Sri:

Dear All:

Sriman Jayasayanan has summarized well the arguments
about Prapatthi being an independent means for Moksham.
I will add more information on this important subject soon.

Subject: Regarding No prapatti in Gita indicated by Shrimad Ramanujachariar


Adiyen Dasan:

Few days before I saw this query been raised

To this answer was given by Nainaaraacharyar in his Rahasyatraya Saaraartha 
Sangrah

Shrimad Ramanujacharya, as criticised by few, said to interpret this line as 
prapatti is only a limb of bhakti but not an independent means. Aacharya 
explains that intention of Bhaashyakaara is different. Lord at many places 
indicated that he is bestower of all that one wants and prapatti is capable of 
conferring all that one needs. Shrimad Ramanujacharya is of the view that when 
prapatti which is all, effacacious is made a limb of bhaktiyoga, these latter 
yogas also will become capable of conferring fruits on the aspirants. This only 
adds to the great efficacy of prapatti.

Svetaasvataram vide VI-18 
yo brahmaanam vidadhaati poorvam yo vai vedaamshcha prahinoti tasmai
tamha devam aatmabuddhiprakaasam mumukshur vai charanam aham prapadye
as a proof sanctioning prapatti as a direct means of salvation. Aacharya points 
out that charama sloka is explanatory of this mantra
