Śrīnivāsa at Svāmipuṣkariṇī: Darśana, Stotra, the Secret Veṅkaṭeśa Mantra, and the Meaning of “Vyaṅkaṭeśa”
तथैव तास्तलशब्दं च कृत्वा तदा सर्वा नमनं चापि चक्रुः / आनन्दशैले सर्वदा त्वित्थमेव सा सर्वदा नर्तयन्ती च वीन्द्र
tathaiva tāstalaśabdaṃ ca kṛtvā tadā sarvā namanaṃ cāpi cakruḥ / ānandaśaile sarvadā tvitthameva sā sarvadā nartayantī ca vīndra
Cũng như thế, họ tạo nhịp vỗ tay, và tất cả đều cúi mình đảnh lễ. Trên Núi Hỷ Lạc, quả thật nàng luôn ở như vậy—mãi mãi múa, hỡi bậc tối thắng trong loài chim (Garuda).
Lord Vishnu (narrating to Garuda/Vinata-putra)
Concept: Perpetual ānanda through unwavering devotion—joy becomes the devotee’s abiding state.
Vedantic Theme: Ānanda as the natural fragrance of proximity to Bhagavān; movement (nṛtya) as metaphor for līlā and liberated joy.
Application: Make devotion regular and rhythmic (daily kīrtana/namaskāra); cultivate a stable inner ‘ānanda-śaila’ through consistency rather than occasional fervor.
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
Type: sacred mountain

It signifies coordinated devotional celebration—using sound and rhythm as an offering—followed by namana (obeisance), showing that worship includes both joyful expression and humility.
Vishnu addresses Garuda directly (“O best of birds”), describing a scene of reverence where attendants clap rhythmically and bow, while a divine figure remains ever engaged in sacred dance on Ānanda-śaila.
Combine devotion with humility: participate in kirtan/bhajan (rhythm, clapping) and also practice namaskara—keeping celebratory worship grounded in reverence and discipline.
