SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

 

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

 

625. avaImi pAdhAvani! moUkthikAnAm kIrNAmudhagarI: kiraNaprarOhaI:

yAthrOthsavArtham vihithAm murArEraBhangurAmankurapAlikAm thvAm

 

Oh Paaduka! Your pearls look like sprouting up. Is it then the

Navadhanya palika ritual of germinating grains to mark a procession-

festival of the Lord?

I presume so.

 

Namo Narayana,

 

SriMuralidhara Dasan

 

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

 

SlOkam 625

 

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! I visualize You

as a vessel in which sprouted grains are seen during the time of

Your Lord's annual festivals at the Yaj~na SaalAs. The white lustre

of Your pearls adorning You appear like the white sprouted buds

seen on those occasions.

 

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The marriage and other Vedic

ceremonies require the growth of Paalikais . The seedlings grow

in four days into small plants. Similarly , SadAchAryA's

katAksham and anugraham will permit a sishyan to have

the SaakshthkAram of PerumAl.

 

3)PerumAl has Yaathra Uthsavam and has the puRappAdu.

The spreading lustre form the pearls on the Paadhukais

( moukthikAnAm udhagrai: kiraNa prarOhai:)look like

PaalikA vessels with the white sprouts from grains

( uthsavaarTam vihithAm abhankurAm angurapAlikAm iva)

that are shooting out...(V.S)
