Guest guest Posted October 2, 1996 Report Share Posted October 2, 1996 This thread is indeed interesting. I have a question. Sri ramanuja was sent back 18 times by thirukkOshtiyoor nambi before teaching him the charamaslOkaartham (?). This is supposedly because the teacher was testing the student's sincerity, and many other virtues, before teaching him the ultimate truth. But Sri Ramanuja just climbed atop the temple and told this to everyone. How does this fit into our discussions. The actual fact anyway is that raamaanusar told his teacher that if by telling this to everyone he gets cursed, then it is ok if all those others who listened to this attain mOksham. Though this is against the dharma the teacher felt so good about his student and called him "emperumaanaarE". This is when sri raamaanusar got this name emperumaanaar. Also regarding the Thirumazhisai aazhwaar incident i too have heard that the brahmans stopped on purpose on seeing the aazhwaar and missed the continuity from thereon which our aazhwaar picked up correctly. -Viji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
