Vyakhyana Saram:This shloka might appear at first hand to be speaking lowly of other acharyas. However, by the principle that words of acharyas and elders are meant topraise one thing or person but not put down another (nahi nindA nyAyam), this shloka is simply meant to praise the great Sri Suktis of Pillai Lokacharyar.Desikan is stating that the rahasya granthas of Lokacharyar are the ornamentsworn by Sri Ranganatha (similar to what was expressed in the previous shloka)and that these are sufficient for the chetanas that seek libreation from theocean of samsara.
