वाचकेभ्यो भूयांसि नमांसि। अस्मिन् लेखे विद्वद्भिः मन्नार्कुडिराजगोपालाचार्यैः लिखितानि पद्यानि आचार्यपादुकाविषये सताभिषेकमहोत्सवे अवलोकयाम। इमानि पद्यानि आचार्यपादुकास्तुतिः।

विहरणसमयेषु प्रत्यहं योगिनेतुः चरणनलिनलग्ना पादुका धन्यजन्मा। परिणमयति नादं बोधयन्ती प्रियाणां परिचितनिगमान्तं पारमार्थ्यं यथावत्।। ~ मालिनी

आचार्यपादुकास्तुतिः कृतात्र – योगिनेतुः (आचार्याणां) विहरणसमयेषु (सञ्चारसमयेषु) प्रत्यहं तेषां पादकमले लग्ना पादुका धन्यजन्मा प्रियाणां उपनिषत्सु विद्यमानं पारमार्थ्यं यथावद् बोधयन्ती नादं परिणमयति।

[Blessed is the pādukā attached to the lotus feet of Narayana Yati; in his daily movements it becomes sacred sound, and through that sound instructs beloved disciples in the highest Vedāntic truth exactly as it is.]

प्राणित्राणप्रवणहृदयो ह्यर्थकामेष्वसक्तो हित्वा भोगान् सह परिजनैर् बन्धुवर्गं समग्रम्। यस्तु श्रीमान् यतिपतिरभूत् वीतरागः पृथिव्यां तेनाप्येवं मुदितमनसा पादुका धार्यतेऽसौ।। ~ मन्दाक्रान्ता

अर्थः -> प्राणिनां त्राणे प्रवणहृदयः अर्थकामेषु असक्तःपरिजनैः सह बन्धुवर्गं समग्रं भोगान् च हित्वा यः श्रीमान् यतिपतिः वीतरागः पृथिव्याम् अभूत्, तेन अपि एवं मदितमनसा असौ पादुका धार्यते।

[That illustrious lord of ascetics on earth, whose heart was devoted to protecting all beings, who was unattached to wealth and pleasures, and who abandoned enjoyments together with his entire circle of relatives, becoming free from worldly attachment—even by such a one, this pādukā is joyfully borne with a delighted heart.]

नारायणयतीशानचरणत्राणयोर्युगम्। अस्मत्कुलधनं भोग्यमस्तु मे मूर्ध्नि सर्वदा।। ~ अनुष्टुप

Wow- what an Acarya bhakti! I will go with English explanation so that everyone can enjoy the meaning – “May the pair of sandals protecting the feet of revered Nārāyaṇa Yatīśāna — the treasure of our lineage — ever rest upon my head as my cherished blessing.” and that makkale is my and M’s cherished blessing!

श्रीनारायणयोगीन्द्रचरणत्राणवैभवम्। राजगोपालनाम्नेत्थं तयोर् दासेन वर्णितम्।।

Wow—what extraordinary humility and what a brilliantly novel idea: to compose verses on the Ācārya’s pādukā. This is Ācārya bhakti at its highest. Of course, this is about Villivalam HH—could we expect anything less? Villivalam HH inspires and draws out this bhakti from everyone.ம்

தேவு மற்றறியேன் நாராயண யதி! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[By the divine anugraham of Villivalam Srimad Azhagiyasingar, and as part of SAM USA’s Śatamāna Celebrations, śiṣyas had the blessed opportunity to recite the entire Nālāyira Divya Prabandham. It was our great fortune and honor to recite Thiruvaimozhi on August 10 (1-ம் பத்து), 17(5-ம் பத்து), 18(6-ம் பத்து) – 2026. Of course, we started with Kesavarya Kripapatram and Thirupallandu, but those are not part of this recording.]
