Dear Sri Adisesh IyengAr :
Thozhappar was a famous VidhvAn at
the time of Sri Adhi VaNN SaThakOpa
Jeeyar ( the Founding Jeeyar of Ahobila
Matam) .
He sought the sacred feet of Adhi VaNN
SaThakOpa Jeeyar , recieved Pancha SamskArams
and performed Grantha ChAtushtya ( SrI BhAshyam,
GeethA BhAshyam , Bhagavath Vishayam and
SrIMath Rahasya Traya Saaram ) from His
AchAryan , who recognized the scholarship
and AchArya Bhakthi of Thozhappar .
SrI Adhi VaNN SathakOpa
Jeeyar asked
Thozhappar to compose a few dharma sAstra
granthams for the benefit of SrI VaishNavAs .
Thozhappar placedthe niyamanam of his AchAryan
on his siras and created 8 granthams :
1.Gruhya Ratnam 2. GhaNDa BhUshaNam
3. Smruti RatnAkaram 4. PitrumEdha Saaram
5. SudheevilOchanam ( Commentary on # 5)
6.DaSa NirNayam 7. AaSoucha satakam
and 8. AaSouhca nirNayam .
Adhi VaNN SaThakOpa Jeeyar was
immensely pleased with Thozhappar's
Kaimakryam and its quality and honored
his sishyan with the Birudhu of
"Vaidhika Saarvabhoumar" .
The seed for much of what we
know as Ahnika Granthams started
from Thozhappar based on his
Vast knowledge of Dharma Saastrams .
Other Azhagiya Singars enlarged
that corpus of Knowledge .
NamO SrI NrisimhAya ,
