धर्माद्यॊजनि धर्मः ऎव स रतिं दद्यात् स्वयॊश्रियं यॊगाभ्यासरतः स्मरादिविजयं कन्दर्पदर्पापहः।

SUMMARY:  May DharmaprajEShwara, from whom Sri Narayana has originated, give us spirituous mind; may that Sri Narayana, who is engaged in meditation and penance and is performing Yoga, bestow upon us the quality or the wealth of doing continuous penance or meditation; may this Lord, who crinkled the pride of Manmatha, empower us to win over the six enemies of Lust (Kama), Anger (Krodha), Arrogance or ego or pride (Mada), Jealousy (Matsara), Greed (Lobha) and Attachment or fascination (Moha); may the Lord, who resides at a great height, grant us a higher plane of Moksha or salvation; may he, who is the originator (creator) of Urvashi, instill our minds with a feeling to treat all women as our foster daughters; and may Lord Narayana, who is the embodiment of all virtues and attributes, provide us with similar knowledge and joy and other traits.

In this stanza, Sri Vadirajaru is requesting the Lord to provide the mankind with all good qualities, desire to do meditation, perform penance and to enjoy spiritual life

Earlier, when Narayana, son of Dharmaja, was doing penance, Indra tried to spoil the penance by sending a few female Apsaras, along with Manmatha, the Lord of Romance or Love. At that time, Indra was not aware of the purpose for which Narayana was doing penance. That is why, he tried to disturb the penance of Narayana. However, Sri Narayana created several women, who were more beautiful and charming than the Apsaras. Unaware of what happened to other women, Indra came to check whether the women sent by him had succeeded in dislodging the penance of Sri Narayana. To make Indra realize his folly, Sri Narayana created from his beautiful “Ooru”, the thighs, a charming beauty called Urvashi, where Uru means thigh. Urvashi was so beautiful that the Apsaras sent by Indra were ashamed of their acclaimed beauty.

Sri Vadirajaru is asking Narayana to relieve him from lust and other negative qualities because Sri Narayana is the creator of this universe. Sri Vadirajaru is appealing to Sri Narayana to make his (Vadiraja’s mind and symbolically, human mind) mind think that even most beautiful and charming women like Apsaras were his daughters. From individual, Sri Vadirajaru has sought the evolvement of universality.

SUMMARY: “I meditate the name of Sri Badareenarayana, who is holding the Holy Disc in his top right hand, the Sacred Conch in the top left hand; who is in the posture of Padmasana with his upward-facing feet sparkling with divine radiation between the charming, round shaped and red thighs. He is the Omnipotent and is surrounded by groups of deities, Narada and other Yogis. He possess that venom which is made up of the silt of sins he has cleansed whenever the devotees appeal to him to do so. I meditate Sri Badareenarayana.”

In this stanza, Sri Vadirajaru has elaborately described the idol of Sri Badareenarayana, who is surrounded byNarada, Garuda, Uddhava, Kubera, Ganesha, Lakshmi, NaranArAyaNa, Sreedevi and BhUdEvi.
