Vyakhyana Saram:
In this shloka, he performs mangalashasana to Senai Mudhaliyar. Vishvaksena carries a sceptre in his hand which represents that he has been given the responsibility to run this world by the Lord. Desikan is stating that the mere gentle movement of this stick is enough to chase away all the asuras and evil doers and make them run away; thereby removing the fear in the minds of Indra and the devas. He is the leader of all nityasuris in Paramapadham and his wife's name is Sutravati ("ondodiyAL sUthravathi uRai mArban vAzhiyE").
