SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

 

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

 

650. sakrudhapi vinathAnAm thrAsamunmUlayanthIm

thriBhuvanamahanIyAm thvAmupAshrithya nUnam

na jahathi nijakAnthi pAdhukE! rangaBharthu:

charaNanaKhamaNinAm sanniDhOu moUkthikAni

 

Oh Paaduka! You expel all fears, totally, in the case of one who is

bent in obeisance to You only once. Your greatness is the subject of

praise for all the three worlds. This being so, the pearls which have

clung to You will not lose their lustre to appear dim and dull, even

in the presence of the over-radiant gemws of nails of the Lord's

Feet. This is certain.

 

Namo Narayana,

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S)

 

SlOkam 650

 

1) UthtamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! Your pearls because of

their association with You do not have any fear about their purity

or ability to remove the fears of others approaching them for help.

You empower them . Otherwise , they would not be able to compete with

the lustre of the toe nails of Your Lord. Your power also keeps them

free of any defects normally found in gems of different kinds.

 

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! The pearls adorning You

are not afraid of Your Lord's toe nails. They do not lose their

lusture even in the proximity of Your Lord's radiant toe nails.

They have joined You , who banishes the sins of all those seeking

Your refuge even once .

 

3)Oh PaadhukE! The pearls join You , who is celebrarated in

all the three worlds for removing the fear and sins of all ,

who seek Your protection even once ( PadhukE! sakrudhapi

vinathAnAm thrAsam unmoolayanthIm , thribhuvana mahanIyAm

ThvAm mokthikAni upAsrithya ) and they do not lose their radiance

even at the proximity of the Lord " s radiant toe nails

( ThvAm upaasrithya , Rangabarthu: charaNa nakha maNInAM

sannidhou nija kAnthim na jahathi). This is for sure(noonam)..(V.S).
