Subject: AchArya Sishyan 3 AchArya-Sishyan

Recap:
It was seen that AchAryathvam sparkles fromt he perception of EmperumAn.
Bhagawath kainkaryam from the angle of swAchAryan. AchAryan is the extension of
his AchAryan and therefore the Sishyan is actually disciple of his
AchAryan.
Now, then what is then required of the
AchAryan? This is answered in the next SUthram
'AchAryanukku sihsyan pakkal
krupaiyum swAchAryan pakkal pArathanthriyamum vEANum" 313;
'kripayAl sishyan swarUpam
siddhikkum;pArathanthriyathAl than swarUpam siddhikkum"
314;
AchAryan should have mercy towards the
disciple and impart him all the knowledge. This will result in the disciple's
AtmA guNam getting reformed and therefore his nature of Atman gets
purified.
Similarly, AchAryan should always consider
the sishyan as his AchAran-s sishyan and he is only insturmental in imparting
the knowledge. Thus he is displaying pArathanthriyam towards his AchAryan, his
natue of Atman also sparkles.
Summary:
It must be very clear now that the AchAryan should consider himself as a
branch or extenison of his AchAryan and teach the disciples. This is will
automatically culminate in being pArathanthriyam towards his AchAryan making his
swArupam to blossom.
Similarly, by showing mercy towards the
disciple if he imparts him eduction, the sishyan attains knowledge and his
swarUpam also blossoms. Thus it is said, by mercy sishyan's Atma guNam blossoms
and by pArathanthryam the AchAryan's Atma guNam blossoms.
