Difference between acArya abhimAnam and bhagavat abhimAnam

Dear bhAgavatAs,

Ten alwars took birth to sing in praise of Sriman nArAyana. Madhurakavi alwar

and Andal were for bhAgavata/acArya abhimAnam. Again, IrAmAnusa nUtrandAdi is

also on bhAgavata/acArya abhimAnam. You would note a difference between the

other prabandhams and the two on acArya namely kanninuN sirutAmbu and IrAmAnusa

nUtrandAdi.

 

When we surrender before bhagavAn, there is a doubt in our mind whether he would

accept us or not. However great he was bharata saraNAgati did not fructify.

However mean he was, guha saraNAgati was fruitful. We cannot decide whether

we would be treated as bharata or guha. It is totally dependant on HIS wish.

All the alwars who were longing for his communion lamented for years without

his darsan. So where are we before them ? This problem arises due to the

unquestionable

svAtantryam of bhagavAn.

 

Pillai lOkacArya in SV bhUshanam says , to overcome this one has to resort to

acArya abhimAnam. This assures us of the result.

 

Now the difference between saraNAgati and acArya abhimAnam is evident in the

divine songs of alwars. It is only the songs in kanninuN sirutAmbu and IrAmAnusa

nUtrandAdi which have a unique characteristic. All the songs in these two divya

prabandhams end with "E" which reveals a certainty. For instance in KNS tAmbu

nAvukkE, tirivanE, nanmaiyE, nambiyE,....kANminE. In I NUtrandAdi - nAmangalE,

pEriyalvE, iyalvutannE,....inpuraVe, angAlpaduttE, pUmannavE etc. Why is this

feature predominant in these two only. This also due to the meter they have

sung in. The letter "E" in tamil stands for certainty (avadhAraNam). The poets

of these two only are certain and confident of the results. Not the others.

This stands as a testimony of acArya abhimanams supremacy over saraNAgati.

 

 

There is one other feature. All the verbs used for anugraham or reaching alwar,

in KNStAmbu are in past tense. inbameidinEn,mEvinEn, pAthi arulinAn, nenjuL

niruttinAn. Other alwars mostly use future tense representing a request- arulAi,

kANa vArAi.. etc. They are yet to see the result.BhagavAn always keeps them

guessing. But for madhurakavi alwar,before he could request he got the result

without any waiting period.

Dear Swamin

Adiyen would like to Thank you very much for the effort you put to see that

the knowledge of Ramanuja Sampradayam is getting spread . We owe you a lot

for your service and would pray to His lotus feet to shower His blessings

upon you .

 

Dear Bhagavadas adiyen has an appeal to you, the underlying message Swamy

has narrated is only a tip of ice berg and Swamy has rendered more Artha

visheshams in his upanyasams of IrAmAnusa nUtrandAdi , hence would request

all Bhagavadas to login to the Vedic Bridge every Saturday at 6.30 pm PST

and get His blessings.

 

Swamin once again I would like to Thank you for all the efforts you are

putting for the Sampradayam and also join Smt Sheela in requesting to start

the SVBhushanam Upanyasams soon.

 

 

Best Regards

 

Gunaseelan Venkatachary
