Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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


836. madhyE parisPhurithanirmalachandhrathArA
prAnthEShu rathnakarENa vichithravarNA
puShNAsi ranganrupathErmaNipAdhukE! thvam
chakshurvashIkaraNayanthravishEShashankAm

Oh Paaduka of Rangaraja! You have pure flawless gold in the centre; 
there are pearls too. On the border, You have an array of gems, with 
a variety of 
colours. With this appearance, You act on us. 

Mica sheet with a design of moonlike circle, scribing pranava in the 
centre and the syllable of mantras all around, serves as an amulet to 
mesmerize 
people.

You act like an amulet on the observers, I suspect, (Azhvars and 
Acharyas, when paid homage to, will act as mesmerizing influence to 
grant us salvation).

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

slOkam 836

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh MaNI PaadhukE! At Your middle 
portion, You are adorned with bright and clear cluster of gold and 
pearls. At the edges, You are adorned with clusters of beautiful 
colored gems. The combination of these two features make You look 
like a bewitching YanthrA (geometric pattern of the ManthrA for a 
DEvathA ) to behold !

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! On You are enmeshed many 
kinds of beautiful colored gems and pearls. That confers You many 
hues such as white, red, green, blue et al. Thus You have many 
charming roopams. Those who see You are unable to disengage from 
enjoying Your many roopams and get their eyes locked on You. The 
situation mkaes one wonder whether Your Bhauvitha Roopams are like 
a Yanthram designed to bring people under Your influence and control.

3) Oh Lord RanganAthA's MaNI PaadhukE ! In the middle of Your body, 
You ha bright and pure gold and pearls ( MadhyE parisphurita nirmala
chandra tArA ). At the edges, You have many kinds of colored gems
( prAnthEshu rathnanikarENa vichithra-varNA ). You bring under Your
control the eyes of those , who worship You and makes one wonder 
whether Your many beautiful roopams are like a Yanthram designed
to enchant the worshippers (Chakshur-vaseekaraNa visEsha yanthram )
and hold them under Your control ..(V.S).
