Dear swAmy,
Yes, The GuruparamparA prabhAvam is not clear whether six questions was asked
or more or less.
The prabhannAmrudham, however, clearly mentions that 4 questions were asked
.These were asked through Thirukkachi nambi to PEar aruLALan
1. upAyangaLiL edhu nalladhu? - Which is the best of means?
2. mOksham adaivadhaRku mun anthima smrithi vEANdumA? -Does one needs to have
His thought before breathing last,to attain mOksham?
3. endha janmathil mOksham adaivadhu? When will the mOksham be granted?
4. endha AchAryanai nAn Asrayippadhu? To Which spiritual mentor Should I
surrender to/
Sri RamAnuja rquested Sri Thirukkachi Nambi as follows: " These questions have
been in mind and I have more or less made up my mind regarding this. Please ask
these questions to dhEvap perumAL"
The Lord of course replied by fathoming the mind of Thirukkachi Nambi, Himself.
Let it be. That was not my doubt actually.
It is clear that Sri Udayavar had the questions in his mind-whether it was
expressed or not.
However, DhEVap perumAL while explaining to Thriukkachi NambigaL mentions that
Sri RAmAnujar is like Sri KrshNA learning from SAnthEpani.
Such type of questions emanating from already learned people shoud be
categorised, where was my doubt?
regards
dAsan

Subject: [ramanuja] The Six Questions
dear shri padmanabhan,
thanks foryour feedback.
as for the "Aaru vaarthai", though we have the six answers furnished by
Perarulaalan, we do not appear to have the precise questions asked, nor do we
know that they were six in number. i shall be grateful for any additional light
you can throw on the matter.
regards, dasan, sadagopan
