Oh Paaduka! Siva is at the top of Your devotees. You wish to confer
an honour on him. Therefore, You create Yourself in a similarity with
one of the eight aspect-forms of Siva, namely the sun, You resemble
the sun in having thousand rays. You are situated in Vishnupada, that
is the Lord's Foot. He travels on Vishnupada, the sky.
Namo Narayana,

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
SlOkam 857
1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Swamy Desikan describes here
the special blessings conferred by the PaadhukAs as Surya NaarayaNa
Moorthy on its prime devotee , MahEswaran . Swamy equates
the Paadhuka to the Surya because of both having mobility and
possessing thousands of rays like the Sun God. Swamy says:
" Oh PaadhukE ! You shine with thousand rays and move in
the skies with Your Lord. At that time , You resemble Surya ,
who is one of the eight forms of Maheswara, Your foremost
devotee. You bless Maheswara in this manner ".
2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! You are like the
SarIram for Sooryan , who is the first among Your devotees. You
possess thousands of rays from Your gems. You have sanchAram every
where due to links to VishNu Padham. Sooryan travels in the VishNu
padham (AakAsam ) .
3) Oh PaadhukE ( PaadhAvani) ! You are shining with thousands of
rays ( Bhavathee sphuDa mayukha sahasra dhrusyA ). You have Your
SanchArams due to the links to Your Lord's sacred feet ( Bhavathee
VishNO: padhEna vihitha prachArA ). Your foremost devotee is
MahEswaran and is bound to You ( Bhavathee Thvath bhakthi yanthritha
jana praTamasya Sambhu: ). You bless MahEswara by accompanying his
Soorya Svaroopa SarIram playfully .
