SrI :
Dear Sri Rajan :
This essay was posted with the awareness of
the dates ascribed to AzhwArs by modern day scholars
(5th to 9th Century C.E). AmudhanAr's date is post-Raamanuja
( 11th to 12th century C.E) .
The reference to "ChathvAri Sahasram" and "Rusmaa "
attracted my attention among the Rg Veda Manthrams
that I quoted . That is very appropriate reference point to
take off on a reflective flight . It is indeed a meaningful
stretch .
You are surely familiar with the reference of Sukha
Brahmam in Srimath BhAgavatha slOkam about the future
avathArAms of great Jn~Anis(AzhwArs) on the banks of
TaamrabharaNi , Cauvery et al.
NamO Veda PurushAya ,
