  Notes :
 *********

 * SaThAri refers to one who his the enemy of SaTha vAyu, which
   actually influences the new born babies to get bounded by
   prakRuti ie.samsAra. Since NammAzhvAr controlled the SaTha-vAyu,
   he is addressed as "SaThAri". SaThakOpa implies a similar
   meaning. SaThajit also refers to the same meaning.
   (ji => To conquer).

 * The first AchArya of SrI Ahobila Muth is SrI Aadi-vaN SaThakOpa
   JIyar. Intimate connection got established between this JIyar
   and NammAzhvAr when the former obtained the latter's
   archa-mUrti at AazhvAr thirunagari and re-concecrated it.
   The title "vaN-SaThakOpa" is used for all the JIyars who
   followed this JIyar. Some JIyars had "SaThakOpa" as a part of
   their thirunAmam (name) also. The first JIyar was named as
   "SaThakOpa" Yati by Lord Lakshmi NRusimha.

 * ra~nga-SaThAri refers to SrI SrIra~nga SaThakOpa yatIndra -
   mahAdESika, popularly known as In~jimETTu Azhagiyasi~ngar
   (42nd paTTam). yati-indra implies "Prince of Yatis". Originally,
   Bhagavad RAmAnuja was known as "YatIndra" and "YatirAja".
   Many sannyAsis of this sampradAyam do caryy over that title.
   dESika implies "AchArya".

 * samyami is same as yati Or SannyAsi. To be more specific,
   it refers to one who has controlled all indriyas and mind,
   for performing yOga/dhyAna on SrIman NArAyaNa,the Para-Bramhan.

 * samyamivarAt + labdha = samyamivarAllabdha.

 * labh => To obtain.

 * aagama-anta-dvayam refers to Ubhaya-VEdAnta. aagama-anta is the
   end of aagama ie.vEdas, which is vEda-anta = vEdAnta.
   Ubhaya-VEdAnta => Twin-VEdAnta, comprising that of Sanskrit as
   well as Tamil (by AzhwArs).

 * vIra-raghUtvahAdya-SaThajit : This refers to SrI VIrarAghava
   yatIndra mahAdESika, popularly known as dEvanArviLAgam
   Azhagiyasi~ngar (43rd paTTam). The middle word refers to
   one born in the lineage of King Raghu, implying the name
   Raghava (RAma).
