SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas, 

Immersing himself in praising the Lord, and when
marvelled at the huge task, he started to get away by
fearing that he may not be able to complete or do
justice to His anantha kalyANa guNAs, and due to His
kataaksham and grace Alavandhar continues his praise;
and is now firm to let it continue. When Arjuna
started to get out of the battle, He mercifully looked
at him and similarky with His kataaksham, Alavandhar
asserts himself to continue. The reason for his
steadfastness is due to His dayA alone and due to His
Asritha vaasthsalyam.. and hence when Alavandhar
says.. starting (sthowmi) to praise You, he does not
belive that he is the karthA as swathanthran
(independent); but starting with saatvika thyAgam
(that it is being commenced by You with yoiur grace
and will be completed by You with the same dayA of
Yours). 

With the puNya papa, He grants fruits; and He blesses
us the devotees with further more such kaimkaryam due
to His greatest grace (vaathsalyam) on them; And
continuing the praise (sthOthra) is due to this
vaathsalyam. 

naavEkshasE yathi thathO bhuvananya mooni 
naalam prabhO bhavithumEva kutha: pravrtthi: 
yEvam nisarga suhrdi tvayi sarvajanthO: 
swAmin na chithramidham Asritha vathsalathvam [10]

PrabhO! SarvEshwaraa! Lord! The Granter of fruits! If
You do not bless [us] with Your benevolent glances and
grace [kataaksham], if there is no sankalpam (will) of
Yours, all these worlds would not even have strength
for function; how can there be any action at all!
Thus, on all beings (sarva janthu) You have, by Your
nature, love and affection.. and to such greatest You-
it is not at all surprising and no wonder that You
have such compassion and grace on Your devotees with
tremendous vaathaslyam on them.. 

The essential nature, the continuance of nature and
the functioning of all entities are dependent on the
essential nature of the Lord and the sankalpam of His.
All these entities are existing is their nature only
on account of the existence of the Lord. The
functioning of all entities is dependent on the
sankalpa (will) of ParamAthmA. 

If you do not cast your glances on the world, the
world can not even function; it would not even have
the power to exist; there can be no development
further at all; Thus it is natural for You to cherish
those who are devoted to You and You have greatest
affection and love on them. 

Some keep on thinking and doing only bad things for
others without any reason or cause. It is their
nature. Even they, when someone takes refuge in them,
would still do good to them and take care of them;
they would show love and affection on them. When such
is the case, You are SarvEshwaran, You always think of
good to everyone and every being at all times by your
very nature. There is no wonder in that. Not just my
sthOthram and act of praising You; everyone?s action,
including the funcition of the worlds, is all due to
Your sankalpam and Your kataaksham alone. Especially
when one ios devoted to You, Your bless them naturally
with Your vaathsayathvam to increase their devotion
multifold. yE bhajanthi thu mAm bhakthyA mayi thE
thEshu ChApyaham.. Your bhaktha vaathsalyam is thus
declared. Similar to Your blessing Dhruvan for
praising You, there is no wonder in blessing me with
Your kataaksham. Here along with kaaraNathvam,
Niyanthruthvam, Suhruthvam, Swamithvam, Alavandhar
enjoys His vaathsalyam.. as well. That is how one
should enjoy when uttering Dwaya mantra and
contemplate on its meaning.
