Emberumanar Sannidhi in Thirumalai - Was: terror in thirumala

[Guest guest]

Sri:

Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

 

As Sri T.A. Varadhan pointed out, the sannidhi was

established for his acharyan Swami Ramanujar by

his close disciple Anandazhvan. This is recorded in

many places.

 

It is not only in Thirumalai, that Ramanuja has the

acharya mudra, as opposed to the anjali mudra. In all

places where this occurs, there is clear local

history to explain why this is the case. The reason

for Thirumalai has been explained by Sri Vedaraman

Sriraman.

 

Since a reference to Manavala Mamunikal was made in

this thread, please note that Mamunikal has the

acharya mudra in Srirangam.

 

Also note carefully the left hand of Ramanuja at

Thirumalai. He does not hold suvadis in his left

hand with fingers pointing forward, which is the

mark of Desikar. This fact was supposed to have

been pointed out by the Periya Jeeyar at

Thirumalai, Saadhu Ramanujachariar, when the same

question was raised in his time. He is said to

have remarked, whether the people who are

questioning have lost their eye sight.
