NOTES BY V.SADAGOPAN
*********************

(1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam:Oh Lord's PaadhukhE ! When You are 
placed on he heads of BhakthAs , You cause them to attain 
the highest state of spiritual perfection .Such a blessing 
comes within thier reach due to Your grace and power.

(2) Sri Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukhE ! BhakthAs receive You
with heads bent with respect .What happens to them as a result ?
Your Lord presiding at a very high place beyond the reach of
the BhakthAs suddenly becomes accessible to them due to Your
intercession . The inner meaning is that When one worships 
the AchAryAs with sincerity , PerumAL comes readily within 
their reach.

(3) Swami Desikan says that the contact with the Paadhkhais 
lifts the BhakthAs to a very high status immediately ( ThAmm
unnathIm sapathi prApnuvanthi). That exalted status is 
not easily attainable (anithara sulabham )by those , 
who do not have the devotion to and contact with the PaadhukhAs 
( PaadhukhA Sambhandham )of the Lord . For those , who are easliy 
elevated to the exalted status by the PaadhukhAs reach out 
and touch the radiant Lord easily with their very hands 
( tath DhAma: thEshAm hasthApachEyam )... V.S
