Dear BhakthAs :
For few months now , both Dr.Murali Rangaswamy
and myself have been releasing one slOkam a day
of the powerful kaavyam of Swamy Desikan
eulogizing the PaadhukAs of SrI RanganAtha ,
which are Swamy NammAzhwAr .
We have to cover the rest of the 89 slOkams
before Purattasi SravaNam this year to reach
Kaimkarya Poorthy stage .
Those BhakthAs interested in recieving these
postings on the Paadhukais of Lord RanganAtha ,
the SRI RANGA SRI are requested to contact me .
There is an excellent a web site created by
SrI Achutharaman of Bangalore especially for
SrI RanganAtha PaadhukA Sahasram . Please let me
know if you need the URL for those web pages
containing the postings on the 480 of the 1008 slOkams
sofar .
SrI MadhavakkaNNan of Singapore has also housed
these postings in Swamy Desikan Home pages maintained
by him and SrI AchutharAman .
May the auspicious dhvani of the Lord's Padhukais
sound in your homes !
NamO SrI RanganAthAya
Daasan , V.Sadagopan

> 1) Anubhavam of UthtamUr Swamy : This type of chithrA poetry
> is known as " PaadhAnuloma prathilOmam " . This is also a kind of
> yamakam. If one considers this slOkam to be made of four quadrants,
> the first two quadrants have a mirror image effect ; so does the
> third and the fourth quadrant .The first quadrant "
> RaamapadhagathAbhAsA " is an exact mirror image
> of "saabhAdhagadhapAmarA". If we start reading from right to left ,
> we get exactly the first quadrant. The same situation prevails with
> the third and the fourth quadrant. There is coherent meaning conveyed
> thru the two quarants of the first and second pAdhams as mirror image
> inspite of the clever structuring of the individual paadhAs.
> For developing the meaning , the verse has to be split in to the
> following prose order : " Raama paadha gathA , bhasA , Saa paadhA,
> aagatha paamara, gath upa , ananjakAsahyaa, hi, aasa , kaanchana
> paadhukA".

> 1) Meaning according to UtthamUr Swamy' : The golden paadhukAs that
> reached RaamA's feet have movement marked by their brilliant lustre;
> through that lustre, they protect the DevAs from any illness or
> calamities and are foes to those, who are disrespectful to them .
> They are indeed the reasons for the protection of the Raajya Lakshmi
> of the kingdom of Raghus, when Raama was away for fourteen years.

> 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:The golden Paadhukais of Lord
> RanganAthan have (1) Aasritha soulabhyam with the Lord and therefore
> arrived in BhU Lokam from Brahma Lokam with the Lord (2) have power
> to remove all aathma vyAdhis and external enemies/bhAhya Chathrus (3)
> have power to burn even Sooryan through its tEjas. Thus they have
> Soulabhyam , Daya and tEjas like their Lord . That empowered
> them to rule over AyOdhya as the representative of their Lord during
> His exile .
>
> 3) The PaadhukAs have attained RaamA's sacred feet ( Raama paadha
> gatha). They arrived at SrIrangam with SrIranga VimAnam from
> BrahmA's abode of Sathya lOkam ( Kaath upAnanja ). This story is well
> known ( BhAthA aasa hi ) from SrIranga MahAthmyam The PaadhukAs
> have the tejas that will even burn the Sooryan ( Kaa asahyA ) . Kaa
> means Brahma , Sooryan and the Lord as well .They remove the diseases
> of the mind of the DevAs ( agadhapA= gadham+ pa+a;Gadham is illness ;
> Paa means to protect and "a" means does not have ) . The ones who
> have protection from illness are the DevAs due to the anugraham of
> the paadhukAs . Linked together , " agadhapA: amarA :" results. These
> illnesses are : ahankAra , MamakArams as Aathma vyAdhis.
