Lord SrI MalOlan

Srimadh Azhagiya Singhar, the revered PeetAdhipathi of AhObila Matam is saluted as the MalOla PaddhukA dhivya Sevakar or the One who performs AarAdhanam for the sacred Paadhukais of Sri Lakshmi Narasimhan.

(meaning): adiyEn takes refuge at the divine PaadhukAs of MaalOlan of AhObilam . They are worshipped by great Yogis adorning the throne of AhObila Matam for more than six centuries. They bless one with all one wants in this and the other world. They are special and celebrated. They are worshipped by all the DevAs and are lofty regarding their Vaibhavam. They are the twin wives of the Lord and help Him perform His dharmam of Saadhu Jana rakshaNam and Dhushta Nigraham. They have the fragrance of Swamy NammAzhwAr's VaguLa pushpa garland and have unrestricted sanchAram with their Lord in all the three worlds. They are eulogized by the assembly of VedAs and are enchantingly beautiful during each moment of sanchAram. They are blemishless, eternal and very sacred.It is rich with auspicous attributes and have indescribable Vaibhavam. They are the targets of the KaruNA KatAksham of MahA Lakshmi and BhUmi Piraatti always. They have the fragrance of the VedAs and the radiance of newly melted gold.

Some of the salutations of Swamy Desikan about the Sri RanganAtha Paadhukais have been woven into the text of the Krithi for auspiciousness to those who set this krithi to Music with taaLam and those who listen to this krithi offered with humility at the sacred feet of MaalOlan.
