Shri Kumara Varadarya was Swami Desika’s son. He learnt all the meanings under Swami’s thiruvadi and was Swami’s ardent disciple. At the peak of his Bhakti, Shri Kumara Varadarya has shared all the greatness of Swami as experienced by him. This great work is in Tamil and is called Pillai Andhadhi.
Pasuram – 20
MEANING:
This is the Phala Sruthi Paasuram. Here KumAra VaradAchAr, the key sishyaa and son of Swamy Desikan states that the glories of his AchAryan are limitless to cover. He instructs us that those who recite this AndhAthi with 20 paasurams rooted in Saasthrams will be truly blessed. The author points out those who recite this andhAthi with devotion and firmness of mind will be marked by Mahaa Bhaagya VisEsham. They will have the Mahaa BhAgyam of Swamy Desikan’s Sacred feet adorning their heads (“mudiyidai nEr padum ThUppul ammAn Padha maamalarE”). There is no other PurushArtham better than that visEsha bhAgyam.
