Meaning & Details
The Paaduka is contemplated upon by sages (who devote to meditation
in absolute renunciation, living on mere water-drinking) as a halo-
marked object. It shines with garlands dedicated to it. It gets to
the walking operation on the Lord taking it for His free will to
proceed to desired places. The Paaduka of Lord Ranganatha grants to
us all we ask for.
Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S)
SlOkam 927 : This verse is set Chathurara-chakra Bhandham
or four-leaved chakra bhandham . It is also represented as
Ashta dhaLa Padhma Bhandham (eight petalled lotus) .
This eight petalled lotus pattern is used by the ladies of
the house for worship on WEDNESDAYS . The letters of the slOkam
are removed during the household use and the letter " Kaa "
found at the center of the yanthram is replaced by SrI Raama
PaadhukAs.
1) UthamUr Swamy' s anubhavam: The PaadhukAs of Lord RanganAtha
are meditated upon by the sages , whose food is water only .
The PaadhukAs have a brilliant lustre and wear beautiful garlands
at the appropriate times .. They travel in novel and pleasing ways
to satisfy their Lord , who wishes to fulfil the prayers of His
devotees .
2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The Paadhukais remove the darkness
in the hearts of the Sages through their meditation on the Paadhukais
as
the most radiant entiity . The Paadhukais have the distinction of
being
adorned with the flower garlands used by their Lord .. They have the
intense
desire to carry the Lord during His activities of protecting the
world .
They fulfill the benovolent desires of the devotees and remove the
inauspicious
thoughts from their minds . They have the gait and glory of their
Lord .
The inner meaning is that The AchAryAs (Paadhukais of the Lord)
have the Lord under their control through intense Bhakthi yOgam and
make it easy for us to have His anugraham through the KshaNikOpAyam
of Prapatthi ( that which takes a second to practise ) and remove
our
Ajn~Ana Samsayam viparyams ( dangers of doubts arising from our
nescience).
3) " Ka + ath " combine to give the word Kaadhu , a synonym for the
Sages ,
who perform intense tapas while consuming water only . The dhivya
Paadhukais are meditated upon by them as the most lustrous
ones ( Kaadhu upAsya sath aalOkA ). Sath aalOka refers to the
superior
jyOthi of the PaadhukAs . The PaadhukAs adorn the garlands worn
erstwhile by their Lord during the time of worship to them ( Kaala
udhAhrutha dhAmakaa). They bless their devotees with auspiciousness
and remove inauspicious thoughts ( Kaamadhaa). These PaadhukAs
are fond of engaging in different sanchaara gathis of the Lord
( adhva riramsakaa RangEsa PaadhukA akAsA) ....(V.S).
