NOTES BY V.SADAGOPAN(V.S)
*************************

(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam:Oh Mukhundha PaadhukhE!
AdiyEn does not want any fruits of my auspicous deeds(PuNyam)
arising from my steady and sincere meditation on You .
AdiyEn does not want the pleasures associated with 
the enjoyment of the beautiful ApsarassthrIs or 
their place of rsidence (Svargam ).AdiyEn wishes 
only to have the boon of Moksham as a result of 
unceasing dhyAnam about You , since You are 
the protector of the holy feet of Mukhundan or 
Moksha DhAyakan .

(2) Srimadh Andavan's anubhavam : When one succeeds 
in retaining the dhyAnam of the Lord's Paadhukhais 
firmly in one's mind, then the pleasures of sporting
with the Apsaras shrIs in Svargam have no hold on them.
They are disgusted by such thoughts. Pleasures which
appear to be enjoyable at the outset and yet yield 
only miseries later will disappear form their minds .

(3) Swami Desikan refers here to the benefits of 
AbhyAsam of uninterrupted PaadhukhA dhyAnam ( NammAzhwAr
DhyAnam ).Such steady dhyAnam creates a VaasanA 
(Pazhakkam ), which banishes thoughts about perishable
pleasures such as sthrI BhOgams ( SiRRibham)...V.S
