Guest guest Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 Sri: Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama: Bhattar asked his disciple Devappillai to go to another place for helping Srivaishnavas there. Unable to bear separation from his acharya, Devappillai stood hesitating. Bhattar told him "Even if you are leaving me, you are going for the benefit of others in this world. Therefore, do not hesitate". This event is also described at another place as follows: Devappillai cried out saying "To see who else am I going there, when you are my true relative?" Bhattar replied "For Sri Rama, who took even the smallest of beings along with Him to Srivaikuntam, it was not difficult to take His children as well. Yet, He left them behind, for the protection of this world. There are no such people to do service where you are going. Therefore, go there without worrying."
