Sri Parthasarathi thunai
Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha
Sri Vara Vara MunayE Namaha
Sri VanAchala mahA munayE Namaha

SrisailEsa dayA pAthram deebhakthyAdhi gunArnavam
Yateendra pravanam vandhE ramya jAmataram munim

RamyajAmatru yOgeendra pAdha rEkhA mayam sadhA
thathAyathatAthma sadhdhAthim rAmAnuja munim bhajE

Hearing swamy?s welcoming note, all of them prostrated fully into swamy?s feet 
and recited panchAdhees like ?nakarmana? and ?vEdhAhamEtham? and submitted all 
the offerings they have got to swamy. Swamy acceptedthem and went inside 
followed by the crowd of vAdhoolas and sat in his seat. Then swamy gave a brief 
lecture on ?poliga poliga? thiruvAimozhi padhigam and thiruppallAndu. Swamy 
then blessed them all to become good srivaishnavas and spend their time in 
mangalAsAsanams.

Then annan requested swamy to permit Vanamamalai Jeeyer swamy to do 
samasrayanam to him. Periya Jeeyer stood up from his seat and went to a secret 
place and called annan to that place through vanamamalai Jeeyer. Then swamy 
asked annan, ?Don?t you belong to a great kulam and are you not in a position 
to become the kulaguru of many? Then why this request?? Annan replied, ? Please 
swamy don?t say like that? and apologized for his earlier acts and explained to 
swamy about his dream and devaperumal?s orders.

Swamy with a smile then said, ?Ok. Now there are a few more who belong to 
EyAn?s clan who haven?t change their mind yet. They have been opposing us for 
quite sometime and now perumal will change them too like he did for you and so 
along with all of them after three days, the fourth day from today, all of you 
will get samAsrayanam?. Happy with swamy?s assuranceall of them received the 
prasadams and returned back to their places.

Then dEvaperumAl appeared in the dream of Annan?s cousin, varadAryar and 
ordered him as follows: ?Go immediately to kOil and surrender under the feet of 
vanamamalai Jeeyer, who is like a shadow (padharEkhA) of ramyajAmAthru 
yOgeendrar and who is fully involved in service to his acharya and hencevery 
close to his acharya?s heart, and get uplifted.? Surprised by the dream but 
unable to neglect it, varadArya started towards kOil (Srirangam). He met annan 
and others and told them his dream. They inturn told himabout their dream.

Similarly periya perumal also changed a few others by declaring in their 
dreams, ? I, who has taken archAroopam have now taken Acharyaroopam also. So 
you all according to the verse, ?Acharyam mAm vijAneeyAth bhava bhandha 
vimOchakam? surrender with due regards into jeeyer?s feet and get uplifted?. 
Considering this to be their prime duty all of them followed annan to Periya 
Jeeyer?s mutt. Annan, took them all to swamy and requested swamy saying, ?The 
day marked by devarir has come and all those who remained egoist till today 
have been changed by bhagavat krupai (perumal?s words in their dreams) and have 
now joined this ghosti. Now we all beg devarir to please shower your grace on 
all of us.?

Pleased with the request, Periya Jeeyer ordered Vanamamalai Jeeyer to make 
necessary preparations for the samskAram (ritual) and proceeded to do 
thiruvArAdhanam After thiruvArAdhanam, swamy sat himself in front of the 
sannadhi and called everyone interested in undergoing samAsrayanam.
?chakrAdhi dhAranam pumsAm parasambhandha vEdhanam I pathivrathA nimithamhi 
valyAdhi vibhooshanam II?

Let us take part in the Acharya samAsrayanam of the vadhoolas and others inthe 
next posting.
