SrI:
SrImathE Ramanujaya namah:

Dearest all

Like himself, EmperumAnar has arranged even his
sishyas to save the world thereby the people and hence
one can take refuge at the feet of his sishyas.  

vaLarum piNikoNta valvinai yaal,mikka nalvinaiyil
kiLarum thuNivu kitaiththaRi yaathu mutaiththalaiyoon
thaLarum aLavum thariththum vizunthum thanithirivER
kuLarem iRaivar iraamaa NnuchanRannai uRRavarE  96

Due to being immersed in samsaaric ocean that gives me
continuity of sorrows one after the other, I did not
have the desire to perform Sarangathi. This athmA
residing in this foul smelling, hairy, fleshy, filthy
body [having malam moothram, blood, waters within it],
did not listen to the advice given by scholars and
elderly people and fell again and again in the sensual
objects and pleasures. For such me, EmperumAnar came
and saved me on his own accord. Now I have his ardent
sishyas as my companions to keep me on this track and
to hold onto. Their abhimanam towards me alone is
enough for me to be raised above all this dirt. 
 
vaLarum piNi kOnda ? the ever growing diseases are due
to
valvinaiyaal- karma vaasanaas ? cruel mahaa paapams
and because of that 
mikka nal vinaliyil- the most wonderful Moksha upayam
[the means of attainment of mojksha] 
kiLarum thuNivu kidaitthaRiyaadhu ? unable to get that
mahaa viswAsam 
mudai thalai ? foul smelling 
oon- sareeram
thaLarum aLavum- even when it is worn out and is
withering away and even then
tharitthum vizhundhum ? born and dies again and again
[without realizing]
thani- without any hold, or refuge, suffering all
alone
thirivERku- wandered and suffered in the world of
samsaaram and to such me, 
Iraamanusan thannai - Ramanuja?s 
uRRavarE- sishyas alone [who have taken refuge at the
feet of Ramanuja] 
em Iraivar uLar- are our saviurs and rakshakars for
all of us [likes of myself]. 

Nalvinai- The dharmam- the means to attain mOksham.
Moksha upAyam. In them, nyAsa mEshAm
thapasaamathirikthamaaho: - Saranagathi is the best
and direct means. Though born in the vamsam where one
needs to have maha viswASam in that Saranagathi, I did
not have any desire for the same; I did not desire for
aprAkrutha ThirumEni- the Suddha sattva body in
Parampadham where Sarva gandha; Sarva rasa: the most
sweet fragrant body ?sareeram can be taken which is
transcendental material [suddha sattvam]. Or one can
choose not to have Sareeram at all and have Athma
swraoopam. One can blissfully enjoy the Parama patha
nAthan Sriman Narayanan and His most divine abode
Srivaikuntam with all his paraphrenelia in fullest
glory. 

Instead, I chose to enjoy the fleeting transitory
pleasures of satisfying carnal desires and running
amuck after sensual pursuits, though they are all
associated with ever increasing pains and thereby
further more paapams and future births. Even at the
ripe old age, the body chooses to enjoy the sense
organs running behind the objects of theirs seeking to
satisfy their respective units.

At any point of time none associated with me or who
were elders did not advise me against such paths or
the traps. Though some did, I never bothered to listen
to. I was a karma vasyan. Due to my past karmas I did
not have an iota of coming back to Sathsampradaya
maargam. Though I was wandering like a vagabond
running amuck behind worldly pursuits, it is because
of Swami Ramanuja?s sishyas? support and hold, I have
been saved. It is because of Swami kooratthAzhwAn I
have been brought to Swami?s lotus feet and thus
saved. It is they [Ramanuja?s sishyas] who are my
saviors and are rakshakars. Thus all of you [like me]
if you hold onto Ramanuja dAsars? feet, you all can
also be blessed with NarayanansthAnam at Srivaikuntam.
