Guest guest Posted July 3, 2002 Report Share Posted July 3, 2002 Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha Srimath Varavara Munye Namaha Pranam to all bhagavadas, Adiyen is enjoying nowadays Sri. Parthasarathy Ayyangar's Articles very much. Like him so many elders in our sampradhayam to lead the youngsters like us in correct path. Adiyen is staying in Bahrain and conducting Thiruvathirai and Thirumoolam Thirunatchathiram monthly with acharayan grace and we are reciting Iramanuja Nootranthadhi and Upadesaratnamalai. Adiyen has faced a lot of resistance initially to conduct Thiruvathirai thiunatchathiram here because most of bhagavadas from vadakalai.This is the situation now throughout the world among srivaishnavas. We are really struggling to project Swamy emperumannar as real Jagathacharayan and he is above all acharayan. In Bahrain most of srivaishnavas has felt Swamy belong to thenacharaya sampradhayam and Swamy Desigan belong to Vadakalai Sampradhayam. The main difference between vadakalai and thenkalai now, VK are accepting only Swamy Desigan as acharayan and even considering swamy desigan is above Swamy Emperumannar.But still TK are accepting Udiyavar as Jagathacharayan,principle acharayan and we are ready to accept all achrayan including Swamy Desigan. Swamy Desigan only accepted Swamy as " Nayaka sri" in his Yathiraja sapthadhi.(SWamy is the middle stone in our guruparampara garland). Adiyen don't know about VK sampradhayam. But in Thenkalai we are strongly believing moksha praptham through Swamy Emperumannar.Swamy is considered as " Vishnuloka manimandapa margathayi" .If you are surrendering yourself completely to SWamy, he will take care of everything.On behalf of all jeevathma Swamy asked moksha praptham to Ranganatchiyar sametha Ranganathar. As per MM in Arthiprabhantham 14 pasuram " Athikaram undal Arangar irangaarO?,Athikaram illatharkanrO- yathiraja Neeiranaga vaenduvathu"......... In 41, Enipol PiLai seyvaar ivulagilundOe? unipol porukkavallar undoe? In 60, Swamy MM explained that he wants to do all kainkarayam through Swamy only. Aarthiprabhandham is so beautiful and Swamy MM shows to us that do prapatti and Kainkaryam at lotus feet of Swamy Emperumannar and he will take care of. Sri.Thiruvaragathamuthanar also explained so many things in Iramanuja nootranthadhi. "Karae Karunai Iramanuja" ............. Adiyen is feeling that all srivaishnavas to work very hard to spread " Iramanuja Sampradhayam", " Alwars Arulicheyals", Iramanuja philosphy and Iramanuja name to throughout the world without any kalai differences and other differences. Alwar Emperumannar Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Saranam. Adiyen Mahara Sadagapa Ramanuja Dasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 5, 2002 Report Share Posted July 5, 2002 SRIMATHE RAMANUJAYA NAMAHA; APPAN THIRUVADIGALE SARANAM Sri. Magara Sadagopanukku Aneka AAseervathangal. Adiyen has delayed in sending a reply to your earlier letteras adiyen was otherwise engaged. Kindly bear up with me. Glad to know that you are conducting Emperumanar's Thirunakshatram.Keep it up. Those who are willing to join you, are fortunate; others are loosers. Adiyen hopes that you know Guruparampari. Any way, for the sake of continuity of this posting Adiyen am giving a brief history. Vaishanva culture is very old one. It took its present shape of Srivaishanvism from the period of Sriman Nathamunigal. He was attracted towards Azhwar's Pasurangals which was dormant at that time. He collected all. the Acharya Paramparai (virtualy) starts from him.He, by his yogic powers foresaw the Avathar of Sri. Ramanuja . He made an image (Vighraha )of Sri. Ramanuja (Bavishyathacharya Vighraham, now ,present in Azhvar thirunagari) and made arrangement for the propagation of the Srivaishnavism. HIs grand son Sri. Alavandar carried out his wish by selecting Sri. Ramanuja as his