Sribhashyasangraha. Sri Arulala Perumal Emperumanar gave two great works the

Jnanasaaram and the Prameyasaaram. There may be many Srisookhthis which adiyen

could have missed due to my lack of knowledge and ignorance. This was just an

attempt to recollect the great works of our acharyas though adiyen is not

capable of giving the essence of them. All my errors may be pardoned and

corrected by the learned scholars.Alwar Emperumanar Jeeyer Thiruvadigale
