Dear bhagavatas,

For quite sometime there is a hot discussion about nirheduka krupai in this 
group. Adiyen is not so eligible to take part in the discussion. Still let me 
put forth adiyen's understanding of the same.

One begger comes in front of a house and asks for alms. Is his shouting or 
asking alone enough for him to get alms? No. The person inside should have 
dayai or krupai to help the begger. So can the beggar just sit without asking? 
No. Both the acts should happen. It is the duty of the beggar to go from one 
door to other and beg but getting something depends on the person inside the 
house. Similarly we should surrender to the divine feet of the lord, but 
granting moksha lies in his hand (his nirheduka krupa). Our surrendering cannot 
be a means to attain moksha but we should definitely do prapatti to make 
emperuman shower his grace on us. 

Alwar emperumAnAr Jeeyer thiruvadigale sharanam
