Dear sirs,

Hearty pranams to all. I have become a new member of
this group .
> I am deeply interested in Vishistadvaita philosophy
. 
>I would like to take part in the discussions related
to that.
> To start with i would like to share a few of my
thoughts related to that !

These thoughts are pertaining to the contemporary
relevance of our sampradayams. i share this purely due
to my childish curiosity. Let it not hurt anyone.

>> In ancient days all the brahmans used to have
tikkas(kudumy) nowadays all of us don't.

>> the daily schedule of a brahman is to do
sandyavandanam, take bath , prepare for the day's
worship, get biksha for his food and so on ...
now all of us don't.

>> brahmans should not travel across the sea...

like this we have big list of dos and don'ts.

as the decades pass by the dos have been modified and
donts have become dos after little modifications by ?!

Now the question is, having witnessed this type of
evolution, what is the contemporary relevance of
any/most of our sampradyams in the present day
scenario ?

> does this discussion has to continue about the
relevance of the sampradayams till we get a solution ?
OR
> should we have to follow them as far as possible,
in order to carry the tradition to the future
generations to come ? OR
> Can we settle down to some common understanding of
modifying them to everyone's needs ( not whims and
fancies)?

if any of us share thoughts regarding this i will be
glad to understand better.
