Vyakhyana Saram:
It was said by Swami Desikan in the previous shloka that seeking the divine feet of Pillai Lokacharyar would remove all sins and ignorance in the minds of people. In this shloka, he adds that not only will his divine feet remove sins (pApa prakruti sambandha nivrutti), it will also add great auspiciousness and divine knowledge to the people who are the target of his grace. As these grow, the supreme wealth that is moksha will automatically attain them.
