Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

370. rangEshapAdhasahaDharmachari! thvadhIyAn
moULoU nivEshya mahithAn padhavIparAgAn
santhasthrivargapadhavImathilanGhyanthO
moUloU padham vidhaDhathE vibhuDhEshvarANAm

Oh Paaduka, describable as the Dharmapatni to the Lord's foot! Great 
men who bear Your dust on their heads transcend the reach of the 
seekers of Dharma-Artha-Kama triad and go beyond to place their feet, 
as though, on the heads of chiefs of Devas. 

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.SatakOpan (V.S): SlOkam 370
***********************************************
(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam:
Oh PaadhukE ! Oh RanganAthA's follower in all
His travels ! Those who wear Your celebrated dust
specks on their heads during their last moments on
this earth skip the PurushArthAs like DharmA , ArthA
KaamA and end up with their feet on the heads
of DevAs.Swamy Desikan says that such people are honored by
the DevAs and latter carry such people's feet on their
heads to display their high esteem.

(2)Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! Those mahAns
who wear Your dusts on their heads reject Brahma pattam
and kaivalyam (aathmAnubhavam) and are revered by
the lofty dEvAs.

(3)Here Swamy addresses PaadhukA Devi , the one of the five
consorts of the Lord , as Paadha-sahadharmachAri . Swamy says
that the bhAgyasaalis , who sanctify themselves by adorning
the dust from the Paadhukais jump over the triple boons
of Dharma-artha-Kaamams ( Thrivarga padhavIm athilankayantha:)
and become qualified to receive their feet on the heads
of the dEvAs (VibhdhEsvarANAm MouLi padham santha:
vidhadhathE)...(V.S).