successor.Till then, the propagation was limited, But, Sri. Ramanuja changed this procedure and taught for all those who were desireous of hearing him. During Ramanuja's period SV flourished. He made arrangements for future propagation in a larger scale through 74 Simhasanathipathis. He appointed Sri. Parasra Battar as his successor. The Guruparampara flows from him to Nanjeeyar, Nampillai, Vadakku Thiruveedhi pillai and Pillai Lokachariar. Upto this period there was no difficulty or effective opposition.But, it appears that there was some kind of resentment for the prominance given to Arulicheyal, in the last days of Sri. Pillai Lokacharyar. ( This is evident from informations avilable in Sri Vachana Bhooshanam, Acharya Hrudhayam and Upadesaratnamalai). Unfortunately, in the begining of the 14th Century there was Islamic invasions of Srirangam twice and Namperumal was taken away from Srirangam by Sri. Pillai lokacharyar. HIs contemporary, Swami Vedantha Desikan, falling in the Sri Bhashya Paramparai left for Satyamangalam , near Erode. Namperumal returned in 1371 only. During the interim period, the activities in srirangam were not healthy to Srivaishnavism. Sri. Pillai Lokachariar attained paramapadam during this period. Accodring to informations available in Parakala matam, Vadkalai sect was intiated by Brhma thantra Swatantra Jeeyar, under the guidance of Vedantha Desika in 1360.But, the direct line of Achryas following Sri. Ramanuja, is Thiruvaimozhi pillai,( after Pillai Lokacharyar) and Sri. Manavala mamunigal.Sri. MMM L preached EEdu Kalashepam for one year 1430/31 and Namperumal graced the occassion daily, forsaking his all his utsavams during this period. Sri. Vedhantha Desikan is a versatile scholar and does not belong to the direct line of Acharyas following Sri. Parasara Bhattar. He belongs to a period 250 years hence, after the demise of Sri. Ramanuja.Sri.Vaishnavism is known as Emperumar Dharsanam or other wise Sri Ramanuja siddhantham. Sri. Vedantha Desikan follwed this Siddhathan only and did not make any other Siddhantham of his own. There was differences of opinions among scholars ( which is acommon one ) over matters not affecting Siddhantham. Till 19th Century, this differences did not matter much. But, during the begining of 19th Century attempts were made to disrupt the control of religious practices followed in Srirangam Temple. But, the claims were set aside and the existing practice continues till date. In the later half of 19th century onwards attempts were made for the control of Temples. This disputes damaged the image of Srivaishanavism. From the above brief history you can see if the Great Ramanuja is not respected by some, What can be said of them ? Sri. Ramanuja was respected by Sri. Vedantha Desika.He has composed Yathiraja sapthadhi praising Sri. Ramanuja. Who revers Desika wants to disown Sri,Ramanuja, What a pity ? what a lot of unfortunate misguided poor ones ? We may pray that Emperumanar may shower his grace on them to follow the correct path. Your wish that all should spread Emperumanar Dharsanam. O.K. WElcome. How ? Acquire correct and authentic knowledge. Avoid Rumors and Gossips. Perhaps you may have heard of Sri. Puttur Swamy (Sri Vaishanava Sudarsanar, Puttur Agraharam, Woriyur Tiruchiraplli. He has published many publications. You can avail them. Enrich your knowledge and impart them to those who are interested. (You is plural here.) Both Kalais jointly ?. Adiyen is not against it. But, doubt is there, as to how far it will work. When you ( plural ) decide to do it, do DO NOT WORRY ABOUT OPPOSITION.GET INTO ACTION. YOU DEFINITELY WILL SUCCEED WITH BEST WISHES, Adiyen Ramanuja dasan T.parthasarathy On Thu, 04 Jul 2002 Maharabooshanam Sadagopan wrote : >Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha >Srimath Varavara Munye Namaha > > >Pranam to all bhagavadas, > >Adiyen is enjoying nowadays Sri.
