Dear SrIman Venkatesan : Many thanks for your mail. I appreciate it very much. V.Sadagopan Dear Sri Sadagopan Swamin, adiyEn's praNAms. My apologies if you felt that I was starting a debate on sampradhayic approaches. That wasn't the intent. adiyEn is aware of the difference in philosophy of the two sampradhayams toward nithya karmas. Actually what I was wondering about was what you are saying - "absolute priority of Nithya KarmAs like SandhyA Vandhanam" - I thought this was the emphasis - that all nitya karmas are to be followed. Whereas Sri Ramachandran was insisting that other nitya karmas can be given up but not the sandhyavandanam. The pramaNAm I was asking for was for that idea only. adiyEn added the notes about Bhattar and Pillai Lokacharyar just to show that there are some differences in approach to the topic of nitya karmas. No more. adiyEn madhurakavi dAsan --- Sadagopan <sgopan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Dear SrI VenkatEsan: > > The clarification that you requested on this important > point is rooted in views of two SampradhAyams. > > It is not productive to labor over this point , which > has been debated many times in the lists .
