You arose (were born) in the house which was an ocean of scholarship. You appeared from the one who was the teacher of all those who were brahmins.
You stamped your opponents with the thunderbolt (like arguments). You destroy the heat of
obstacles that your dear ones face.
Your heart always has the fixed smile of the auspicious LORD KRISHNA.
O SrimadAchArya! One who is like the moon (one who stands out) amongst munis! Please remove
me out of this slush called samsAra.
