Various upayas to attain the ultimate result has been specified in the sastras.

Bhakthi is holding on to karma, jnana yogas as parts of bhakthi to attain the

ultimate result and also holding on to emperuman as the means to give the end

result (upAyAntharam).

 

Leaving all other means (upayas) and also not believing in prapaththi being the

means (svagathasveekaram-jeevatma holding on to the divine feet of emperuman).

He alone is the means and the ultimate result (upayam and upEyam).

Dear SrIvaishNavAs,

 

This is a great attempt by Smt. Sumithra Varadarajan to bring out the tamizh

fonts (as unicode) along with the English write-up. Although XP decodes it

readily, some of you may need to install ekalappai (unicode) or under "view"

-> "Encoding" -> select "Unicode (UTF-8) to view the tamizh fonts.

 

aDiyEn requets, Smt. Sumithra to add the transliterated (English) version

also, as it will help the Srivaishnavas, who are not able to view or read

tamizh fonts.

 

Thanks a lot.
