Dear Smt Vedavalli, I agree with your views. As I was telling your son Sriman Narasimhan, such a Bhakti itself is His blessing according to SV AchAryas. For example, Bhattar says: "Bhagavati Bhakti: mahata: sukrtasya phalam" while comenting on the line "SraddhA bhakti samanvita:". This means Bhakti for the Lord is the result of the good work done by the mahAn (Lord Himself). Again for the word mahAn (aNur brhat.. line), Bhattar says everything happens as He wishes (including separation and union). AzhwArs and Srimad BhAgavata purANa do enjoy the Lord to the fullest extent. Only thing we have to do is to lead a meaningful life (considering that also to be His blessing - which we cannot prove).
