Guest guest Posted April 4, 2003 Report Share Posted April 4, 2003 Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha Dear All, This question triggered my to get clarification on one more less popular but authentic historical event. I do not know how is this is correct, but I had been thinking that it is authentic. Learned scholars kindly clarify. I heard that though Swami Desikan was more on to the ShriVaishnavam on the Sanskrit Literary front in his initial stages, it seems, swami Periyavacchan Pillai gave him a orientation towards the greatness of Azhwars' prabandhams. He did that by taking up Amalanathipiran pasurams it seems. It goes as follows: The ten prabandhams of Amalanathipiran starts with the following words: Amalan Uvandha Mandhi CHAduram PAram THUunda KAI Pari Aalam Kondal If you see the first three pasurams, the first letters give you A U M which is the pranavam, fourth is CHA which means and in sanskrit. The next three give PA THU KAI - PATHUKAI which means the thiruvadi of the supreme lord Shriman Narayanan. A U M CHA PADHUKAI and I couldn't find out what came out of the last three. Does anyone have information on this? Kindly let me know. It seems, after aacchan pillai exposed the greatness of the azhwars prabandhams using this as the beginning lesson, swami Desikan got inclined more towards the Dravida Vedham and also composed a lot of tamizh literary works. I hope no one misinterprets this mail as the one that talks inferior about swami desikan or anything like that. I have no intent to attempt to or prove that any of our acharyas as inferior to anyone else. To me everyone is great and I see no discrimination amongst them and I request the readers of this mail to interpret this mail the same way.
