Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 891. thvarithamupagathAnAm shrImathO rangaBharthu: thvadhupahithapadhasya svaIrayAthrOthsavEShu muKharayathi dhiganthAnmuhyathAm thvathprashAsthoU vihithakusumavruShtirvyAvaGhOShI surANAm Oh Paaduka! The Lord inserts His Feet into You and starts on His random walk as desired. Then flock the Devas to enjoy the Lord, Sri Ranganatha, in great haste since they wish to have clear sight of You, which is possible only now. And they shower flowers and heap praises in great mirth at loud pitch. The noise of the eclat would reach the frontiers of the globe. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V.Sadagoipan (V.S): SlOkam 891 1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Swamy Desikan states that the DevAs are attached to the PaadhukAs to a degree more than they are to Lord RanganAtha Himself. He says: "Oh PaadhukE ! RanganAtha gets off from You during His festivals to travel on the back of Garuda , HanumAn , horse , elephant et al. The DevAs rush to see You before Your Lord leaves You to ride on the other VaahanAs. The DevAs praise You and raise such a din that their laudatory words are not heard clearly. They shower flowers on You and their eulogies echo at all quarters. It seems that they are concentrating on You alone instead of thinking about Your Lord RanganAtha. They rush to see You and are overcome by the experience of worshipping You. 2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: It is uthsavam time at SrIrangam. Lord of SriRangam comes out adorning His PaadhukAs. He travels aroud protected by PaadhukAs and does not worry about the thorns, stones and the ups and downs in the road.His joyous sanchAram assisted by the PaadhukAs is beautiful to watch .The dEvAs and the people of SrIrangam rush to enjoy this vinOdha sanchAram of the Lord facilitated by the PaadhukAs. The dEvAs eulogize the PaadhukAs and their sthOthrams resonate in all directions. There is tumult and din from all those activities generated from the adoration of the PaadhukAs. 3. Lord RanganAtha is saluted here as "SrImatha: Rangabharthu: " , the Lord of SrIrangam, who is never seperated from His PirAtti . He has entrusted the protection of His sacred feet to the Paadhukais ( Thvath upahitha padhasya) and as a result is travelling at uthsava kAlams with no worry to speak off ( svaira sanchAram). The dEvas rush to enjoy this joyous and care-free sanchaaram of the Lord made possible by the Paadhukais and eulogize the latter ( thvaritham upagathAnAm Thvath prasasthou muhyathAm SurANAm ) . The dEvAs pour copious showers of flowers at the PaadhukAs to express their joy ( SurANAm vihitha kusuma vrushti: ) and loudly proclaim the many auspicious attributes of the PaadhukAis that echos in all directions ( vyaavaghOshi diganthAn mukharayathi)....(V.S). ------------------------ Yahoo!
