SrImathE Ramanujaya namah:

 

Dearest all,

 

KaNNan kaNNalladhu illayOr KaNNE!

Patthudai adiyavarkku eLiyavan; -

 

Like that Swami Nammaazhwaar immersed himself in the

parama bhakti towards KaNNan and shone as the very

personification of KrishNa bhakti. Swami Emperumaanaar

involved himself so deeply into the most wonderful

such srisookthis of Nammaazhwaar for this very reason

for their anubhavam and enjoyment of KaNNan and bhakti

to Him. Amudhanaar extols Ramanuja’s love for

Nammaazhwaar srisookthis here.

 

Let us enjoy the 29th verse:

 

koottum vithiyenRu kootungo lO,then kurukaippiraan

paattennum vEthap pachunthamiz thannaith,than

paththiyennum

veettin_gaN vaiththa iraamaa Nnuchanpukaz

Emperumaanaar- Sri Ramanujacharya kept in the core of

his heart, with great bhakti, the pAsurams of

Nammazhwaar’s Thiruvaaymozhi, that are considered

equal to Vedas, that are considered the essence of

Vedas, that are the graceful aruLiccheyalgaL of

NammAzhwAr of Thirukkuruhoor, that are composed in

sweet simple Tamil language.

 

When will I (this lowly self) get His grace for being

granted the permanent BhAgyam of being associated with

the Bhagawathas and the recipient of the kataaksham

from Bhagawathas who have realized and known the

Greatness and qualities of such Sri Ramanujacharya?

 

In every Divya Desam, and/ or wherever Ramanuja went;

he ensured and established that recitation and

rendition of the most beautiful divine Thiruvaaymozhi

of Swami Nammaazhwaar with great bhakti towards Shri

SatakOpar took place; and realizing EmperumAnAr’s

enjoyment of Thirumaymzohi, his sishya kOtis follow

the same. Amudhanaar longs and desires for being

associated with such devoted disciples group

[adiyaargaL kuzhaam] and to enjoy such a scene always.
