Dear Nappinnai, adiyEn is glad to see that you are going to post a series of articles on the outstanding work of Alavandhar, Stotra Ratnam. adiyen looks forward to the series. And the timing is perfect, since the day after tomorrow (Aug 10 - Adi Uttharadam) is Alavandhar's thirunakshatram. You had talked about Ramanuja mentioning his gratitude to Alavandhar. Here are a couple of quotes from Swami Ramanuja that emphasize that: "Am I not Ekalavya to Alavandhar?" "If I could have been with Alavandar, I would have built a staircase to Paramapadam". Also Ramanuja offers his praise to Alavandhar in the mangaLa shlokas of Vedartha Sangraham and Sri Vaikunta Gadyam. adiyEn madhurakavi dAsan --- vaidhehi_nc <nappinnai_nc@xxxx> wrote: > EmperumAnAr,in his samskrt work(gItha > bhAShya) expresses > his indebtedness and gratitude to this great AcAryA > without whose > grace,Ramanuja would not have been successful in > accomplishing his > tasks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
