SUMMARY: Sri Poornaprajnaru, who was like Aditya, was appearing more radiant with the twelve symbols such as the Disc and Conch called Oordhwapundra, was an uncontrollable terror to antagonists of Lord Hari, shone like another apocalypse or Armageddon or the Great Deluge.

It is customary to wear twelve symbols with Gopi Chandan on the body, immediately after having bath. Gopi Chandan is said to be a kind of soil dust on which the Gopikas, the female devotees of Lord Krishna, danced to please him. Sri Madhwaru was wearing those twelve Oordhwapundras and each of them shone like separate Aditya. Together, they appeared like Dwadasha Adityas.

According to Smrutis, during the Great Deluge, all the twelve Suns rise together; since it is a part of the final destruction, the period would be very unpleasant for Tamoyogyas or those with Tamas Gunas.

Scriptures state that wearing Oordhwapundra provides radiation that is reminiscent of the Sun. They create fear in the heart of enemies.

SUMMARY: The people who had gathered there and saw the naturally charming, stately stature of Sri Poornaprajnaru, and his face that was like Full Moon, used to lift their two hands in salutation posture and hurriedly disperse to sideways as soon as he walked out, much before his disciples could announce aloud “leave way”, “leave the path”.

The people respected Sri Madhwacharyaru so much that there was no need for anyone to tell them to walk sideways and make way for him to walk through. It was a voluntary reverence that the stature of Sri Madhwaru was commanding.

SUMMARY: With the group of people collecting and spraying all the water that had fallen on the Earth after washing the lotus feet of Sri Madhwacharyaru, Goddess Earth was slightly dissatisfied but somehow tolerated it. Otherwise, how would she be considered or called synonymous of “Pardoning” (KShamA dharitree)?

It is indicated in this stanza that people were not leaving even a drop of water on the earth after washing the feet of Sri Madhwaru. They used to wear it on their head. Goddess Earth was upset with the fact that not a drop was left for her to wear. However, she tolerated it after seeing the reverence, devotion and compassion people had for Sri Madhwaru.

Goddess Earth is known as “Kshama” because she pardons people who do all sorts of unpleasant things on her and throw waste on her. If she were not so tolerant, then the wrath she could show would be highly destructive to people.
