of whales and crocodiles moving here and there,
The ocean in spite of lot of churning did not give out anything,
And seeing this you started churning the ocean using Vasuki all alone,
Oh Lord of Guruvayur, please save me from diseases. ॥ 27.11 ॥
