Desikan - Thenkalai etc.

[Guest guest]

Without any offence to any one it must be understood thre was only one sampradaya that is Anadi.

During Sri Ramanuja's time it got codified as Ramanuja Sampradaya.

So during Sri Ramanuja's time there was only one Sapradaya called

Ramanuja Sampradaya.

Later after Desikan's time period, Desika Sampradaya

was started and they made SWAMI DESIKAN as its propounder.

I feel WE SHD leave this KALAI and Concentrate on WHAT our ACHARYAS

have stated &; Increase our GNanam &; put them to ANUSHTANAM as

Manavala MAMUNIGAL says &; do not WASTE our time other things.

Pardon me &; I am sure most members will agree with this

Let us get back to the anubhavams,

AANDAL THIRUVADIGALE SARANAM
