SrI: SrImathE Ramanujaya namah: Dearest all, Let us enjoy the fifth verse of Amudhanaarâ??s Iraamaanusa nooRRanthAthi: enakkuRRa chelvam iraamaa NnuchanenRu ichaiyakillaa manakkuRRa maanthar pazikkil pukaz avan manniyacheer thanakkuRRa anpar avanthiru naamangaL chaaRRumenpaa inakkuRRam kaaNakil laar,paththi Eyntha iyalvithenRE. 5 If some people (who are not blessed with the mind to appreciate the greatness of Ramanuja) talk low of these verses which declare that Ramanuja is the invaluable wealth for me (and Srivaishnavas), even that adds to his greatness only. Those who know of Ramanuja and his kalyANa guNAs will not see any flaw or find anything wrong with these verses; and also, will they realize that it is due to my bhakti /devotion towards Ramanujacharya that has enabled me to compose this. I, Ramanuja dAsa, as mentioned in the earlier verse, have now realized that Ramanuja alone is the greatest and only wealth and have sung in praise of Him here. Those who have highest regards and bhaki for Paramacharya Sri Ramanuja would know that these verses have arisen out of the limitless acaharya bhakti and hence would not see any faults nor would they talk low. Those lowly humans, who are not [aware of Sri Ramanujaâ??s glories] would find faults and if they do that, we would consider that as plus point only and it would add to Acharyaâ??s glories. enakkuRRa selvam Ramanusan- Ramanuja is my invaluable wealth. This line can be linked to those bhAgawathAs also who talk high about Amudhanaarâ??s verses. i.e. Those BhAgawathas who consider that Ramanuja alone is their invaluable wealth, would talk high of these verses. It can also be linked in a complementary sense to â??othersâ??, the lowly humans who find faults with these verses and talk low of them. For them, Ramanuja is not their wealth and they have not realized his glories. They are foolish [maandhar]. The world knows these people are capable of mentioning only such criticisms and hence when they say something low of anything, BhAgawathas would realize that, there should be something great about these verses. Thus their talking low actually add value to these verses and hence, Ramanujaâ??s greatness.
