SrI :
 
SrI GopAla Desika MahA DesikAya Nama:
 
SlOkam 943
 
kanakapeeDa nivishta tanustadhA
Sumathy dhAyinijAnubhavasmruthA
vidhisiva pramukair abhivandhithA
vijayathE Raghupungava PaadhukA
 
Meaning according to Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy :
 
Hail its victory ! Victory to the PaadhukA , which , when it 
reigned over the kingdom , was majestically seated on a gold
throne ; its contemplation in one's heart , even a momentary 
recalling of the PaadhukA , will confer an  effective blossoming
of one's faculty of the mind , its worshippers include Brahma 
and SivA .Victory to that PaadhukA !
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
This slOkam is jointly studied with the next ( 944th ) slOkam .
These two slOkams form together a pair to exemplify a type of poetry
known as " Bhinna vrutthAnulOma gOmUthrikA bhandha padhya
dhvayam ". The two slOkams (943 & 944) have seperate vrutthams/
metres (Bhinna-vruttha Bhandha padhya dhvayam) : SlOkam 943
is in dhruthaviLambhitha  Vruttham and slOkam 944 is in SragviNee
Vruttham .
 
1) UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: SrI Raama Paadhukais sat on
the golden throne of Raghus . At that time , the noble-minded PaadhukAs
conferred  the boon of true Jn~Anam . Remembering their  attributes and
experience, they are saluted by Brahma , RudrA and others with special
affection .
 
2. Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: In the previous slOkam , Swamy  Desikan
prayed for the boon of "TadEka sEsha Vrutthi " (performing Kaimkaryams to
the Paadhukais alone) . When the Paadhukais responded favorably to
his prayer , Swamy Desikan becomes joyous and pours out his eulogy of
the most merciful PadhukAsand hails them . The mood here is JayAseer-
vAdhams or hailing victory to the PaadhukAs.  May there be victory to
the Paadhukais which sits on  a golden seat inside Sriranga VimAnam
just as it did in the time of AyOdhyA Raaman through sitting  on a similar
golden seat ( the throne of Raghu Vamsam kings ) ! May there be victory
to the Paadhukais , which at Srirangam ( archai) as well as in AyOddhi
(VIbhavam) blessed one and all to acquire true Jn~Anam ! May  there be
victory to the Paadhukais , which were worshipped by Brahma and Rudra
both inside the Ranga VimAnam as well as at the time they reigned as
the representative of the Lord at AyOddhi .  Victory to the Paadhukais
which defeats the dhushta RaakshasAs as well as my dhushta manas !
May the Paadhukais of such multiple , auspicious attributes shine forever
with Vijaya SrI !
 
3. Those Paadhukais sat on the golden throne of the kings of Raghu
Vamsam at AyOddhyA with its majestic body ( TadhA kanaka peeDa
nivishta tanu: ) . They have the power to bless us with sumathy ( MInd
known for its clarity and possession of true Jn~Anam ) . They are
powerful to bless the devotee with the nectar of anubhavam about
them through dhyAnam (nija anubhava smruthA ) . They are worshipped by
Brahma and Sivan et al ( Vidhi Siva pramukhai: abhivandithA ) . May those
Raama Paadhukais be victorious always ( Raghu Pungava PaadhukA
vijayathE ) !
 
SlOkam 944
 
SrI GopAla Desika MahA DesikAya Nama:
 
dheena gOpijaniklishta bheenuth sadhA
Raama PaadhAvani ! SvAnubhAvasTithA
yEdhi mEvasyam uthArabhAvasrithA
tEjasA tEna gushtim gathA paalikA
 
Meaning according to Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy :
 
Oh Raama PaadhukA ! Innocent Gopi damsels were
relieved of grief and fear  about re-birth , KamsA's atrocities
and seperation from their Lord . Oh PaadhukE ! You possess
an inherent grandeur that is unsullied because You are not in any
want . Your effulgence arises from Your ability to elevate the lowliest
to the level of being salvaged . May You please be  my Protectress !
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
1) UthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : Oh Raama PaadhukE ! You removed
the sorrows , fear and repeated births in the world for the meek gOpis.
You are conscious always of Your glory and intent on rescuing those 
in difficult situations through the exercise of Your power. You are 
celebrated for such valorous deeds . May Thou without fail be My 
Protector !
 
2) SrImath Andavan anubhavam : Here the salutation is to the tEjas of
the Paadhukais. During the KrishNAvathAram , You removed the fears of
Gopikais in this and the other world. Your mahimai can not be assailed by
any one including Brahma , Rudran and ohers . Your lustre helps samsAris
to ovecome their deficencies . May YOur tEjas maintain sEsha vrutthi for me
and prevent our misfortunes ! 
 
3)  Oh Raama PAdhaavani ! You removed the distress of the meek Gopis
and provided them with the path for Moksham( dheena gOpee  jani klishta).
You removed the fear from dEvAs like IndhrA ( Bhee nuth ). They are steeped
in the anubhavam  of Bhagavath Bhakthi (  svAnubhAva sTithA ). It has acquired
the power to lift up the muktha jeevan via the path of light ( UtthAra Bhava srithA ).
They have become elated over their tEjas (tEjasA gushtim gathA ) . May those
Paadhukais remain as my protector always ( mE paalikA yEdhi ) ..(V.S).
