Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 sri: srimathE rAmAnujaya nama: Dear Devotee: Please accept our Humble Pranam. Swami Ramanuja the "only" unique acharya. - Part 5 of 10 (contd) ============================================================== Here was the answer given by Sri U.Ve Velukkudi Krishnan Swami in the year 2001, Sept 15th, Saturday at 10 am. ============================================================== Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama: Respected Bhagavatottamas Ans 4. a.. Ramanuja is the only one to whom the revered title "Swamy" is apt. We do call many other acharyas also with this title. But see this - All temples are koils but just the word "koil" will stand for Sri Rangam only. All birthdays of perumal are jayantis but "jayanti" would stand only for Sri Krishna Jayanti. All jeers are jeers but just "jeer" or "Peria jeer" is only for Manavala Mamungal. (At the beginning and end of every santhai session, we all chant "Alwar Emperumanar "jeer" tiruvadigale saranam"). Similarly, just "Swamy" stands for Ramanuja alone. For others we must add their name also to identify them. ====================================================== End of Sri U.Ve. Velukkudi Krishnan Swami's message. ====================================================== ==================Continued on part 2 ================== Sri Ramanuja's original temple with the Vigraham from ~3200 BCE (first received by MadhurakaviAzhvar) is in need of your support. http://www.vedics.net/appeals/azhvartn/ =================================================== ------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
