Sri Parthasarathi thunai

Srimathe Ramanujaya namaha

Sri Vara Vara munaye Namaha

 

Sri ILaiyAzhwAr Vaibhavam-15

 

Thereby Sri ramanuja accepted sanyasa and performed the respective duties 
without any flaw. ?What a wonder? By the divine grace of swamy alavandaar, all 
the hinderances in my way have been easily removed and a right pathhas been 
shown to me. Similarly it will be nice if I am able to fulfill the wishes of 
swamy alavandaar? thought ramanuja in his minds. While his mind wondered in the 
same thought suddenly swamy was reminded of govinda bhattar. ?He is our 
wellwisher; moreover he is filled with vairakya and has a saintly attitude 
towards life and has a great scholarship in the sastras. It will be nice if 
someone joins him with us; now he is under the service of another deity 
(devathAntharaparan). Who will make him realize the defects in the place where 
he is (ullankai konarindha edam) and make him understand the superiority of 
emperuman who is adorned as ?sarvagandha: sarvarasa:? wondered swamy.  

 

Then swamy can to the conclusion that his acharya Sri Periya thirumalai nambi, 
who is a bureau of Athma gunas, well versed in vedas and vedantha, who has a 
deep interest in the divine works of vakulAbharanar, sri nammazhvar, who is 
under the daily service of thiruvenkatamudaiyan (?thiladha mulagukkAi nindra 
thiruvEnkataththu emperuman?) and who is one of the greatest acharyas is the 
best suitable person for changing govinda bhattar.

 

Immediately, swamy sent a word to Periya thirumalai nambigal through a 
srivaishnava stating that, ?Your sister?s son vattamaNigovinda bhattan who was 
my classmate and a very close friend, due to bad contacts has changed path and 
is presently staying in the wrong place kalahasthi; My (adiyen?s)humble request 
to swamy is that for my sake please shower your nirheduka krupa (grace without 
any reason) on him and bring him to the right path.

 

Meanwhile, coming to know about the sanyasa ashrama sveekaram (acceptance) of 
Swamy, kandhAdai mudaliyAndAn and hAreedhakula thilakar thirumarumArban 
otherwise well known as kooraththAzhvan with great love came to perumal koil, 
prostrated ramanuja and requested swamy to bless them with panchasamskaram. 
Ramanuja was also deeply impressed and hence blessed them with panchasamskaram 
as per their wish. Very happy to have been blessed by swamy, bothof them 
keeping the following verses in mind always remained under the divine 
kainkaryam to the acharya,?atheetya manthramAchAryam poojayE sakthithO dvaja:I 
AcharyAdheenavriththisthu yAvajjeevam sadhA susi: II?
