Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

936. yAyAyAyAyAyAyAyA yAyAyAyAyAyAyAyA
     yAyAyAyAyAyAyAyA yA yA yA yA yA yA yA yA

That Paaduka, which collected revenue, being in the throne, which 
ensures auspices for the devotees, which is the benefactor of True 
Wisdom on devotees, which kindles a yearning for the good things of 
life (which makes the devotee look to itself as the Supreme Deity), 
which wipes out enemies (also the sins of the devotees), which after 
attaining the Lord's Feet is for His travels, which helps bring the 
Lord to us, and which is the Supreme Aid for the jivas reaching the 
Highest Goal, that Paaduka has the distinction of solely being for 
the Lord.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan


Special notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
SlOkam 936: This sabdha chithram is known as 
Ekaswara Vyanjanam or that which is revealed by 
one intonation (Swaram). The split of the slOkam
into individual words to bring out  the meaning are:
 
" Yaayaayaayaa , aaya , aayAya , ayAya , ayAya ,
ayAya , ayAya , ayAya , yAyAya , aayAyAya ,
aayAyA; yaa, yaa, yaa, yaa, yaa , yaa, yaa, yaa ".
 
The fourth quadrant is made up of 8 aksharams( Yaa) ,
which are the same . The first three quarters (Paadhams)
split differently . "Yaa" stands here for the PaadhukAs . 
 
This slOkam is set in the MahA Yamakam with many chithra 
Bhandhams : (a) yEka Svara chithram/with one swaram
(b) yEka varNa chithram / with one aksharam alone 
(c) dhvisthnam and TAna chithram having sabdham 
made by two positions in the mouth  (d) slOkAnulOma-
prathilOma gathi chithram (e) gOmUthrikA , Sarvathobhadhram , 
KankaNa Bhandham , Muraja Bhandham , Padhma Bhandham 
and other Bhandha chithrams. This slOkam also houses 
the MahA Yamakam and VidhyunmAlA , which in turn contain :  
ardha Yamakam , paadha chathurAvrutthi yamakam ,
PaadhArdha ashtAvrutthi yammakam , Paadha-shOdasA-
vrutthi yamakam and yEkAkshara thrimsadhAvrutthi  
yamakam. 
 
1. UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: The PaadhukAs are 
the instruments to grant one the hard-to-attain siddhi of
Moksham; they have joined the Lord's sacrd feet to have 
that power . The PaadhukAs are the residue of Lord VishNu
and brings Him to the people with blemishes to remove those
defects and also approaches the liberated souls , who frequent 
the Lord's residence in Parama padham . This reality is made 
possible because the Paadhukais rarely leave the Lord's proximity .
 
2.SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:The activities of the PaadhukAs 
for both  the aasrithAs ( those who seek their protection) and
the Lord as well is covered in this slOkam . The Aasritha Vaathsalyam 
of the Paadukais is linked to their nithya yOgam ( uninterrupted 
union ) of the Paadhukais with the Lord's sacred feet . The 
Paadhukais are afraid to leave the side of the Lord for fear that 
AasrithAs may be overlooked ( reference: Dhvandhva paddhathi: slOkam 
7).
 
The Paadhukais become responsible for the great boon of Bhagavath
PrApthi and for the Lord's gain of those chEthanams , which would
otherwise have been lost in SamsAram . The Paadhukais remove 
inauspicious happenings ( anishta nivrutthi) and causes auspicious
happenings even with a slight effort by the chEthanams to seek their
refuge. They  generate tatthva Jn~Anam in SamsAris. They remind
the Lord often about the aasrithAs even though Lord is omniscient
(Sarvaj~nan). This is done by the Paadhukais because of their 
affection for the Aaasritha janam. The Paadhukais make sure that the 
Aasrithas never get associated with anya dEvathA worship for any 
reason (over arTa-Kaama vishayams). The Paadhukais are ready to 
defeat the external and internal enemies of the AasrithAs. They stand 
by to take the Lord on SanchAram to generate the bliss for the eyes 
of the AaasrithAs during the uthsavams. They stay in a state of 
endearment to the Lord for enhancing the advantages of the AaasrithAs 
and to help them gain Moksham . The PaadhukAs  serve the Lord in the 
most endearing manner to help the aasrithAs and stays in nithya yOgam 
with their Lord for this purpose.  
 
3. The many vyApArams of the Paadhukais(AchAryAs) are saluted
 here : " Yaa aayAya " ( that Paadhukai which toils for the gain of 
the aasrithAs as well as that of the Lord ); " Yaa aayAya " 
( That Paadhukai , which strives for the gains of the aasrithAs
in the areas of enhancing their tatthva Jn~Anam , destroying
the enemies of the aasrithAs , perfecting their ParadEvathA
(Sriman NaarAyaNa's) aarAdhanam for protecting their prapatthi ). 
For these reasons , the Paadhukais have gained the sambhandham of 
their Lord ( aayAya A yaayA ). They become the objects used in  
BhagavAn's sanchAram ( yAyAa ). They bring the Lord near 
during anthima dasai or during the time of dangers to aastrithAs
( aayAyAya ). The Paadhukais enhance and perfect Bhagavath
Kaamam in aasrithAs( aaya+ aayA ). Those Paadhukais becomes
sEsha bhUtham ( being  a loyal servant to their Lord for these
 reasons of helping both the aasrithAs and their Lord 
( Saa yAyA  yaa aaya ) ...(V.S).
