Dear SRI srikanth parthasarathy, Here are the answers as i know it but more learned inthe group pl. correct me if i am wrong. Q-1) In sri vaishnava philosophy, we surrender to sriman narayana only, the supreme deity. All our offerings, prayers and rituals are only intended to obtain his grace.We sri vaishnavas donot consider puthu and milk pouring as rituals to obtain grace of the supreme lord. Q-2) A sri vaishnavas right hand is considered to be the place of agnis presence. Hence we donot receive karpura mangalarthi as other brahmins do. Thanks c.k.srinivasan. >From: SRIKANTH PARTHASARATHY <kanthsri69@xxxxxxxxxxx> >To: SriRangaSri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [SriRangaSri] Clarification on Sri Vaishnavan >Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2004 04:37:50 +0100 (BST) > > Can any of the Bhagavathaa please explain the >following doubts: > >1) Does a Sri Vaishnavan do the Ritual of Pouring Milk >in Puttu (" Putukku Paal Thelithal").
