Dear Sir Bhakti is the last stage where one can find peace.By properly studying vedantha we can understand Bhakti. even Sri Veda Vyasa who codified all Vedas and not satisfied wote Srimad Bhagavatham a Bhaki devotional Text . Then he got satisfaction that is the power of Bhakthi, . The same is with Sri Adi Sankara who studied all Vedas, Upanishads , Puranas and all texts available at that time but finally he wrote BhajaGovindam that is the power of Bhakti.

But, may I request those who wish to respond do so by private mail to Sri Jayaram T with a copy marked to Ramanbil@xxxx? Thanks Dasoham Anbil Ramaswamy ============================================================================ ============================================= Dear Mr. Srivaishnavan, I am a new member of this group. I joined quite recently and am trying to follow the proceedings of this group. Your email has been greatly useful in how well it orderly presents the pasurams of the Divya Prabandham by the authors/composers. There was something in your email I wished to have your opinion on. Why is it that the Divya Prabandham is commonly referred to as the Tamil Vedas? In my opinion, the Divya Prabandham and the Vedas have radically different content. While the Vedas attempt to provide deep insights into Metaphysics and self-realization, the Divya Prabandham attempts to glorify bhakthi and saranagati. The Vedas are science while the Divya Prabandham is devotion. How can they be synonymous? Please let me know your opinion on the above. Thanks, Jayaram Thiagarajan
