Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 770. mAnayAmi jagathasthamOpahE mADhavasya maNipAdhukE! yuvAm dhakshiNOttharagathikramOchithE paDdhathI iva mayUKhamAlina: Oh Twin-Paadukas! You both let the stroll of the Lord to occur in the right and left directions respectively, in His effort to relieve this world of its grief, even as the sun resorts to the Dakshinayana and Uttarayana paths in order to dispel the darkness in the world. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S): SlOkam 770 1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh Gem-studded PaadhukEs! You are like the dakshiNAyanam (Winter Solistice) and UttharAyaNam (Summer solistice)periods of the Sun's movement. Like the Sun removes the darkness during its travels during the two ayanams , You (PaadhukAs) also remove the darkness of spiritual ignorance. Your steps are like the steps taken by the Sun during its two solistices. 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh Paadhukais! When we see You both, You appear like DakshiNAyanam and UttharAyaNam.These two ayanams banish darkness and bless the world with illumination. You both banish ajn~Anam and bless Your devotees with true knowledge. The inner meaning is that a SadAchAryan removes ajn~Anam and blesses one with Sadh vidhyA through anugrahams and upadEsams. 3)Maadhavasya MaNi PaadhukE! You remove the world's nescience and we celebrate you for that ( Jagatha: tamOpahE mAnayAmi). We consider You both as DakshiNAyaNam and UttharAyaNam , the two ways of the Sun ( YuvAm dakshiNa -uttharagathi krama uchithE mayUkamAlina: paddhathi iva mAnayAmi). V.S
