SrimathE RaamAnujAya nama:

(158) yathra kvachiddh viharathOapi padhAravindham
rakshyam mayA RaghupathErithi bhAvayanthyA 
nissEshamEva sahasA MaNipAdharakshE
nishkaNDakam jagathidham vidhadhE bhavathyA 

Translation by Sri U. Ve Sri V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy : 

Oh PaadhukA ! Rightly did you decide that You decide 
that You should ever serve RamA's feet. For this , You made
the whole world free of thorns (enemies) by Your mere will .

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):

(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : Oh MaNi PaadhukE!
You were determined to protect RaamA's lotus feet from 
thorns , wherever He went . Thinking in this manner, 
You made the whole world free of thorns , so He could roam 
freely without hardship , while You stayed without 
movement in AyOdhyA to help BharathA .Thorns here 
stand for all inauspicious happenings. Swamy Desikan 
says here that the PaadhukAs made the whole world free 
from all kinds of inauspiciousness , while it ruled 
AyOdhyA as RaamA's representative , just as they 
protected RaamA's feet from the stones and thorns of 
the forest . 

(2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam : The inner meaning is that 
SadAchAryAs generate bhakthi to PerumAL in all people.

(3) KaNDakam means thorn .NishkaNDakam means free of
thorn or inauspiciousness . The first mission of 
the Paadhukai is " RaghupadhE's padhAravindham 
mayA rakshyam " ( The Lord's lotus feet must be
protected by me ). Thinking like that ( BhAvayanthyA ),
Paadhukai of the Lord ended up accomplishing more than
its primary duty(viz)., making the whole world
free of auspiciousness .
