mahA periyava elucidates on appar's maasil veenaiyum on how the feet of easan brings in happiness to all five senses at the same time, though appar was in a lime-cave. (He goes on to link it with panchobachaara puja). dAridra dukha dahana stotram says pretty much the same thing. Submit to the feet of Shiva to alleviate the suffering from all deprivations.
Bhakti or devotion means one rests it all on the ‘Will’ and not ask for ‘oneself’. It is ability we develop to watch with detachment our own thoughts and actions as that of others. In this way we become the ‘medium’ of Shiva, the ultimate consciousness, which burns all the pains due to deprivations we face in our life.
dAridra dukha dahana stotram says submission to Shiva (the ultimate consciousness) burns pain/dukha caused by ashta (eight) daridras. The ashta daridras are
Deprived of Learning/Knowledge
Deprived of self-control/rulership
Deprived of progeny
Deprived of courage
Deprived of wealth
Deprived of food/annam
Deprived of accomplishments
Deprived of consciousness/life
