Sri:
Dear Sri Vasudevan:   Please accept adiyen's humble pranam:

Very Nice article, well written:

Adiyen would like to bring out a few factual points for discussion:

1: Almost all dwija Sri Vaishanvas who perform the SandhyaVandhanam
perform it as a Service to him (Kainkariyam) or for his pleasure 
(Preethyartham),
none of these devotees perform the Sandhya expecting any punyam/ benefit.

2: With respect to any Service to the LORD and his devotees (as 
Preethyartham or Kainkariyam),
if anyone starts performing ABC expecting back XYZ benefits, we are getting 
into a
very slippery slope of business transactions,  which is exactly opposite to 
what
SriVaishanvam preaches/ stands for.

3: For the dwija SriVaishnavas, performing regular sandhya qualifies us to do
other Agni Karyams, Veda Adhyayanam and other rituals.

4: Sandhya, other rituals, Love of GOD and devotees etc,
No matter how much convincing any "Person" can do and will do,
its only HIS will that will change hearts and people.

Given all these, there is no benefit that we seek from Sandya Vandanam
and if one does that is it not against SriVaishava principles.

=> At another location in the mail there is a QUOTE
"One should wake up from sleep at the hour known as the Brahma Muhurtham 
and then think of both religion and profit."
---- End Quote

Thinking of profits seems contrary to what we might want to do during 
Brahma Muhurtham.

Please do not mistake these points
