SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas, 

There should be no other enjoyment for me in this
world; except You and You alone- prayed Alavandhaar.
But in as much as the enjoyment of Yours and devotion
for Your Lotus feet should be granted to me here,
please bless me the devotion for Bhaagawathas. The
association with Bhaagawathas should always be there
for me. Tad paadha bhakthi jnAnAbhyaam phalam anyath
kadhaachana ? na yaachEth. Thus one can pray to the
Lord for jnAnam, love, devotion, for Bhagawaan.
Similarly one can also seek Bhaagawatha bhakti as
well. That is not kaamyam. 

thava daasya sukhaika sanginaam 
bhavanEshu asthu api keeta janma mE
idharaavasathEshu maa sma bhoodh
api mE janma chathurmukhAthmanaa [55] 

Please bless me to be born as even a small worm at the
thirumaaLigai (house) of Bhaagawatha- Paramaikaanthin-
who are devoted only at Your Lotus Feet and enjoy only
the Lotus Feet of Yours; may I be born so. BUT PLEASE
DO NOT let me be born even as the Chathur mukha brahmA
[the four faced Brahmaa] in the residence of those who
do not consider themselves as devotees of Yours. 

The Bhaagawathaas- are grander and more glorious than
even the rivers like Ganges, Cauveri, etc.. The fruits
of taking holy baths in the sacred rivers- is perhaps
the association with Bhaagawathaas. The white cloth
gets its colour when other colours join the same;
similarly, the sathsangam makes one shine like gold
and be resplendent with Bhakthi for the Lord. Hence
there should be nithya vaasam (permament residence) in
the ThirumaaLigai (residence) of Bhaagawathaas.
Instead of being born as human beings and then have
association with the Bhaagawathas and then leave them
due to some reason, it is even better to be born as
worm in the residence of Bhaagawathas- thereby there
is no chance or avenue to even go out of the house.
Even if it gets crushed inadvertently by Bhagawathas,
it is even grander to die there. During its short
life, there will be at time occasional kataaksham at
those worms by those Bhagawaathas. That itself is
enough. Pasur manushya pakshI vaa- they bless all
beings with benovelent grace. 

Instead, even it is equal to the status of Chathur
mukha Brahmaa, OR even given a chance to rule all this
universe as Brahmaa (four faced one) it is still lowly
and will do no good to Athma vichaaram. Also brahmaa?s
life is so long, one needs to suffer and suffer and
suffer with samsaaric affliction. What is the use of
education, wealth, power, fame- when there is no
devotion for Bhagawaan, no detachment (vairAgyam) etc?
