Dear fellow shishyas
Pillai Lokachariar says in his Mumukshupadi ?Acharya
Krupaiye uddharakam ? meaning thereby that only the
grace of one?s Acharyan will take us to the Lord,
Sriman Narayana.
We have been feeling for quite some time that we owe a
duty to maintain our great heritage of Acharya
abhimanam which is very important in Srivaishnava
sampradayam . We have the privilege of a succession of
illustrious Acharyas from the time of Bhagavat
Ramanuja and belong to a lineage of Acharyas having
sarira sambhandam with Sri Ramanuja that should make
us proud.
The shishyas belonging to the shishya paramparai of
Sirupuliyur Kanthadai Suddhasatvam Annan Swami are
spread throughout the world. It is worthwhile that the
shishyas come together on a common platform to pursue
goals that can enhance our association with the great
lineage.
As a first step, We have tried to assimilate some
information about our Acharyan and his paramparai as
recorded below.
It is our earnest desire that we form a group .The
uptake of this exercise could be beneficial to all
shishyas as a platform to share news/ information on
our Acharya paramparai, facilitating shishyas to meet
with our Acharyan whenever they plan to call on him
and other worthwhile actions to further enhance our
belonging to the Thirumaligai.
A Sri Vaishnava has to perform prapatthi to the Lord
through Acharyan only. Samashrayanam is an indication
of the same. The sambandham with our Acharyan has to
be restored and made stronger. This will make our
Acharyan reciprocate it for our benefit.
In case you happen to belong to shishya group of
Sirupuliyur Kathadai Suddhasatvam Annan Swami, please
contact us with your e-mail and residential address
and other details.We can then have a data base for the
shishyas and proceed further.
We understand that our Acharyan's Shisyas are a strong
force in the Sri Vaishnava sampardayic activities and
humbly request them to kindly come forward and provide
us with the thought leadership necessary for this
excercise.
