SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

Translation of Paaduka Sahasram by U.Ve. Sri V.N. Vedanta Desikan
Swamin: 

82.biBharShi Nithyam MaNipAdhukE! thvam vishvamBharam DhAma nijEna
BhUmnA
thavAnuBhAvashchuLakIkruthOyam BhaktaIrajasram BhavatIm dhaDhAnaI:

Oh Paaduka! You permanently bear the Lord (who Himself bears all the
worlds) 
by Your intrinsic greatness; but then this greatness is a moiety-a
palmful- 
compared to the greatness the devotees acquire by reason of their
bearing 
You on their heads!

Note: This is not belittling the Paaduka by any stretch of imaination
even. 
Bhaktas derive their greatness now only from Paaduka. They are more 
praiseworthy. That is the implication here.

Namo Narayana,

Adiyen, 

SriMuralidhara Dasan
