Guest guest Posted October 2, 1995 Report Share Posted October 2, 1995 Questioning our aachaaryaas: As Krishna pointed out, as sri vasihnavaas we must follow certain protocol while seeking clarifications from our aachaaryaas. To my knowledge blind faith is not advocated across the board for everyone. Some great souls have opted for just that. E.g. dhEvu maRRariyEn of madhurakavi aazhvaar. Others have not hesitated to question when appropriate. Kooraththaazhvaar's devotion to sri raamaaanuja is unquestonable, yet yet he refused to write on when some of Sri Raamaanujaa's commentary was not to his liking! Ramanuja himself refused to accept Yadavaprakasar's teachings. Quarrel with saivites: The post I made was not intended for initiating a quarrel. (I know Mani is not saying I did, this is just to make sure there are no misunderstandings) If that was my intention I would have posted it in a different forum. I shared the question that bothered me and the answer I found in sri azhagiya singar's writings. Sri azhagiya singar himself was responding to somebody else's claims. Therefore, there is no quarrel with saivites. The point of my post was for sri vaishnavites to not get confused, like I did, with the term Isvara as used for Sivan; the point was not to quarrel with saivites. -- Dileepan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
