Guest guest Posted July 2, 2002 Report Share Posted July 2, 2002 Sri: Srimathe Ramanujaya nama: Dear devotees, I missed something important in my previous post. I don't want people to mistake my post. Whatever I wrote was based on my almost "zero" understanding of our ThenAchArya sampradAyam. I intentionally excluded SribhASyam in my post because I have absolutely no idea whether EmperumAnAr had treated the topic of "swargam/narakam" in SribhASyam. With this I will add couple of points wrt "nirhEtuka krpa" and the "state of prapannAs". 1. It's HE who chooses us. Once HE chooses us all our karmas die. We are assured of liberation from samsArA. It's HE who chose arjuna and not the other way round. According to us,there were more qualified people than arjuna but still perumAL chose only arjunA. 2. I was told that although EmperumAnAr didn't explicitly used "prapatti" in SribhASyam,it's only with NammAzhwAr's Tiruvoimozhi and prapatti as the "base" he wrote sribhASyam. EmperumAnAr practised and preached "prapatti" only throughout his life. Moreover for prapannAs there is no swargam/narakam. There is only mOksham/liberation. 3. Once we hold onto the feet of Sri EmperumAnAr,we jIvAtmAs need not worry about our punarjanmam,swargam/narakam,pApam/puNyam. That's the guarantee/assurance given to EmperumAnAr by SriRanganAthA(as per EmperumAnAr's wish to liberate the jIvAtmAs). EmperumAnAr's "Tiru uLLam" is infinite and one can't describe it in words! Please pardon me for any misconceptions in the post. AzhwAr EmperumAnAr Jeeyar TiruvadigaLE saraNam nappinnai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
