Oh Paaduka! You hear the person of Lord Ranganatha on You on all His
peregrinations. What is striking is that the same Lord wished, so to
say, to reverse the role and bear You even on Your walks! So he put
mother Earth in between; took the forms, namely, the pivotal base
Koorma, Adisesha, the eight cardinal direction-elephants, the
principal mountains-all being the Lord (as per the maxim 'Sarvam
Vishnumayam Jagat') and bore all these and You too!
May I be enabled to bear You on my head!
Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan

1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! Like You bear Him on
Your back duirng Your Lord's journeys, He bears You at other times in
the guise of bearing BhUmi DEvi. He takes the form of earth-holding
tortoise (AadhAra Koormam), AadhisEsha, the elephants of the eight
directions, Kula parvathams et al. May I have the blessings of
carrying You , who is carried by the Lord Himself on His head?
2.SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Bhumi is carried by Aadhi Koormam ,
AaadhisEshan, the eight elephants guarding the directions and the
seven KulAchalams. That BhUmi supports the Paadhukais. It is
ultimately the Lord, who as the SarIram for all sentients and
insentients. Out of His Vaathsalyam, Soulabhyam, Souseelyam and
OudhArya GuNams and His affection for You, the Lord bears You through
many His many forms .
3. Oh PaadhukE ! During SanchAra Kaalam , Lord RanganAthan carries
You, who is over the BhUmi Piratti that He is carrying ( Sa: Rangee
api kshithi-vyavahithaam ThvAm gathishu vahathi). He does so through
the many froms (BhumikA BhEdai: vahathi) He takes to carry BhUmi
Piratti and Yourself on Her serving as His Paadhukais. These
different forms to carry BhUmi Devi by the Lord are: Aadhi Koormam (
KamaDa Pathy ), AdhisEshan (Bhujaga PariBhrudan), seven mighty
mountains ( Kulasikhari) and the eight elephants of the directions (
Karivara: )...(V.S) .
