Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's
Mumukshuppadi

Sutra:
159. pERRukkup palakAlum vENumenRu ninaikkil upAyam nazhuvum.

Meaning:
If it is thought that to achieve the goal seeked that this 
mantra has to be recited for a very long time, then this 
means will not work.

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
Therefore, this mantra should be repeated for the above said
reasons only. If, instead, it is recited thinking that long
recitation is required to reach the goal, then that 
siddhOpayam (the means also being the end) which does not 
tolerate any other means will slip away, just like the 
brahmAstra that had tied Sri Hanuman slipped away when a 
rope made of jute was also used to tie him.

Thus far the meanings of the first part of the Dvaya mantra
have been explained.
