Lokacharya. tvayi kR^itavataraNe - After you were born kshitau - in this world kalau - in the Kali yuga vitatya - and spread in a special way kalAm - the knowledge of the Sastras kshapita kalmaSha oghAm - which removes the collections of sins chaturtha puruShArthadAm api - and gives moksha which is the fourth purushartha, kR^ita yuga krama: - the way of the Kruta yuga puna: - was again shobate - established. bhuvi - In this world kopi nara: - a man narakavartama gAmI - going in the path to Naraka na dR^iShyate - is not seen (any more).
Vyakhyana Saram:
Desikan is saying that after the birth of Pillai Lokacharyar
in this world, he provided the inner knowledge of the sastras
- that is, the meanings of Rahasya Trayam, Tattva Trayam and
Artha Panchakam to everyone through his divine granthas and
because of this, everyone is now reaching His divine abode
and no one is going to Naraka. Therefore, even though this
is the Kali yuga, it appears as if Kruta yuga has returned.
Nammazhvar said: "kaliyum kedum kaNdu koNmin .. naliyum naragamum naindha namanukku ingku yAdhonRum illai" (Thiruvaymozhi 5-2-1). This was Azhvar foreseeing the arrival of Ramanuja (Bhavishyadacharya) and the fact that Kali yuga would lose its power due to that. Desikan is stating that after the arrival of Pillai Lokacharyar, Kali yuga was once again foiled.
Azhvar also said "thiriyum kali yugam nIngkith dhEvargaL thAmum pugundhu periya kidha yugam paRRip pErinba veLLam peruga" (Thiruvaymozhi 5-2-3). Desikan is saying the same about Pillai Lokacharyar - that after his presence in this world, it appears that Kali yuga has been replaced by Kruta yuga.
