Guest guest Posted February 6, 2001 Report Share Posted February 6, 2001 Dear Sri. Balaji: Many thanks for commencing this wonderful series which cuts right to the heart of post-rAmAnuja Srivaishnavism. Just like swAmi geethAchAryan's upadesam in mahAbhArata is of utmost importance among all the itihAsas, so are the magnificient contributions of poorvAchAryALs like Sri. vAtsya varadaguru, Sri. sudarsana soori, Sri. Pillai LokAchArya and swAmi Sri. Desikan brought to light through this chaotic period of war and invasion. adiyEn takes the liberty of comparing the epic story of Sri. satyakAlam in Srivaishnavism with the bhagawad geethai of Srimad mahAbhArata. Bhaktas may kindly overlook any errors in my emotional reaction. I keenly await reading the remaining two parts of this series. thooppul thiruvEnkatam udayAn thiruvadigaLE SaraNam Thanks and regards, -Srinath C.
