Sri:
SrimathE RAmAnujAya nama:

Dear Sri Parthasarathy,

I consider myself lucky when I see people who answer my 
questions patiently. My sincere thanks to you.

Sure I'll do that.

I totally agree with you. I told my friend that the whole vEdAs are 
in compressed form in these three. So he should chant with faith in 
Sriman NArAyaNA and also should be learnt under an AchAryA. I also 
told him that I myself don't know so many things but learning now. My 
friend asked me how to control the mind. So I told him that HE only 
can help us,so chant the name of the God. I don't impart any wrong 
knowledge be it any subject(this is my second petition). I put a 
clause "whatever I know" I 'm sharing.

I have some books by Sri Puthur swamy. Do you have 36000padi in 
Toronto or India? 

I am cutting your passage,and I need more clarification:

"Thiruvaimozhi is coming to end and Namazhvar is to enter 
Vaikuntham fully blessed by Emperuman.
Namazhar wondered as to why Emperuman kept him in samsara for a 
long time.
So he asks Emperuman the reason for his action.
Emperuman replied that "You have agreed to my entry in your mind" 
Azhvar is not satisfied His further queries are excerpts as 
avilable in Thiruvaimozhi"

I am not understanding the statement "you have agreed to my entry in 
your mind" in connection with your other statements. Sorry for 
pestering you.

True,one has to constantly desire to reach Him and get rid of this 
samsArA.

All I know is my maternal pUrviham is TirumAlirum sOlai,so I thought 
the name Azhagar came from Kallazhagar! Thanks for your AruL katAksham
