"Karuna Rasa Poorna Sudhapthey" translates to "The Karuna Rasa, the Rasa of Compassion, is complete and pure." It's a musical composition by Jagadguru Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal. The Karuna Rasa is a sentiment or feeling of deep compassion and empathy for others, especially those in distress.

Karuna means "mercy," "compassion," or "pity"

Rasa refers to the aesthetic feeling or emotional flavor that a piece of art, music or literature evokes

Poorna means "complete," "full," or "perfect"

Sudhapthey this term is not a standard Sanskrit word, and it might be a slight variation of a colloquial term related to "Sudha" which means "nectar" or "immortal drink". The addition of "pthey" could indicate "essence" or "substance".

In essence, "Karuna Rasa Poorna Sudhapthey" emphasizes the profound, pure, and complete essence of the sentiment of compassion.
