Guest guest Posted November 28, 2001 Report Share Posted November 28, 2001 Jai Sriman Narayana: adiye:n has two questions as follows for which I request Sri HH Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji to kindly clarify: 1. Why did Sri Ramanuja say that each Sri Vaishnavite should stay for some time in Melkote (Thiruna:ra:yanapuram)? Is that place holier than Sri Rangam, Tirupathi & other Divya De:sams? 2. What is the significance of A:ditya Hrudayam Stotram? Can a Sri Vaishnavite recite the same?

Why did Sri Ramanuja say that each Sri Vaishnavite should stay forsome time in Melkote (Thiruna:ra:yanapuram)? Is that place holier than Sri Rangam,Tirupathi & other Divya De:sams? Priya Sriman Aravind! Jai Srimanarayana! Melkote is Melkote only. You need not compare that place with any other Divya Kshethram. For the comparision always has a particular para-meter like great in what, when and so on. Each place has one greatness of it's own which other places may not having. Melkote, now, is a place, where That Acharya Ramanuja adopted a few revolutionary changes in Vedic Sampradayam, by accepting HARIJAN & MUSLIMS also as Srivaishnavas, for the first time in the recent history. It was in Sastras of course, but was in dark. It is thus called "jnana mandapam". Of course, he started propagating his Sribhashyam, a commentary on Brahmasutras, also from that place so that name. These are the few reasons he liked that place should be visited by a seeker to get the real Vedic inspiration. 2. What is the significance of A:ditya Hrudayam Stotram? Can a SriVaishnavite recite the same? Aditya Hrudayam, reveals the greatness of the Sun, as the divine abode of Lord Srimannarayana. All truth lovers can chant that.
