Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 756. shEShathvasImaniyathAm maNipAdharakshE! thvAmAgamA: kulavaDhUmiva bAlaputhrA: thvadhrUpaBhEdhashayithasya parasya pumsa: pAdhOpaDhAnashayithAmupaDhAnayanthi Oh Manipaaduka! The Lord is reclining on Adisesha, who is another form of Yours (designed for the Lord's service). You are then out of the Feet; You appear like reclining on His Feet. The Vedas incidentally, Your-children-like, are resting by Your side. You, as a chaste wife would do, do not leave the Feet even when there is no active service possibility. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Note by V.Sadagopan (V.S): SlOkam 756 1) UtthamUr Swamy : Oh Mani PaadhukE! Even when Your Lord sleeps and You are physically separated from Him , You are at the foot of His bed and do not lose Your seshathvam (Service as devoted servant). This is understood well by the vedAs and AagamAs. They consider themselves as the young children of Yours as You rest at the foot of the Lord's bed as the chaste wife waiting to serve Her Lord. 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that the true meanings of the VedAs would not have come out if Swamy NammAzhwAr did not bless us with His prabhandhams. Just as a chaste woman protects her children through Her Paathivratyam , AzhwAr (SaThAri) recieves His strength from the Lord as Sarva Seshin . 3)PerumAL is resting on Your other Roopam, AdhisEshan ( Parasya Pumsa: Thvadhroopa BhEdha: sayitha:). You are resting at His footstep ( Parasya Pumsa: updhAna sayithA) waiitng to serve Him, Your Lord.The VedAs are at Your feet and are like the helpless babies protected by the power of Your Chastity ( ThvAm BaalaputhrA: kulavadhUmiva upadhAnayanthi)...(V.S).
