Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 660. rangEshacharaNarakshA sA mE vidhaDhAthu shAshvathIm shuDdhim yanmoUkthikapraBhABhi: shvEthadhvIpamivasahyajAdhvIpam May that Paaduka grant me sanctity, which by its pearl-lustre made Sriranga island another Sweta-dwipa! Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S) SlOkam 660 1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: May Lord RanganAthA's PaadhukAs bless me with everlasting sanctity and Qualify me for Moksham , just as they do with the brilliance of their pearls make the island of Srirangam created by Cauvery river equal in color and sanctity to the SvEtha dhvIpam, the island north of the milky ocean . 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: There is an island known as SvEtha dhvIpam , where every thing has a white lustre. Residents of this island are blessed to see the Lord with their own eyes. Paadhukais are enmeshed with pearls. Their lustre makes the whole of Srirangam filled with a brilliant white hue. May that island of SrIrangam blessed by the lustre of the rays of Your pearls banish all my sins! The land of Tamil speaking people , the venue of the recitation of the Tamil Prabhandhams of Swamy NammAzhwAr is like the sacred SvEtha DhvIpam . 3)May the Paadhukais protecting Lord RanganAthA's Thiruvadis banish all sins of adiyEn ( Saa RangEsa CharanarakshA mE sAsvathIm suddhim vidhadhAthu). Through the kaanthi of the pearls adorning the paadhukais of the Lord , the entire island of SrIrangam formed by the two branches of Cauveri becomes equal to the sacred SvEtha dhvIpam (Yath moukthika prabhAbhi: SahyajA dhvIpa , SvEtha dhvIpamiva )...(V.S).
