Sri.U.Ve Karapankadu Swami is a gnana, bhakthi, vairaghya bhooshanam who
lived amongst us in the last century. This noble hearted sole rode like a
?simham?, to spread our Ramanuja Sidhantham based solely on our
poorvacharya granthams. Those who lived during his days and had the
bhagyam of listening to his kalakshepams are indeed blessed souls. Adiyen
is not one of those bhagyasalis.
Adiyen is undoubtedly not qualified to write anything about this great
soul. However, adiyen is blessed to surrender unto an acharya lineage
(K.K.A Thirumani Swamikal) who had Sri Bhashyam and Bhagavath Vishayam
kalakshepam from Kaparankadu Swami. Adiyen?s mandha buddhi considers this
fact as an incentive enough to be associated with Karapankadu Swami and
pay my gratitude.
This small work on the life and works of Karapankadu Swami was based on a
Tamil booklet written by one of the notable sishyas of Swami, namely
Sri.U.Ve. Vangipuram Pattangi Kumaravadi Ramanujacharyar. This work was
also initiated by ?VEDICS? in an ongoing effort to create
awareness to this generation about our sampradhaya giants who lived in
the recent past.
It is simply unnecessary to say adiyen is only responsible for all the
mistakes and errors in this attempt. If there is any merit or use from
this work, it should only be to the credit of Sri. Ramanujacharyar swami
and ashmath Acharyan.
As
Thondapadipodi Azhwar said in Thirumaalai, adiyen is nothing but
'salamila anilam polen' and wish all the bhagavathas will accept my
mandha budhi's words even though they are nothing but 'ilaiya pun
kavithai'.
