Sri:
 
 SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,
 
 Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:
 
 
 956. mAtharmukundhakaruNamapi nihnuvAnAth
          kim vA param kimapi kilbiShathO madhIyAth

 Oh Mother Paaduka! If You were to pronounce that my sin is so 
 powerful, let me tell You this:-You get hold of the Lord's Feet 
 firmly and take Him over to various places in the pretext of His 
 strolls all around. It is Your sport to help me too! If this were 
 absent, then it only means that my sin, that compels me to refuse 
 and negate the Karuna of the Lord, the Moksha-giver, is the greatest 
 force on earth! How else will I be denied the Lord's grace in spite 
 of Your effort?
 
 Namo Narayana,
 
 SriMuralidhara Dasan
  
 Special Notes by V.Sadagopan 
  
 SlOkam 956
  
 1) UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: Citing the excuse of Your Lord's
 external travel , You tightly cling to Your Lord's feet and make 
 sure thaT He comes my way . If I do not have Your intervention , my 
 huge sins will prevent Him from showing mercy to me. You bring Him 
 over to me and that serves as my atonement  to banish my sins .If 
 you did not help, I will be unhappy and complain that Your Lord is 
 merciless. How can I then praise adequately Your help ?
 
  
 2) SrImath Andavan anubhavam : Oh PaadhukE ! You have
 unlimited affection (Vaathsalyam ) for me.Due to my limited
 intellect and unlimited sufferings , I assessed that You are
 indifferent to me and spoke rudely to you and complained that
 You are indifferent . Please pardon me for this apachAram.
 My sins are huge. The Lord is there to forgive the sinners
 and is ready to confer Bhogam and Mosham due to His 
 limitless dayA . My Paapams however prevent the Lord's 
 sahaja krupA coming my way . At this juncture , You perform 
 a MahOpakAram . You use the external excuse of bringing PerumAL 
 out of His sanctum for ullAsa sanchAram and hold on to His sacred
 feet tightly and pray for my upliftment . You make it possible for 
 me, who did not get inside the Lord's temple and bring the Lord 
 before me to chase away my paapams . If you had not taken this
 initative , there would be no sambhandham between me and my 
 Lord ;  He would have ignored me and that would have led to
 my total destruction . My paapams would have won in that case. 
 Swamy  Desikan expresses sorrow (nirvEdham ) over the power of 
 his paapams for our sake .  
  
 3)  SWamy Desikan states that there is nothing more exalted than 
 the DayA of the Paadhukai that propells it to intervene on behalf of
 the bhaddha Jeevans and make the recommendations to
 the Lord . He queries in a rhetorical sense : Is there anything 
 superior than the DayA of the Paadhukais to achieve the Lord's 
 intervention ? ( Param kimapi kim vaa? ). The Paadhukai uses 
 the excuse of taking the Lord for a walk and holds tightly to His
 feet during that sanchAram ( gamanApadEsAth ghADam gruhItha 
 charaNA ). The eager Paadhukai egg the Lord to engage in His role
 as the protector of all paapis  ( Tath PrEraNa praNayinee Tava 
 leelA ). If that intervention and appeal were not there , then there 
 would be no hope of gaining moksham by the samsAris ( prEraNa 
 praNayanee Tava leela na chEth , Mukundha: Mu Ku na dadhAthi) ...
