samASrayaNam means samyak ASrayaNam or completely taking refuge in the Lord. This can happen at any moment by His blessings, while reading PBA swami's book, or when a place of worship like Thirumala is visited, or when we interact with a living mahAtmA. For those like us born in SV families, we undergo something called chakrAnkanam or having the holy marks on us, this process is also known as samASrayaNam. Those interested in "following" Srivaishnavism should approach an AchArya and seek his guidance. Instead, such people from non-SV families are also putting condition on the Acharyas "Do me samASrayaNam". Acharya is the right judge. Let him lead out of AchArya abhimAnam (AchArya's abhimAnam). adiyEn rAmAnuja dAsan Srimahavishnu Vinjamuri ------------------------ Yahoo!
