SrimatE Gopala Desika MahA DesikAya Nama:
 
932 . JayaamapApAmayAjayAmahE dudhuhE mayA
          MahEsakAkAsa-hEma-paadhukAamamakaAdhupA
 
Translation by U.Ve. Dr.V.N.Vedanatha Desikan Swamin:
 
The PaadhukA helps the Moksham  seekers in case they lack
the perfection in their state of renunciation and conquest of senses.
Luckless candidates are granted the reward of success by the PaadhukA .
It removes diseases of  body as well as the mind . It grants protection
to those who cherish the correct feeling to them as possessions of
the Lord Himself . It helped Rudra , when he plucked a head of (his father)
Brahma ( and incurred mahA paapam ) . It shines on the head of great ones
like Indra. With great mercy , it removes their sorrows . Those golden Paadhukais 
are associated with the Lord's feet and I derive benefit from that . I "milk" the cow of
PaadhukA for desired results, during  the Lord's festivities ( like BrahmOthsavam et al ).
  
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S)
 
SlOkam 932: The sabdha chithram represented by this SlOkam
is known as SarvathO Bhadhram . Here in each Paadham consisting of
16 aksharams , the letters after the first half --letters 9 and 10 are reversed
at the end of the Paadham .   
 
1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : The Raama PaadhukAs are victorious
and save those , who do not have ripe knowledge. Those PaadhukAs devoid of
any afflictions are staying with the Lord's feet  and protects the spiritual riches of
those without ego . Those golden paadhukAs shine on the head of Rudra and their
blessings are obtained by me during the time of the festivals of the Lord .
 
2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that SadaachAryAs
protect the Mumukshus (those who desire Moksham) . They destroy our
Taapa thrayams. They help the wealthy through their upadesams  to
protect the wealth( Iswaryam) blessed to them by BhagavAn and to use
it for benovolent purposes and make sure that this Iswaryam does not
become a cause for sorrow. Regarding the wealth of Jn~Anam as opposed to
material wealth  , the SadAchAryAs bless the chEthanams from misusing
the Jn~Anam . During the times of distress for those who sought their
protection , SadAchAryAs unfailingly rescue them , whether they are sinners
or virtuous ones. They travel to dhivya dEsams during the times of
uthsavams for their Lord. It is important to prostrate before these
SadAchAryAs during those uthsavam times to gain their fullest
blessings .  
 
3. The RanganAtha  PaadhukAs protect Mumukshus , who have not fully
gained control over their Indhriyams( Jaya aama paa) . They remove physical
and mental diseases ( apa aamayA) . They protect the one without ahankaara--
mamakArams or protect  Rudran , who had comitted  Brahmahatthi
DhOsham by plucking one of the heads of his Father , Brahma ( amamaka
ath u paa or amamam Ka ath U paa ). Those golden Paadhukais
eat up (destroy) the sorrows of  great ones like Indra ( MahEsakaakAsa
hEma PaadhukA : Maha Isaka aka asa hEma PaadhukA ). Thiose Paadhukais
have attained the Thiruvadi of the Lord ( ajayAmahE: aja yaa mahE ) . I milk
them during the Lord's uthsavams for fulfilling my desires ( mahE  mayA
dudhuhE ) .
 
SlOkam 933 :
 
PApAth apApAth apApA apAdhapAdhadapAdapA
dapAdapaapAdhapAdhapAdhapA  dhadhapAdhapA
 
Translation by U.Ve.Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamin
 
The PaadhukA makes us sinless ; it bestows luster to
the Lord's feet ( It confers an effulgence to individual
souls , which are aspects of the Lord ). Its ablution water is
capable of protection in respect of those who perform the service of
respectfully inserting the PaadhukA into the Lord's feet . Interstingly ,
it confers protection to the Lord's feet ,  which are the source of protection
to all the worlds and of annihilation of all of one's sins. Those PaadhukAs
saved me from sins !     
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
SlOkam 933: This slOkam is used on SUNDAYS  by the ladies of the house.
This slOkam is known as "Dhvayaj~nAla SarvathO Bhadhram ". This sabdha
chithram can be represented either as a 8x8 square or as an ashta dhaLa
padhmam housing a circle and a chathur  dhaLa padhmam . This entire
slOkam is made up only of  two aksahrams : dha  and Paa .
 
1. UttamUr Swamy's anubhavam: The PaadhukAs are sinless and protect
in themselves the lustre of the jeevans , who are derived from VishNu. They
protect the Lord's feet , which destroy the sins of Jeevans. These PaadhukAs
protect further those , who offer them water for their sacred bath. They have
protected me from the sins .
 
2.SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning of this slOkam is :
(a) The AchAryAs as avathAra PurushAs establish the Parathvam of
the Lord  out of their abiding love for their Lord and intense compassion for
the Jeevans through successful debates with kumathis (b) by nature , these
AchAryAs are devoid of sins and are intent on banishing the sins of those , who
seek their protection . They purify those who provide help for their Bhagavath-
AarAdhanam through the theertham from their AarAdhanam and their own
SrI Paadha Theertham . Thus they save those who seek protection by
banishing their nescience and sins .
 
3. This  933rd slOkam consisting of two Uyir yezhutthukkaL ( A and Aa ) and
two Mey Yezhutthakkal ( Pa , Dha ) has to split in the following manner to
reveal the meaning:
 
pApAth apApAth apApA apAdhapAdhadapAdapA
dapAdapApAdhapAdhapAdhapA dadhapAdhapA
 
These PaadhukAs are free of sins ( apApA);  They store in them the rays
 at the sacred feet of the Lord that save chEthanams ( a paadha padha
dha pAdha paa) . They have the Thirumanjana theerttham from those
who place them at the Lord's feet for their protection .They bless the seekers
with rakshaNam ( dha paadha ); they chase away the sins of those, who seek
their rakshaNam ( pApa adha ). These are the Paadhukais that protect
the sacred feet of the Lord ( Paadha paadhapA ). These Divine paadhukais
have protected me from sins ( pApAth apApAth)...(V.S).
