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

thEjasthrithayamidham thE shankE rangEndhrapAdhukE! thEja:

 

Oh Paaduka! Your lustre incorporates the three-fold character of

light from the moon, fire, and the sun, because it can give a cool

relief from the three fold heat (tapatraya), it can help heat herbal

liquids (burn metal dirt) and it can dry up mud.

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

 

SlOkam 530:

 

1) UthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! There are three brilliant

sources of radiance in this universe. The integrated output of the

above three sources constitutes Your brilliant lustre. Your radiance

destroys the three afflictions known as AadhyAthmikam, Aadhidhaivam

and Aadhiboudhikam. Your lustre acts as a powerful decoction of herbs

to cure the illness caused by the above three afflictions. It dries

up the muddy fields of sins.I consider Your lustre as a reinforcing

combination of Sun, Moon and the Fire (Agni).

 

2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! In this prakruthi

maNdalam, Your tEjas destroys both the sins of the jeevans and the

three kinds of samsAric Taapams that they experience . I consider you

in this act as an embodiment of the integrated powers of the Sun ,

Moon and Agni. The inner meaning is that the AchAryAs will some times

speak sharply and other times display cool dayA to prevent us from

performing acts not permitted by the SaasthrAs. They are

recognized as Sarva vidha Bhandhus for the jeevans.

 

3) Oh Sri RanganAtha PaadhukE ! Your radiance destroys the three

kinds of taapams of the jeevans( thE tEja: tApa thrayam nirundhE ).

It evaporates /cooks the sins of the jeevans( kashAyAn pachathi). It

dries up the muds of sins as well (pankam visOshayathi). Therefore ,

I think that Your lustre has the combined power of the three

luminaries, the Sun, Moon and Agni ( atha: idham tEjasthriyam sankE …
