established Munitraya Sampradayam. Lets recite this Mahaan's thanian:

 

GOpaala dEsika pathaabhja madhuvrathasya

Pragnyaa virakhthi karuNaa muKHa sath guNaabhDHe:

VEdaantha lakshmana munE sritha BHaagha DHEyam

Paadhaara vindha yugaLam sharanam prapadhyE

 

Meaning: I surrender at the lotus feet of Vedanta Lakshmana Muni who was like a

bee sucking the honey at the lotus feet of Gopala Desikar, who was endowed with

a sea of auspicious attributes, knowledge, detachement and compassion, who

showers beneficial qualities to those who take refuge at him.
