pattangi mama,
 
It is correct that we should follow our acharyas. The dasa bhava is missing in 
the
srivaishnava's today esp the younger lot. We have to tell them and all this I 
think
is because at times we elders are not able to give a proper scientific reason 
for 
the things we do to our next gen.
 
Adiyen request that all of us read our scriptures and follow the dicources of 
our
acharyas and do the service of explaining to our children.

sri:

It is really heartening to see many devotees interested in discussing these 
issues.

It is good to discuss, enquire and seek knowledge.

If you are not sure, then please ask a as a question? Do not write 
final statements, unless it is a quote from Purvacharyas works.

Please not use words like "what is the big deal " while talking about 
sampradayic issues.

It is always best to just quote purvacharyas works regarding these issues.

Adiyen requests devotees to not take what they hear from others as the final, 
unless and until it is backed as the words of our Purvacharyas.

======================================================
UpadesaRattinaMalai:

So those who start preaching on their own and ARE NOT repeating exactly 
as per purvacharyas are not only becoming themselves Murkhas, 
others who end up listening to them become Murkha as well.
======================================================

All the questions we talk/ ask / discuss have have answers by our purvacaharyas.
It is our ego that makes us NOT to look at purvacharyas sri Sooktis.

But while discussing these issues, we have to be careful not to give the 
Incorrect message.

=====From a scholar in India =============
Bharata is for paratantryam and Lakshmana is for seshatvam 
as proved in many of our purvacharya srisooktis.

Bharata's stature is much higer to Lakshmana.

Abhimana bhangamai refers to ahankara
Abhimana tungan selvanai pola refers to satvika ahankara. 
=====From a scholar in India =============
