Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 877. kOmalAnguLinivEshayAnthrikAnyasthamoUkthikamayUKhadhanthurA mangaLAni vamasIva dhEhinAm rangarAjamaNipAdhukE! svayam Oh Manipaaduka! Your knob is very attractive and tender to suit the toes holding it in between. The pearls studded on it give out a continuous stream of pure white rays, which look like the spontaneous torrential output of gifts poured out by You. Since white colour implies sattva quality, the suggestion is that the Paaduka showers, unasked, all gifts to sattvikas. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Note by V.Sadagopan(V.S): SlOkam 877 1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh RanganAtha PaadhukE ! Your foothold ( Yantrikaa) is adorned with soft pearls to comfort the entry of the soft toes of RanganAthA's sacred feet. The effulgence of those pearls spreads over long distances, when Your Lord moves and reaches out to confer many blessings on Your devotees( Since the pearls are of white color, Swamy Desikan suggests that the rays from the pearls enhance the satthva guNam of the devotees). 2). SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: When people enjoy the special lustre spreading from the pearls in Your toeholds held firmly by Your Lord's most beautiful feet, it appears to them that You are generating waves of Satthva guNam to fall on them, who have come to offer their salutations to You. (Swamy Desikan suggests that the kshEmam of the devotees arises from Sathtva guNam, which is normally described as having the white hue similar to that of the pearls. Hence, Swamy indicates that the enveloping kaanthi from the pearls appears like the large auspicious cloud of Satthva guNam generating KshEmam to all). 3) Oh RangarAja MaNi PaadhukE ! Your toeholds(YanthrkA : ) are for Lord's beautiful toes to grip You during sanchAram ( KomaLa anguLi nivEsa Yanthrika). On these toeholds, soft pearls have been enmeshed ( YanthrikA nyastha moukthikA: ). Those pearls are emitting a beautiful and huge waves of white lustre (Moukthika mayUkha dhanthurA vamasi). That appears like You are engaged in drenchiing the janthus with KshEmam of every kind (Svayam dhEhinAm MangaLAni vamaseeva)... (V.S) . ------------------------ Yahoo!
