Respected Bhagavathas,
Dasoham!!
Sometime back in a discussion thread relating to "Sandhya and Gayatri", a 
Bhagavatha posted a query intending to know the source of "Dhyeyassada Savitru 
mandala madhyavarthi..." shlokam. 
This shlokam is from "Brihath Parasara Smrithi". This is quoted by Sri 
Bhashyakara in his "Vedartha Sangraha" in the context of establishing the 
"Divya mangala vigraham" of Srimannarayana along with may other quotes from 
Shruthi, Smrithi and Ithihasas. I came across this information while going 
through English Translation of "Vedartha Sangraha" by Sri S. S. Raghavachar, 
published by Ramakrishna mutt. Incidentally, this translation is wonderful. I 
request all bhagavathas to procure a copy of this. Actually, the structure and 
style of this work of Sri Ramanuja itself comes across something refreshingly 
different from other literary works of Vedantha. The whole work presents itself 
in a flow, more like a presentation of modern orator. The traditional account 
that this work was composed as a lecture in front of Thiruvengadamudaiyan by 
Sri Ramanuja sound fairly credible.
