Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya nama:
Dear Sriman Soundararajan,
           Humble praNAms to you. If I follow your english(and on 
the assumption that my English is neither Shakespearean nor Bacon)
closely, I figure out from "pAratantryam is making 'oneself' ready" 
that jIvAtma has independence!!! Correct me if I'm wrong/misread 
your post. I may think that I deserve the krpa of the Lord but the 
Lord may think differently. How can I act in such a way that it only 
gives pleasure to the Lord? Even if I give displeasure(according to 
my eyes) He may lick it as a pleasure(according to His eyes). In 
effect, my act shouldn't become a cause for Him to react(that's why 
His grace is called "causeless/nirhEtuka grace/mercy/krpa")! This is 
a very subtle point which can not be translated into any language 
properly except in the heart,mind and in practice. I'm an infant in 
my sampradAyam so please pardon all errors.
