AchArya's role in Prapatti

[Guest guest]

SrI:

namO nArAyaNa!

 

Dear SrI KrishNa,

 

Please refer to the archives (Dec 4,1999), a detailed

posting on Prapatti :

 

<< Probably the archives do not function as reported earlier.

SrI Dileepan is requested to look into it >>

 

Following is an extract from it. Hope this helps for

some of the questions.

 

-------------------------

8. SrI Vishnutattvam (quoted by SwAmi dESikan in the

CharamaslOkAdhikAram of SrImad Rahasya traya sAram) :

 

samtyajya vidhinA niyam ShadvidhAm SaraNAgatim |

aachAryAnuj~nayA kuryAt SAstradrushtEna vartmanA ||

 

< Giving up all object of desire and the karmAs by

which they can be secured, SaraNAgati with its

five angAs should be performed with the permission

of the aachArya, in accordance with the rules

prescribed in the sAstrAs and with renunciation of

the fruits of all actions >.

 

So, the sanction of aachArya is extremly important.

------------

 

aDiyEn rAmAnuja dAsan,

Anand.

I think Krishna's question was not about obtaining

AchArya-anumathi for seeking SaraNAgathi, (because

SaraNagathai is sought only in perumAL) but whether

it is to be sought *only* through the AchAryan (in

addition to getting permission).

 

Truly,

-Srinath C.
