Sri:
SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,
Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

217. rAmasya rAkshasavaDhathvarithasya kAlE
padhAvani! prakatayanniva pArshNigupthim
AchithrakUtamaDhigamya shashamsa vArthAm
avyAhathathvadhaBhiShEkamrudhanganAdha:

Oh Paaduka! When Your abhisheka as ruler was consummated here, 
the drum-beating was heard as far as Chitrakoota, (announcing 
that You have been crowned here); it provided, as it were, a 
security guard for Rama to proceed fast in the forward direction 
to fell the rakshasa elements. Both Your coronation and Rama's 
progress were free of hindrances!

Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (VS):

1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE !
the auspicious sounds of the mangaLa Mrudangam 
played during the occasion of Your coronation
ceremony reached the foothills of ChithrakUtam ,
where RaamA was camping. That sound was intrepreted 
by RaamA as His defense on the rear side by the Paadhukai
to hasten His action to move forward with His mission
(avathAra kaaraNam )to destroy RaavaNA . RaamA felt that His
kingdom was secure now and that He need not worry about
anything left behind and moved on towards LankA 
with alacrity.

2) The sound of the Vaadhyams played during 
the occasion of PaadhukA pattAbhishEkam reverberated
all the way to ChithrakUtam hills, where RaamA was
staying . Those sounds seemed to say to RaamA waiting
impatiently to fulfil His avathAra kaaryam : " Please
proceed quickly forward . We have now arrived as 
the reinfircement to help You at the rear". The inner 
meaning is that PerumAL removes the SamsAric afflictions of
the Jeevans with the power of the AchAryAs.

3) Swamy Desikan says :" thvath abhishEka
mrudhanga Naadha: aachithrakUtam adhigamya 
vaarthAm sasamsEva " . ( The mrudhanga naadham
generated during your pattAbhishEkam travelled
without let all the way to the foot hills of 
ChithrakUtam and transmitted its message).RaamA 
was resting there impateintly to get on with His 
avathAra Kaaryam (i-e) to destroy RaavaNA and 
his entourage . The sound of Mrudhangam let it be known
that it will protect RaamA from the rear (PaarshNigupthim
prakaDayinnava) , when He would be fighting with 
the RaakshasAs in LankA ...VS
