SrimathE RaamAnujAya nama:

(157) KaakuthsaTha paadha viraha prathipanna mounAm
nishpandhathAm upagathAm MaNi PaadharakshE !
aasvAsayanniva muhur Bharatha: tadhAnIm
seethiaravIjayatha chAmara Maaruthai: thvAm 

Translation by U.Ve.Sri V.N.VedAntha Desikan 
*********************************************

Oh PaadhukA ! BharathA presented cool Chamaara kaimkaryam
( Fan wafting service ) to You as if to alleviate 
Your grief on Separation from RaamA's sacred feet.
You were indeed in need of this since You sat 
silently and statically .

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 and sharp stones , 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.
The thorns here refer to all kinds of inauspicious
happenings. Swamy Desikan states that the PaadhukAs made 
the whole world free from all kinds of amangaLams ,
while it ruled AyOdhyA as RaamA's representative , just
as it protected RaamA's feet from the stones and 
thorns of the forest .

(2) Srimath Andavamn's anubhavam : Oh PaadhukE ! 
You were in a state of shock from the separation from
Your Lord's holy feet. At that time , You did not
speak or move. BharathA performed his chaamara
Kaimkaryam to help You reconcile with Your sorrow.

(3) Swamy recognizes the maNi Padhukais as Kaakuthstha
Paadhukais. Kaakuthstha is an epithet for the kings
of solar race ( Kakuthstha Vamsam ). The Paadhukai
of Kaakuthstha Raaman stayed at AyOdhyA and suffered 
very much from the sorow of separation form the Lord's 
sacred feet ( Kaakuthstha Paadha Viraha prathipanna 
mounam , nishpandhathAm ) and was quiet and motionless 
as if in a state of fainting. BharathA came to the rescue 
and tried to reduce the intense suffering of the Paadhukai
through his frequent wet-fan service to the Paadhukai . 
It appeared as though BharathA was trying to console 
the Paadhukai through this noble service ( AasvAsayanniva 
seethai:chAmara Maaruthai: avIjayatha)and speak to him ...V.S
