Dear
bhAgavatas,
Please note that the idea that the first Jeeyar
of Ahobila Mutt, Sri AdhivaN Satakopa Jeeyar, is the one who initiated
Sri Manavala MamunikaL into sanyAsAshramam, is not accepted by all scholars
or sampradhayins.
Yatindra Pravana Prabhavam which gives us
the vaibhavam of MamunikaL states the following "... appOthE thamakku
sabrahmachAriyAna satakOpa jIyar sannidhiyilE ezhuntharuLi ..."
It
is to be noted here that it is not stated that MamunikaL took
sanyAsAshramam from AdhivaN Satakopa Jeeyar. Instead it is said that he
took sanyAsAshramam from SatakOpa Jeeyar and that this Jeeyar was his
fellow disciple (sabrahmachAri).
The latter should make it clear that
it could not have been AdhivaN Satakopa Jeeyar. He was not a
co-disciple of Mamunikal, under Thiruvaymozhip Pillai.
So, who was
this Satakopa Jeeyar from whom MamunikaL took sanyasAshramam? This was the
7th pattam Jeeyar of Azhvar Thirunagari Emperumanar Jeeyar matam, who
indeed was Thiruvaymozhip Pillai's disciple along with MamunikaL, at
Azhvar Thirunagari. His name is recorded as "emperumAnAr kOyil
sathkOpa jIyar" in periya thirumudi adaivu.
That he gave MamunikaL
sanyasAshramam is recorded in his vaibhavam as well as in his vAzhi
thirunAmam "azhagiya maNavALa munikku Asiramam aLiththa
pirAn vAzhiyE".
