Translation by U.Ve. Sri V.N.VenakatanAthan Swamy
**************************************************

Oh PaadhukA ! The whole universe hangs on Earth , which was
born out of the Lord's feet , which are actually later implanted 
on You. When this Earth was in a helpless state, it had
to be rescued by You , at the right time. Rightly so ! 

Special Notes by V.SadagOpan (V.S):
************************************

(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : The DevAs in heaven 
look upon Mothr Earth as their well wisher.That is why 
the Lord appeared as a wild Boar (BhUvarAhan)
and brought back the stolen BhUmi Devi on His tusk 
from under the Ocean . When there was a vaccum in 
the succession to King DasarThA and when it looked 
as though Mother Earth had no ruler to maintain
righteousness , You responded to Her sorrowful 
request and accepted the rsponsibility of ruling 
the kingdom . Thus ,You rescued Mother Earth from 
Her trauma.

(2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam : Oh PaadhukE ! 
VisvambharA (Vasumathi/Mother earth) arose from 
the holy feet of the Lord that is being protected 
by You . When RaamA left for the forest , there was 
no one to protect the Raajya Lakshmi . At that time , 
You rememembered the Thiruvadi Sambhandham 
( Your relationship to the Lord's holy feet)
and came to Her protection .

(3) Here Swamy Desikan reminds us of a web of
relationships . The world is borne by Mother
Earth ( Visvam thvath aasritha:); Mother Earth
arose form the sacred feet of the Lord ( PadhAmbhuja
Sambhavam ) ; Those feet are protected by the gem-studded
Paadhukai . When RaamA gave up the kingdom in
favor of BharathA at the request of His father ,
Mother Earth became ananya SaraNA ( without 
refuge/protection ) Oh PaadhukE ! on that tremulous 
occasion for Vasumathi (Mother Earth) ,
You protected Her in remememberance of
the relationship between Mother Earth and
SarvEswaran... V.S
