SrI:

Dear Bhagavad RaamAnuja SampradhAyins:

The 8th ChUrNikai is about the attendants of Lord RanganAthan.

The Ninth ChUrNikai is about a description of the Supreme abode of the Lord , SrI VaikunTham.

The Tenth ChUrNikai focuses on His recreations.

The 11th of the 18th ChurNikais is a moving invocation of the many names of the Lord that are associated with His anantha KalyANa GuNams .

The 12th ChUrNikai houses AchArya RaamAnujA's SaraNAgathi at the sacred feet of the dhivya Dampathis at Srirangam on that special Panguni Uttiram sErthi day .

The 13th ChUrNikai is in the form of a Prayer for Purification by our AchAryan .

The 14th ChUrNikai is about AchArya RaamAnujA's prayer for crossing over the Moola Prakruti made up of the three guNAs and being saved from its web.

The 15th chUrNikai seeks eternal service to the Lord as the desired end of His Prapatti .He appeals to the Lord of Srirangam to bless him with Parama Bhakti to render services of all kinds with unlimited love and devotion to Him.

In the 16th ChUrNikai, Lord Ranganatha answers Sri Ramanuja's prayer and grants the boon sought.

In the 17th ChUrNikai, the Lord of Srirangam gives instructions on how the devotee( Prapannan) should conduct himself during the remaining days of his life in His Leelaa VibhUti .

In the 18th and Charama (Final) ChUrNikai , Lord RanganAtha gives His assurance to AchArya RaamAnuja that

He will give him shelter and protection from all evils and the realization of Him and attainment of Moksha Sukham at the end of his days on earth at Srirangam .
