Dear SrEvaishNavites,

 

How should one consder samsAsri-s?

 

This is also addressed aptly by SwAmy PiLLai LOkAchArAr.

 

SamsAri-s: SamsAri-s are hindrances to bhagavath anubhavam and bhagavath kainkaryam. How?

 

Since, they are full of ahankAram and mama-kAram they are submerged in the

materialistic pursuit and happiness. Therefore, they do not realize the

supremacy of the Almighty resulting in the similar attitude to those who are

with them. Therefore, this field effect should be feared as this will directly

lead to obstacle for bhagavath anubhavam (as against materialistic pursuits)

and bhagavath kainkaryam ( as against materialistic addiction)

 

Sri Nam AzhwAr clearly mentions this aspect also

 

‘nATTArOdu iyalvozhindhu nAraNanai nanninamEa” 10-6-2 of ThiruvAiMozhi.
