SUMMARY: Along with elderly saints, Sri Madhwacharyaru swiftly walked across a long distance, approached Padmatirtha, who had camped in a village called Yekavata, frightened him with his words, stopped him from escaping, defeated him in the argument and emerged victorious. When he (Padmatirtha) wrongly said “Lord Almighty, who is within us, is aware of all this”, everyone jeered at him.

There are a few words with two meanings in this stanza. SAryaha means Arjuna with his elder brother as well as with elderly saints; GOgaNaihi means cluster of speakers (vAggaNa) and cluster of arrows; samyamya means stopping him and arresting him. AntaryAntrukAmEna means both with the grace of Lord Hari within and Manmatha, the motivator inside the mind; similarly, ‘sri’ means Jayasri or goddess of victory as well as Draupadi.

SUMMARY: Just as a Lion does not pardon a pig that causes the death of its cub, Sri Madhwaru, an incarnation of Lord Vayu, decided to punish Padmatirtha for stealing his Madhwacharya’s) holy books from his (Madhwa’s) kindly and lonely  Shankara Pandit; Sri Madhwar had no intention of pardoning him (Padmatirtha) for stealing the books.

SauKhyadAKhyam means Shankara Pandita, who had been appointed to protect books witten by Sri Madhwaru. “DuShTAtmAsau BhadramEkAkinam” can be interpreted as “DuShTAtmA asau Bhadram yEkAkinam” referring to Shankara Pandit and also as “DuShTAtmA SauBhadram yEkAkinam” referring to ABhimanyu.

It is said that Shankara Pandit had been assigned with the task of protecting the Holy Texts of Sri Madhwacharyaru. When Shankara Pandit was alone, Padmatirtha stole away the books, deceitfully.
