SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

 

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

 

340. pragEva kAnchanapadhAvai! puShpavarShAth

samvarthithE shamithadhaIthyaBhayaI: surEndhraI:

padhmEkshaNasya padhapadhmanivEshalABhE

puShpABhiShEkamuchitham prathipadhyasE thvam

 

Oh Paaduka! The guardian-Devas of the different directions like to

shower a flower-downpour on You for Your having taken the Lord on the

mission of wiping out the asuras. But before they do so, You have

already received flower-oblation-shower -from the eye-glance of the

lotus-eyed Lord and from the Lotus Feet that are placed on You.

 

Namo Narayana,

 

SriMuralidhara Dasan

 

Special Notes by V.SatakOpan (V.S):SlOkam 340

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

(1) Abhinava Desikan's anubhavam: Oh Golden PaadhukE!

The Lords of the directions lose their fears , when

Your Lord destroys their enemies. They get ready to

shower flowers on Your Lord , when He comes to

the throne room. He looks at You to unite with You for

His travel to the throne room. At that time , You receive

the shower of flowers from His lotus eyes first and from

His lotus feet next as he enters You. It appears that

You receive the shower of flowers from Your Lord first ,

before He even receives such an honor from the Lords of

Directions waiting in the throne room to thank Him.

 

(2) Oh PaadhukE!Even before the pushpa varsham from

the grateful devAs can fall on Your Lord's lotus feet ,

the Lord has placed His lotus feet inside You

to travel to the dharbhAr to receive the waiting dEvAs.

Thus, You have gained the lofteiest lotus of them all--

Padha Paadha Padhmam of Your Lord , PadhmEkshanan--

first ...V.S
