Oh Paaduka! You are like Dawn. You create the day for those who
resort to You, sealing the night of samsara once for all. For the Day
You have thus created there is no end, to lead to a night! The Devas
worship You as Brahmanas worship the Dawn (by Sandhyopasana). As the
dawn and sunrise blossom a lotus, You give a lustre of bloom to the
Lord's Feet-Lotuses.
[The Sandhya here referred to is the unique dawn after Samsara. The
Day is Moksha with unending bliss. We may place all sadhacharyas in a
par with the Paaduka for bringing the 'dawn' to us].
Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan ( V.S):
SlOkam 897
1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! When dawn comes , the
light of sun spreads. The defects associated with the darkness of the
night disappear. Righteous people worship therefore the dawn as the
harbinger of auspicious events. Dawn also opens up the lotus flowers
and makes them shine . All of these features are incorporated
in You . Hence , I consider You as the dawn (sandhyA ) that enhances
the beauty of the Lord's lotus feet.
2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! You confer on those ,
who perform prapatthi to You for the sole purpose of mOksham the
blessings of the day without the apperance of the dark night of
samsAram. There are no more births and deaths , no more puNyams and
Paapams no more sukham and dukkham for them. That is the equivalent
of the bright day without ensuing dark night. Your dayA eliminates
links with bodily existence forever. Your bright rays from your gems
are like a visEsha poorva sandhya ( Udhaya kaalam ) generating lustre
all around and removing all dhOshams as well as granting prapannAs
freedom from the cycles of births and deaths.
3. The PaadhukAs cause the destruction of the night of nescience
for those, who seek its refuge ( aasannAnAm prANinAm apunarnaktham
divasam aapAdhayanthee). The day filled with the lustre of true
Jn~Anam (Jn~Ana PrakAsa divasam) is born. Oh PaadhukE! You are
surrounded by the assembly of such blessed souls , who have acquired
such a true Jn~Anam (prahvai: vibhudha: nivahai: jushtAm Bhavathee
poorvasandhyEva vilasathi). That extraordinary poorva sandhyA
associated with Your blemishless lustre enhances the sObhai of the
lotus that is Lord RanganAthA's sacred feet..(V.S).
