At the time when Viswamitra sought Rama's help, the Paaduka embarked
on an errand through the forests. It took upon itself a fight with
the demons, Subahu and Maricha, to protect the yajna. Both seekers of
returns and Vedic seers perform pleasing services to the Paaduka.

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
SlOkam 937 : This style of chithra Bhandham is known as
" PrathipAdham bhAgA vrutthi ". According to SrImath
Andavan , it is also known as " Paadha chathushtya BhAgA
vrutthi yamakam " . In each of the four Padhams of this
slOkam , the padham , " CharaNAvani" appears as aavrutthi
( repeats). The viruttham (metre ) is known as UpajAthi
( made up of two metres). The first and the third Paadham
have Thraishtubha Chandhas ( 11 aksharams) and the second
as well as the fourth Paadhams have Jaagatha Chandhas
with 12 Aksharams each :

1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Swamy Desikan states here that
the Raama Paadhukais ascended the sky , when Sage ViswAmithrA
requested and battled SubAhu and MaarIchA and destroyed them .
They protected the Sage's Yaj~nA , served the VedAs and
the rishis of SiddhAsramam , who sought such help .
2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Paadhukais (AchAryAs) engage in
additional rakshaNa vyAparams (SaraNAgatha SamrakshaNam) for
the aasrithAs. They incarnated with the Lord during His
RaamAvathAram, followed Sage ViwAmithrA and transported the Lord in
difficult forest paths. They helped the Lord destroy the raakshasAs
like SubhAhu and Maareechan in the battle field and relieved the
stresses of the rishis of SiddhAsramam. Thus, they helped in the
removal of dangers faced by the Rishis in performing their penance
and Yaaga-Yaj~nams. They performed the AhalyA Saapa vimOchanam and
accepted the worship of the Rishis of SiddhAsramam and made them
dhanyAs .
3. Those Paadhukais transported the Lord in the harsh
paths of the forest during the time of travel to SiddhAsramam
for protecting the Yaagam of Sage ViswAmithrA ( TadhA vaneepaTE
virachitha sancharaNA ). They arrived at the battle field with
their Lord to destroy SubhAhu and Maareechan ( raNAvani gathA).
These Paadhukais protecting the Lord's Thiruvadi ( Raghupathi
charaNAvani) became the object of susrUshais ( service ) by
the sages , who sought freedom from the terror of the rAkshasAs
( vaneepakai: nigama mukhaisccha krutha paricharaNA abhUth )...(V.S).
