Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 SrimathE NigamAnta MahA DesikAya namaha. Dear Bhagavatas, I am a Vadagalai Iyengar and I respect and love Swami Desikan very much. I consider my greatest bhagyam to be following Desika-sampradayam. The question I asked was just out of curiousness. I am very a lowly soul. I did not have any intention of starting a debate when I posed the question ( I have no capabilities whatsoever). It was just pure curiosity. As Sri Sampath has rightly pointed out, if this is leading or suggesting the younger generation to a deviated path, we must immediately stop discussion on this. We have hundreds of SrisUktis of Swami Desikan which we can enjoy through postings of learned bhagavatas on the list. I apologise and offer my dandavat pranamams at the feet of all bhagavatas if i have offended anyone with my question. With this, let us end this topic here and move on to other useful discussions. (BTW, I am very much convinced by Sri Sampath's reply regarding Lord Ranganatha's grace on Swwami Desikan :-)) KavitArkika simhAya kalyANa guNaSAlinE SrimathE vEnkaTeSAya VEdAnta guravE namah Swami Desikan Tiruvadigale Saranam, daasan, Srikanth --- Sampath G <sampath_govindachari wrote: > Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha > > Dear Bhagavathas, > On reading your query and the subsequent thoughts > that flowed out of it, It is my humble suggestion > to all concerned , that it would be better for > people like us to refrain from debating on questions > like this under reference. > It would be like pondering over the birth star of > Hiranyakasipu and the likes, instead of finding out > why the Lord took that Narasimha form to remove > Hiranyakasipu from this world and the lesson > conveyed to us through that Avatar. > We have read in Mahabharat, the Lord breaking HIS > own pledge by taking the Chakram in His hands, just > to oblige the desire of his ardent devotee Bheeshma > Pithama.
