Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 782. prathithiShTathi pAdhasammithAyAm thvayi nithyam maNipAdhukE! mukundha: itharE thu paricChadhAstha EthE viBhavavyanjanahEthavO Bhavanthi Oh Manipaaduka! The Lord stands on You, solidly placed, at all times, You almost becoming part of Him. His other external paraphernalia (like the umbrella, the chamara etc.) are merely the symbols and evidences of His great Lordship with affluence of every kind. Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S): 1) UthtamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh Mani PaadhukE! Lord is consecrated in You , who is equal in holiness to His feet. His status becomes preeminent through the union of His holy feet with You. He wears You at all times independent of whether He is walking or not. Rest of His accoutrements like the umbrella , fan , aabharaNams and ress do not have the same intimate relationship that You have with Your Lord. They are only useful to announce His wealth and soverignity. 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Whether the Lord is standing or sitting or moving around , The PaadhukAs are the Ones that serve His body always. The rest of the Lord's possessions like umbrella , aabharaNams are merely for the glorification of His Isvaryam as SarvEswaran. 3) Oh Mukundha MaNi PaadhukE ! Both of You fit exactly the dimensions of Your Lord's Thiruvadis and support / serve the Lord's ThirumEni . Your Lord is always with You ( Paadha SammithAyAm Thvayi Mukundha: nithyam prathithistathi).All the other isvaryams of the Lord like the white umbrella signifying His soverignity over all universes ( tE yEthE itharE paricchadhaa: ) are only symbols to remind one of the glories of His mahimA ( tE yEthE itharaa: vibhava-vyanjana hEthava: bhavanti).The key words here are " Mukundha: Thvayi nithyam prathishtathi " .All the others have occasional uses and are solely for the revelations of His Isvaryam ( Vibhava vyanjana hEthurEva bhavanthi ) .... (V.S). Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
