SrI:
SrimthE Ramanujaya Nama:

Dear Srimad Ramanuja dAsA's and bhAgavathAs: :
adiyEn namaskArams to all::

AdiyEn would like continue with the previous mail about the second
attempt made by Periya Nambigal to bring IlaiyAzhwAr to Sri Rangam.

After the ALavandhAr's ascend to Paramapadham, there was the vacancy
to be filled up in the "Srivaishnava Darshanam" as a "Pravarthakar".
Hence all the mudhaligal (sishyA's) of ALavandhAr met and decided to
send Periya Nambigal again to Kanchipuram to bring back IlaiyAzhwar to
Sri Rangam and made him as "Darsana Pravarthakar".

Hence Periya Nambigal with his wife, left Sri Rangam with the
permission from Periya PerumAL, and walked along the way to
Kanchipuram and reached Madurantakam.

While at the same time, IlaiyAzhwAr requested Thiruk Kachchi nambigal
to answer his questions and doubts from Kanchi Devap PerumAL. After
'thiruvAlavattam' kainkaryam was over, Deva perumAL inquired about the
reason for Thiruk kacchi nambi's thought. 

We know that, three divyadesa emperumAn's lost their archAvathAra
samAthi and spoke to three persons respectively.

Upon hearing the word from Thiruk kachchi nambi, Sri PeraruLAlan,
VaradarAjan, Devadhi rAjan had released the great "SIX WORDS" which in
turn made IlaiyAzhwar to fell under the -thiruvadi-feet of Periya
Nambigal as AchAryar. The last sixth word "pUrNAchArya samAsrayE"
revealed IlaiyAzhwAr that, he has to surrender unto the lotus
thiruvadi of Periya nambigal as AchAryar. Hence he left to Sri Rangam
from Kanchipuram to meet Periya nambi, by informing Thiruk kachchi
nambi and darshan of Deva perumal.

While on the way to Sri Rangam, IlaiyAzhwar came to MadurAntakam to
worship yEri kAththa perumAL. But to the surprise, he met Periya
nambigal at the padiththuRai of the madurAntakam lake itself.(The
padiththuRai in album). Both were happy on seeing each other and
exchanged their vishayams.

Periya nambigal appealed IlaiyAzhwAr to get samAsrayaNam done at
Kachchi PEraruLAlan sannidhi. But IlaiAzhwAr rejected and said that he
was interested to get Pancha SamskAram at Madurantakam itself as
NammAzhwar said that:
the sareeram - dhEham - is "minnin nilaiyila......" ThiruvAimozhi.

Periya Nambigal appraised IlaiyAzhwAr and performed Pancha SamskAram
under the 'magizha' tree inside yEri kaththa Ramar temple. (The
magizha tree, Pancha SamskAra mandapam can be seen in album). After
the "Pancha SamskAram" was over IlaiyAzhwAr questioned about "Which is
PramANam? Who is PramEyam? Who is pramAthA?"

To that Periya nambigal replied "Dwayam is PramANam, Kanchi
pEraruLAlan is PramEyam, You (Ramanujar) are PramAthA"

Then both went to Kanchipuram instead of Sri Rangam. AchAryar Periya
Nambigal lived at the portion in the house of IlaiyAzhwAr at
Kanchipuram. After there was a mis-understanding between Periya
nambigal's wife and IlaiyAzhwar's wife, Periya Nambigal left
Kanchipuram without informing to his sishyA - IlaiyAzhwAr and reached
Sri Rangam back.

Again this time, Periya Nambigal couldn't able to get IlaiyAzhwAr
along with him to Sri Rangam. Finally, after some incidences in family
IlaiyAzhwAr came to knew that, samsAric life was not suitable for his
Atma yAtrA. Hence he send his wife to her birthplace, and then reached
Sri Rangam to do nithya kainkaryam to Periya PerumAL and fulfilled the
thought of his paramAchAryar ALavandhAr - "Aam ivan mudhalvan"- became
the "Darshana Pravarthakar" of Sri VaishNavam.

Here adiyEn want to conclude the part by analysing the meet of Periya
Nambigal and IlaiyAzhwAr at MadurAntakam. The distance between the
MadurAntakam and Sri Rangam is more than the distance between
Kanchipuram and MadurAntakam. Here AchAryan - Periya nabigal- reached
& covered more distance when compared with Sishya - IlaiyAzhwAr-.
Hence always EmperumAn and AchArya's reach would be more than the
Prapannan or jeevAtmA's reach towards Him or AchAryan!!!

To conclude with, adiyEn want share the pictures that was taken during
"Pancha SamskAra Vaibhavam" at MadurAntakam on Sep 16. By thinking
this Guru Prambara PrabhAvam, please have a look at following link:

http://picasaweb.google.com/b.senthil2002/Madurantakam

When ManavALa mAmunigal reached MadurAntakam to perform
mangaLAsAsanam, after seeing the gOpuram and magizha maram, exclaimed
"ithuvO thiru gOpuram, thiru magizham. IthuvO yethirAsarkku dwayam
yeentha thUyap pathi....."

If there's any mistake - "adiyEn Kshamikka prArthikkiREn"
Srimathe Ramanujaya nama:
adiyEn,
