Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

607. ayamanitharaBhOgAn ranjayan vItharAgAn
aruNamaNigaNAnAm thAvakAnAm prakAsha:
maDhuripupadharakshE! mankshu jAjvalyamAna:
shalaBhayathi janAnAm shAshvatham pAparAshim

Oh Paaduka! People, who have forsaken love in respect of all things, 
but cherish a love of the Padmaraga gems, would have their long-
standing heaps of sins too consigned to the flame so to say, of the 
gems.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V. Sadagopan (V.S) 

1. UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh MadhusUdhana PaadhukE! 
The Yogis characterized by their dispassionate nature are exhilarated 
when they see You. They are without raaga (attachment) or passion.
Even these passionless acquire joy (passion ) from seeing You. The 
red glow from the rubies on Your body spreads everywhere and destroys 
the heaps of sins of the people like fire flies destroyed by an open 
flame. 

2. SrImath Andavan's anubhaavam : The inner meaning is the paasurams 
sung by Swamy NammAzhwAr with great desire for his Lord are 
considered red gems (padhmarAgam). The meanings of these paasurams 
immerse the rasikAs in an ocean of aananadham. The comprehension of 
the meanings of AzhwAr's paasurams also destroys the sins of the 
listener just like the fire flies falling into a bright lamp. Even 
sinners listen to AzhwAr's paasurams with great delight and feel 
uplifted. 

3. Here Swamy Desikan focuses on the Yogis , who do not cultivate any 
desires (veetha raagAn ) except attachment to the Lord ; they also 
do not enjoy anything (anithara-bhOgAn) except Bhagavath anubhavam. 
The shining assembly of the bright red rubies on the Paadhukais 
(jaajvalyamAnA: ThavakAnAm aruNamaNi gaNAnAm prakAsa: ) gladden 
(ranjayan) the hearts of these Yogis. The lustre from these red 
rubies destroys quickly and permanently the age old sins of people ( 
ThAvakAnAm aruNamaNi prakAsA: muhu: janAnAm saasvatham paapa-raasim 
salabhayathi)?(V.S)
