Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

 

331. aspruShtadhOShaparimarshamalanghyamanyaI:

hasthApachEyamaKhilam puruShArthavargam

chithram janArdhanapadhAvani sADhakAnAm

thvayyarpithA: sumanasa: sahasA phalanthi

 

Oh Paaduka! It is rather interesting that the flowers presented as

oblations to You yield fruits in the form of the variety of human

goals (Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha), quickly too! The fruits are

untainted by any stigma, impossible of being ignored or rejected, and

easily hand-picked because of being within easy reach!

 

Namo Narayana,

 

SriMuralidhara Dasan

 

Special Notes by V.SatakOpan (V.S): SlOkam 331

***********************************************

(1) Abhinava Desikan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE of

JanArdhana ! The flower offered to You during Your

worship results in therealization of the boon to pick up

effortlessly the purest and difficult-to-reach flowers

of PurushArtham . The four PurushArthAs come within their

( the Pushpam oferer's) reach readily. ( These PurushArthams

are (1) arthA / the acquisition of wealth (2) KaamA/gratification

of one's desire (3)DharmA /the discharge of one's duties

and (4) MokshA/the final emancipation from the cycles of

repeated births and deaths .

 

(2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! when some one

offers flowers to You , they are blessed with blmishless

PurushArthams. They receive them very quickly. There is

some thing wonderful here. Normally , a flower will turn

into a green fruit first, ripen over time and yield the eatable

fruit at the right season. In Your case, the flowers placed

on You yield many enjoyable kinds of fruits rightaway .

 

(3) "Thvayi arpithAnAm Sumanasa: (flowers offered to You )

asprushta dhOsha parimarsam ( blemishless ) saadhakAnAm

akhilam purushArtha vargam Phalanthi ( for the worshippers ,

yield all types of PurushArthams almost immediately).

Those groups of PurushArthams ( Vargams) become easy to

pick (hasthApachEyam) with one's own hands...(V.S)
