SrI :
 
SrI GopAla Desika MahA DesikAya Nama:
 
SlOkam 945
 
dhaamanirAkrutha tAmasa lOkA  dhAthrumukhair-vinathA nijadAsai:
pApam asEsham apAkurushE mE Paadhu ! vibhUshitha-Raaghava PaadhA
 
Meaning according to Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy :
 
Oh PaadhukA !  You see to it that the sacred land You reigned over
suffered no grief whatsoever. It was Your great grace. Faultless ,
effulgent , You had Your court filled with kings , whose affluence
were of a faultless nature . You never get  satisfied with the bliss
that You derive by enjoying close contact with the Lord's feet , nor
with the bliss You secure for devotees by way of their enjoyment
of the Lord's feet . You have powers to increase the bliss further & further ;
and there is no impediment to this role of Yours.
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
1) UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: This and the next verse form a duet of
verses representing " Bhinna Vruttha PRATHILOMA  gOmuthrikA bandha
padhya dhvayam . SlOkams 943 & 944 represented "bhinna vrutthhi
ANULOMA  gOmuthrika bhandha Padhya dhvayam ".
 
Here , Swamy Desikan says: " Oh PaadhukE ! You are adorning RaamA's feet
and with Your prowess have destroyed the community of asurAs . You are
being worshipped by Brahma and other devoted servants of Yours. You remove
all of my sins. 
 
2. Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that SadAchAryAs
like the Lord's Paadhukais are capable of destroying the demonic nature
(aasura svabhAvam ) of people . They are powerful to chase away the enemies
of people of Saathvic nature and enhance their satthva guNam further , which
in turn prepares them to reach the limits of being the servants (Seshathva 
Kaashtai) to the Supreme Lord . They are pristinely pure like the Lord's
sacred feet and removes all the blemishes of those , who seek them as
refuge.They are thus highly qualified to destroy the aasura svabhAvams ,
counter Satthva Naasam ( destruction of Satthva guNam ) and eliminators of
virOdhis for serving as the servants of the Lord as a chosen  way of life . 
 
3. Oh PaadhukE (hE Paadhu ) ! You are known for Your tEjas(lustre)
which destroys the people filled with TamO guNams ( DhAma nirAkrutha
tAmasa lOkA ). You are worshipped by Your servants like Brahma ( dhAthru-
mukhai: daasai: vinathA ). You adorn the sacred feet of Lord Raaghavan
( VibhUshitha Raaghava PaadhA ) . Oh PaadhukE ! You remove entirely
all my sins ( Thvam mE pApam asEsham apApurushE )...(V.S). 
 
SlOkam 946
 
SrI GopAla Desika MahA DesikAya Nama:
 
Saarasa soukhya samEthA khyAthA padhapaa bhuvi svAj~njA
Saahasa KaaryavanAsA dheerA VasudhA navanyAsA
 
Meaning according to Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy :
 
The PaadhukA was interested in safeguarding the devotee ,
BharathA , who showed a stubbornness in his stand , sometimes
even improper . It ventures to protect devotee somehow. It grants
affluence .  Its ever-anew , charming steps would be impressive .
It enjoys the pleasure of the lotus flowers submitted as archana
oblations . The PaadhukA rules with a righteous mace . 
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : Oh PaadhukE ! You seem not to be
entirely satisfied with the intimate attachment with the Lord's feet . With Your
lustre and desire , You get power and without any let , You guard this earth
with compassion . Without any blemish , You purify through Your lustre
all the kings of the universe including BharathA . 
 
2) SrImath Andavan anubhavam : The inner meaning is : The SadAchAryAs
are easy to worship based on their auspicious attributes , ease of access ,
qualifications , readiness to respond . Their worship removes sorrows
and blemishes , creates purity and enhances Saathvika guNam
in preparation for reaching the limits of observing the Lord (Seshathva
Kaashtai). Hence , the arrival of such SadAchAryAs in our midst  is
worthy of prayers .
 
3) Oh PaadhukE ! You have the power and dayA to protect the land
between Vidhya and HimalayA mountains/AaryA Vartham ( hE PaadhAvani !
Thvam krupA anaga thrAtha subhU: ). You are blemishless (adhushtA ).
You are pure through Your lustre ( RuchA mEdhyA ).You belong to
the assembly of Saadhu Janams ( ParishadhA ). You are the protector
of Earth ( bhUpA ). You are the One , who is not satisfied  with the contact
with the sacred feet of Your Lord ( sthyAna sukhai: na thrupthA ).
You are with desire ( kAnthyA samEthA ). You have the power of
Office ( adhikruthA ) .Oh PaadhukE ! You are uninterruptable
( anirOdhA). Please appear before me ( Thvam aama ) !
