Guest guest Posted March 18, 2001 Report Share Posted March 18, 2001 SrI: SrImathE rAmAnujAya namaH SrImathE vEdAnta guravE namaH Dear SrI anantapadmanAbhan swAmi, Thanks for dEvarIr's clarification. although it might have been written for rasAnubhavam, aDiyEn must tell that, those very thought, instead of giving a rasA to him, jarred upon the feelings of him. aDiyEn feels that " comparing the smallest demi-god to be equal to the Supreme Lord " (the greatest demigod himself is infinitesimally smaller than the Supreme Who is infinite) would have inflicted a lesser pain to him than this comparison. " vundO ethirAsarukku oppu oruvar? vundO SrI bhAsyathukku oppu? perumpoothoorukku undO? ippAr thanilokkum oor? " Is there an equal to Sri rAmAnuja, who is the king of Yatis? Is there any comparison to " SrI " BAShyam? Is there a divya kshetra equal to " SrI " perumpoothoor? NO NO NO " lipse lakshmanayOgina: padayugam ratyA parAgacchatA- rakshArOpaNa danyasoori parishatsImanta sImAntikam | bhikshA paryatanakshaNeshu bibharAm chakrae galatkilbisha yadvinyAsamisheNa patra makarI mudrAm samudrAmbarA || " yatirAja Saptati (64) aDiyEn rAmAnuja dAsan, laksmikumAr. srimad azhagiya singar thiruvadigalE saranam! ------- > I happened to read from a book that " Adi Sankarar came > as Sri rAmAnujar again to this world " . > > Could learned bAgavAthAs clarify this please? Well, aDiyEn feels that it has been read by me also. Our PUrvAchAryas haven't d to that view and the current AchAryas also do not accept that view which aDiyEn got it clarified few months back. But, the author's intention is more in terms of puttingforth a rasAnubhavam, than to make a doctrine or fact out of it. The author's intent is that while SrI Adi Sa~nkarar incorporated ViSishTAdvaita in his vyavahArika-Satya {which can be found after deep scrutiny, as established by " PaNDitarAja " SrI DT TAtAchArya SwAmi in his ViSishTAdvaita Siddhi}, he couldn't make it as the ultimate siddhAnta due to lack of time. Hence it appears that he incarnated again as Bhagavad RAmAnuja {same thirunakshatram } to establish what was left unfulfilled earlier. The statement has to be taken in a lighter vain only and not as a fact. Ofcourse, its quite mis-leading for sure, to all the readers. It is quite well known that SrI Adi Sa~nkarar is regarded as the avatAra of Lord Siva to propagate mAyAvAda {mOha-SAstras} under the directions of PerumAL {ref RTS}. > " nAm manni vAzha solluvOm irAmAnusan nAmangalE " > > " May we chant the names of our lord Sri rAmAnujar and > have our lives proper!
