srImathE rAmAnujAya namaha srImadh varavara munayE namaha Dear Sri Vishnu, You are right. Also you see the wordings " yathA thathA vApi". This means that you can do the anjali in whatever way we want, rather can. It is only the mindset that is very important here, that we are doing anjali to HIM. The same mind set can also be applied to learning the meaning of saraNAgathi. It is said that, "The Prayer for Him to be the upAyam" is what is called as saraNAgathi. That sloka is "tvamEva upAya bUthOmE bava ithi prArthanA mathi: sarNAgathi". So we have to have a mindset that He is the only upAyam. If this is there then the saraNAgathi that we have done makes sense. Otherwise.........
