SrimatE Raamaanujaaya Namaha 

SrimatE Nigamaanta Mahaa Desikaaya Namaha 

Srimate Sri Lakshminrisimha Divyapadukasevaka Srivan Satakopa Sri 
NarayanaYatindra Mahadesikaya namaha 

Dear  Mr. A.Rangan  / Bhagavathas,

While I do not have any documentation from our sampradhayam to substantiate my 
views , I feel , by common sense and  logic we can arrive at  the conclusion  , 
why  "Kadal thandaradu", crossing the ocean is forbidden for us ? . 

As per our sampradhayam , we are all supposed to observe lots of  discipline in 
our way of life through rituals , like doing  the thrikala sandhya vandanam , 
performing our daily rituals ,  using only well water for our cookings , 
observance of strict discipline in our eating habits  and worshiping only 
Sriman Narayanan in case of people who have taken Baranyasam  ,etc.  

While all these could be well  in our control , while we are in our native land 
 , it would be rather difficult to observe strictly while we are in a foreign 
land ,  where we are likely to be dictated by the  local rules of the land due 
to our various obligations . 

More over ,  travel to distant land in those days , was not that easy like 
today, where it might take number of days or even months to reach those land . 
So during travel , one might be required to dilute the observance of 
sampradhayam rules. Even today , when we travel to far east or west it takes 
more than 20 / 24  hours sometimes , even by fastest mode of travel and so 
there is a possibility of dilution. 

That is why that rule was made. If we have reached a stage , where we could 
demand the basic needs  without any problem and get them , to observe our 
sampradhayam  karmas , I do not think foreign travel is prevented since Sriman 
Narayanan is also the LORD of those land as well and spreading HIS glory in 
those areas is one of our kamyakarmas. 

I trust I am able to give a meaningful explanation for the query. 

Regards

Ramanuja Dasan- G. Sampath.
