Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 584. vivruNOthi rangapathirathnapAdhukE! thvayi padhmarAgamaNipaDdhathi: shuBhA nibidOrusanGhatanapIdanaksharan maDhukaItaBhakshathajapankavAsanAm Oh Ranganatha Paaduka! The charming array of the ruby gems-which is incidentally very auspicious-is perhaps a continuity from the blood flow that the Lord caused by squeezing the asuras, Madhu and Kaitabha, between His thighs. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V. SadagOpan (V.S): SlOkam 584: 1) UthtamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh RanganAthA's rathna paadhukE! The auspiciousness of the red hue associated with Your PadhmarAga gems seem to serve as the reminder of the blood that flowed from the bodies of the asurAs, Madhu and KaiDabhA, when lord HayagrIvan crushed them between His thighs . Your PadhmarAgA gems seem to remind us of that incident of yore vividly. 2) The inner meaning is that the red rubies of the Paadhukais are equated to Swamy NammAzhwAr's Paasurams dealing with His kaamam for the Lord. They remove the RajO and TamO guNams from those who experience them and creates special raagam (desire ) for the Lord . 3) Oh PaadhukE! Your rows of PadhmarAga gems are most auspicious ( SubhA PadhmarAga-maNi Paddhathi ). They highlight (VivruNOthi) the color of the thick blood ( Kashathaja pankam ) that flowed from the bodies of Madhu ? KaiDabhaas, when they were crushed by the Lord ( niBhiDa Uru sangadana peedana Madhu-Kaidabha kshathja panka vAsanAm vivruNOthi). During His avathAram as HayagrIvA, the Lord crushed the two demons between His thighs and destroyed them effortlessly. The blood flowed copiously and formed thick, muddy red pools ( Madhu-KaiDabha Ksahtaja Pankam vivruNOthi)?(V.S).
