dear kalaivani,

It is said that after prapatti we are not supposed

tosurrender to any other devatha.We can respect them

but we should not surrender to them. u can bow to a

devatha thinking that he is part of paramatma no

problem but not as a devatha himself.That is how

vaishanavits even do surya namaskara and other rituals

when they pay homage to sun and other devathas they do

it considering sriman narayanan to recide in them.

Our acharyas explain this in a different manner

also.On doing prapatti the jivan becomes the consort

or the pathni of the lord who is the purushotaman.

A wife after entering her in laws place can respect

her fatherinlaw and motherinlaw and also her

brotherinlaw but can she show the same love she has

for her husband to the others similarly a prapannan

can show love to only to the purushotaman she can show

only her respect to others. what ever is the problem

the wife confides only in her husband and will not

fall in the feet of a third person similarly prapanals

will confide only in sriman narayanan and will not

enter any other devatha temple seeking any sort of

help.

Hope ur doubt is clarified
