In this world i am engaged in performing actions for the sake of the lord. Many raga dvesha asuras seek to interfere in this work. But i never negotiate with raga dvesha asuras. Who am I to negotiate with them. I am not aware of how to handle them. I am the loyal servant of the lord simply doing his bidding. I hand over custody of asuras to the lord. I am neither required to fight them nor give them protection nor nourish them. Asuras are clever they can promise me this and that. But I am a servant loyal servant of the lord whom alone i adore. I dutifully handover the asuras to the lord. If they wish to negotiate with me I reply with humility that I am neither the right person to negotiate nor do i have any powers. My existence itself is because of the lord hence i ask the lord to handle them as he sees fit with absolute confidence and trust in the lord. Hence i am neither favorable nor unfavorable towards the asuras. As a dutiful loyal servant i trust lord to handle them as he sees fit. Swamiye sharanam ayyappa.
