SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest Srivaishnavas,

Even if one sits for few minutes and meditate on the
Lord in his mind, he needs to keep on contemplating of
the divine most beautiful form in his mind always.
Then only will it fructify. This called as
?ALAMBANASAMSEELANAM?. That means: when one walks,
stands, sits or goes to bed, he should have the form
of the Lord in his heart. Unless that happens, Yoga
can not occur- Hence, AzhwAr prays for that in this
verse. 

kadunkavanthan vakkaran_ka
  ranmuraNnsi rammavai,
idanthukooRu seythapalpa
  daiththadakkai maayanE,
kidanthirunthu ninRiyanku
  pOthumn^inna poRkazhal,
thodarnthuviLvi laathathOr_tho
  darchchin^alka vENdumE.     (104)

The strong, cruel, Kabandhan; thandhavakran; karan;
muran;- their heads were all removed and were made to
roll by You, Oh most valorous ? most wonderful Lord!
Ascharya purushA! Please bless me the unparalleled
uninterrupted continuous thinking of Your most
beautiful divine pair of Lotus Feet ? even while lying
down(go to sleep); sitting; standing and walking. 

During RamavathAram, Kabandhan and Karan were cut and
killed by Lord Rama. Thandhavakran was SisupAlan?s
brother. Muran was with NarakAsura. So, these two
belong to krishNAvathAram. Their heads were made to
roll by KaNNan. Kabandhan was cursed by Sage Sthoola
Siras, with a horrible looking form and when fought
with Devendra, got his head cut off by Devendran with
his vajrAyudha. To live and survive, the head was kept
in his belly (it appears). He was given an eye in the
chest to look for his food (prey). He extends his long
(one mile) hands to search for his food, grabs the
elephants, lions and tigers that get trapped and
swallows. Rama, Lakshmanas were also caught with his
hand and they cut his hands. His head was not cut
however. That?s why the verse should read to
associtate the siram (head) with Karan, Muran, Thandha
vakkiran and NOT Kabandhan. 

They later pushed him into a pit and burnt him and
thus his head was also burnt and now one can read also
that the head word is being connected with Kavandhan
incident as well.
