Does the CD-ROM say that Ramanuja writes about prapatti

in the Gitabhashya? In fact, Ramanuja nowhere discusses

prapatti as distinct from bhakti-yoga in the Gitabhashya,

not even in his comments on the carama sloka (18.66),

despite offering two separate ways of understanding this

verse.

Dear Sri Mani Varadarajan :

 

No, the CD ROM section on Bahgavadh Gita

does not refer directly to Prapatthi as distinct

from Bhakthi Yoga.

 

This is a age old controversy (i-e)

whether AchArya RaamAnujA did refer to

Prapatthi anywhere in his direct works as

opposed to Bhakthi Yogam .

 

I will address the subject ot the best of my

ability and request others to join in .
