SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama:

Dearest all,

Let us continue to enjoy the acharyaâs glories. In our tradition, Acharya is 
equal to God if not more than Him. 

Next in our Acharya lineage is Senai Mudhaliarâ (nothing to do with mudhaliar 
sect prevalent today). This Mudhaliar means- the first one- Commander in chief. 
He is one of of Nithyasuris in Srivaikuntam. 

VISHWAKSENA: (aka Senai Mudaliar).  
He is said to have been born in the month  Aippasi in the constellation of 
Pooradam. The lord first taught Periya Piraatti and she in turn taught Senai 
Mudaliar the esoteric meanings. The  Slokas relating to Vishwaksena are as 
follows:  

 Vandhe Vaikunta Senaanyam Devam Sootravthee Sakham |
 Yad Vetra Sikhara Spandhe Viswam Yetad Vyavasthitham ||

(meaning) Next Acharya is Vishwaksena also known as Senai Mudaliar. Staying in 
Vaikunta, he directs, controls and supervises the duties of all. He is the 
Commander-in-Chief of the Lord. He wields a whip in his hand. The entire 
Prapancha functions in the constant fear of the whip-end striking them, if they 
err. His wife is Sootravathi. He rules over the entire world by his command. I 
next bow to this Vishwaksena.  

Yasya Dvurita Vaktraadhyaa Parishadhyaah Parah Satham |
 Vignam Nignanthi Sathatham Vishwaksenam Upaasmahe ||

I worship the one by whose quick commands function the entire Universe right 
from the Nityasuris downwards, the one who always removes obstacles and 
impediments (in performing ones duties) - I bow to such a one â Vishwaksena. 

Acharya is the one who takes us out of samsaaric afflictions and lead us to 
redemption. 

onRE pukalenRu uNarnthavar kAtta thiruvaruLaal
anRe adaikkalam koNda nam athigirith thirumAl
inRe isaiyin iNaiyadi sErppar inip piRavOm
nanRe varuvathu ellAm namakkup param onRu ilathE.

The SadAcAryAs who are familiar with the relationship between artha
pancakam and SareerAtma bhAvam instruct us that SrimAn nArayaNan alone is
our refuge and place us at His sacred feet as protection. The Lord of 
Hastigirireadily and immediately accepts that burden of our protection. He 
joins the prapanna jeevan recommended by His AcAryans to His sacred feet. After 
that merciful act, we will never be born in this Prakruti MaNDalam. After He 
accepts our saranagati, all joys and sorrows that come our way during the post 
prapatti period are just anukUlams (beneficial developments). We will have no 
burden on our part to carry after the Bhara SamarpaNam to the Lord.
