Dear Sriman Sadagopan:

Regarding sloka  "Saarasa soukhya -----" should it not be sloka 947.  Per Sriman Tatachariar's edition,  this sloka is sloka 947 and sloka 946 is " krupAna--- nirOdhA" .  Per  Sriman Tatachariar's anubhavam sloka 944 and 945 as that of sloka 943 and 944  are also of gOmuthrika bhandham and that if the previous slokam is written as one line and beginning from the bottom last etc (sorry, adiyen is not able to exactly transliterate it) and he further expalins about the specialty of these two slokams with the bhinna vrutthhi prathilOma gOmuthrika bhandham figure.  Per  Sriman Tatachariar's anubhavam, if sloka 947 "Saaarsara soukhya----" is read backwards from the last padham, one will get another slokam (948) - "SanyA----.   Adiyen will be blessed if swamin can clarify and explain.

Adiyen may please be excused for any error (apacharam) on adiyen's part.

SlOkam 945
 
dhaamanirAkrutha tAmasa lOkA  dhAthrumukhair-vinathA nijadAsai:
pApam asEsham apAkurushE mE Paadhu ! vibhUshitha-Raaghava PaadhA
 
Meaning according to Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy :
 
Oh PaadhukA !  You see to it that the sacred land You reigned over
suffered no grief whatsoever. It was Your great grace. Faultless ,
effulgent , You had Your court filled with kings , whose affluence
were of a faultless nature . You never get  satisfied with the bliss
that You derive by enjoying close contact with the Lord's feet , nor
with the bliss You secure for devotees by way of their enjoyment
of the Lord's feet . You have powers to increase the bliss further & further ;
and there is no impediment to this role of Yours.
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
1) UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: This and the next verse form a duet of
verses representing " Bhinna Vruttha PRATHILOMA  gOmuthrikA bandha
padhya dhvayam . SlOkams 943 & 944 represented "bhinna vrutthhi
ANULOMA  gOmuthrika bhandha Padhya dhvayam ".
 
Here , Swamy Desikan says: " Oh PaadhukE ! You are adorning RaamA's feet
and with Your prowess have destroyed the community of asurAs . You are
being worshipped by Brahma and other devoted servants of Yours. You remove
all of my sins. 
 
2. Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that SadAchAryAs
like the Lord's Paadhukais are capable of destroying the demonic nature
(aasura svabhAvam ) of people . They are powerful to chase away the enemies
of people of Saathvic nature and enhance their satthva guNam further , which
in turn prepares them to reach the limits of being the servants (Seshathva 
Kaashtai) to the Supreme Lord .  They are pristinely pure like the Lord's
sacred feet and removes all the blemishes of those , who seek them as
refuge.They are thus highly qualified to destroy the aasura svabhAvams ,
counter Satthva Naasam ( destruction of Satthva guNam ) and eliminators of
virOdhis for serving as the servants of the Lord as a chosen  way of life . 
 
3. Oh PaadhukE (hE Paadhu ) ! You are known for Your tEjas(lustre)
which destroys the people filled with TamO guNams ( DhAma nirAkrutha
tAmasa lOkA ). You are worshipped by Your servants like Brahma ( dhAthru-
mukhai: daasai: vinathA ). You adorn the sacred feet of Lord Raaghavan
( VibhUshitha Raaghava PaadhA ) . Oh PaadhukE ! You remove entirely
all my sins ( Thvam mE pApam asEsham apApurushE )...(V.S). 
 
SlOkam 946
 
SrI GopAla Desika MahA DesikAya Nama:
 
Saarasa soukhya samEthA khyAthA padhapaa bhuvi svAj~njA
Saahasa KaaryavanAsA dheerA VasudhA navanyAsA
 
Meaning according to Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy :
 
The PaadhukA was interested in safeguarding the devotee ,
BharathA , who showed a stubbornness in his stand , sometimes
even improper . It ventures to protect devotee somehow. It grants
affluence .  Its ever-anew , charming steps would be impressive .
It enjoys the pleasure of the lotus flowers submitted as archana
oblations . The PaadhukA rules with a righteous mace . 
 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : Oh PaadhukE ! You seem not to be
entirely satisfied with the intimate attachment with the Lord's feet . With Your
lustre and desire , You get power and without any let , You guard this earth
with compassion . Without any blemish , You purify through Your lustre
all the kings of the universe including BharathA . 
 
2) SrImath Andavan anubhavam : The inner meaning is : The SadAchAryAs
are easy to worship based on their auspicious attributes , ease of access ,
qualifications , readiness to respond . Their worship removes sorrows
and blemishes , creates purity and enhances Saathvika guNam
in preparation for reaching the limits of observing the Lord (Seshathva
Kaashtai). Hence , the arrival of such SadAchAryAs in our midst  is
worthy of prayers .
 
3) Oh PaadhukE ! You have the power and dayA to protect the land
between Vidhya and HimalayA mountains/AaryA Vartham ( hE PaadhAvani !
Thvam krupA anaga thrAtha subhU: ). You are blemishless (adhushtA ).
You are pure through Your lustre ( RuchA mEdhyA ).You belong to
the assembly of Saadhu Janams ( ParishadhA ). You are the protector
of Earth ( bhUpA ). You are the One , who is not satisfied  with the contact
with the sacred feet of Your Lord ( sthyAna sukhai: na thrupthA ).
You are with desire ( kAnthyA samEthA ). You have the power of
Office ( adhikruthA ) .Oh PaadhukE ! You are uninterruptable
( anirOdhA). Please appear before me ( Thvam aama ) !
