Kura-narayanar

[Guest guest]

sri:

 

Dear Bhaktas,

 

I came across Kuranarayanar's explanation of the upanishads while

reading "Ramanuja on The upanishads" by Prof.S.S.Raghavchar.

 

I would like to know more about kuranarayanar, his time and works

contributed to Sri Sampradayam.

 

adiyen,

Malolan

Dear Sri Sadagopan and Members of our group:

 

In reading over some of the emails that I missed

I came across this message. From what I recall

(I do not have my reference materials with me right

now) the kUra-nArAyaNa-jIyar who is the author of the

famed 'sudarSana-Satakam' lived in the period between

Sri Parasara Bhattar and Sri Vedanta Desika. This

places him in approximately the early part of the

13th century. kUra-nArAyaNa-jIyar played a major

role in Srirangam and was instrumental (if I recall

correctly)

[Guest guest]

Dear Sri. Mani, Sri.Sadagopan Swamy,

 

In fact i replied to Bhakthi list on this subject earlier. I think it was

missed.

As you said, Kura narayana Jeeyar, the author of Sudarsana Satakam, was a

contemprpry of Kurathalwan and was a disciple of Sri Parasara Bhattar.

 

Even today, when someone recites, Sudarsana Satakam, it is always

preceeded by tanian praising Sri Parasara Bhattar.

 

 

Regards

K.M.Narayanan
