Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 935. thathAthatthAthithatthEthA thAthathIthEthithAthithuth thatthatthatthAthathithathA thathEthAthEthathAthuthA The itinerary of th Paaduka is vast. It excels th Lord Himself in its enjoyability and its status of being kept as the Goal of life. It will destroy with a great fury all the unhappy visitations (such as excessive rain, drought, pestilence, foreign invasion etc.) called Eeti pain. The Paaduka has ordained all things with their respective characteristics to be subservient to it. This kind of affluence of the Paaduka has a vast extent, all available to the devotee at the will of the Paaduka. It showers a bliss of experience by virtue of melodies, as from the Vina. That Paaduka, which has joined the Father of Manmatha, is like a Father to us all-sharing in our mirth and grief. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S): SlOkam 935: This slOkam is set in Ekahalka bhandham ..This slOkam contains only one "hul" sound and hence is known as Ekahulka bhandham. 1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : The PaadhukAs have large strides and are ready to move at any time. Since they are enjoyable and attainable, they exceed the status of Brahmam recognized by "Tath". They destroy the afflictions of samsAris. They are expansive as a result of the rows of objects and people under its suzeranity. They are surrounded by many musical instruments such as VeeNA, Drum et al. They are the property of the father of ManmathA and act as a father would to His children. The name of Ekahalkam derives from the Sanskrit grammar established by Panini's system. "Hal " is a technical _expression for all the consonants or for any consonant . This verse contains only one consonant and therefore is known as Ekahalkam. 2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning: The SadAchAryAs like the Raama Paadhukais display parama vAthsalyam to the Jeevans. They search for suffering jeevans and help them.They demonstrate to the mumukshus their extradinary accessibility as a goal and enjoyability through their Saasthra-SampradhAya anushtAnams. They remove the samsAric afflictions of the suffering jeevans and bless them with hitham . They act in the role of relatives in every way (Sarva vidha Bandhus) and make all the PurushArTams with in the reach of those who seek them out. They are sacred enough to have sthOthrams and geethams about them . They speak sweetly.(Madhura BHAshis). They enchant people with their divine tEjas (Brahma tEjas). They do not need the help of anyone to accomplish what they wish. Inspite of it, they demonstrate affection that is greater than one's own parents and treat other's sukha dukkhams as their own . 3. This extraordinary slOkam uses only the Meyyezhutthu of "Ta" . The split of the slOkam is as follows : TathAtatthA athitatthEthA thAthathi ithEthi- thAthituth tatthathatthath thAthithA tathA ithAtEtha thAthuthA The Raama PadhukAs have the power to travel eveywhere ( Tatha atatthA ). The PaadhukAs as objects of loftiness and enjoyability far exceeds the attributes of Brahman ( athi tatthA-- tath ithA ). The PaadhukAs have the power to destroy all sufferings fully ( itha EethithA athituth ) . They have under their control (adheenam) all objects of the world and their svabhAvams). They have the iswaryam of MangaLa Vaadhyams like VeeNA ( aatathA ). They are possessed by the father of Manmathan ( ith atAthuthA . ------------------------ Yahoo!
