Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 880. nandhasUnupadhapadhmamindhirApANipallavanipIdanAsaham pAdhukE! thava balEna paryaBhUdhUShmaLAmuragamoULisharkarAm Oh Paaduka! The feet of the Lord are so tender that they wold redden even if touched by the tender palm of Mahalakshmi. Even so Sri Krishna could dance on the hood of Kaliya serpent; that hood was hot and rough. How? Your ability to sustain all that was the help You rendered to the Lord. Thus You help the Lord in a crisis even as You help the ordinary souls. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S): SlOkam 880 1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: In the previous verse , Swamy Desikan referred to the help of PaadhukAs to the righteous people. Here, he talks about the help given by the PaadhukAs to the Lord at the time of His battle with the poisonous snake, KaaLiyan . Swamy says: " Oh PaadhukE !Your Lord's tender feet can not even tolerate the pressings of SrI Devi's lotus soft hands. Such tender feet danced on the rough gems present on the hoods of the powerful snake , KaaLiyan, and subdued him. Your Lord was not affected from the exertions of dancing on the hot and hard head of the snake thanks to Your active support. 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! The tender feet of Your Lord can not bear the pressure even with the pressing by SrI Devis' lotus soft hands. Lord's feet are so tender and soft that they are uncomfortable even from the soft touch of MahA Lakshmi's hands. Those lotus soft feet of the Lord with Your assistance dance on the hot and hard hoods of the serpent king, KaaLiyan and puts that powerful serpent to shame. 3) Oh PaadhukE ! Your Lord's tender feet can not tolerate even the soft pressings from MahA Lakshmi creeper-soft hands ( IndhirA paaNi pallava nipeeDana ahasam ). Those lotus-soft feet of the son of NandhagOpan (Nandhasoonu padha Padhmam) gained strength from Your association (Tava BalEna) and danced on the hot and rough surfaces of the hoods of KaaLiyan ( ushmALam sarkarAm uraga mouLi ) and put him to shame (Tava BalEna paryabhUth )...(V.S). ------------------------ Yahoo!
