Annamacharya Krithi On Bhagawath Ramanuja Extolling his greatness and noble qualities

Annamacharya Krithi On Bhagavath Ramanuja 

Extolling his greatness and noble qualities

Sri Tallapaka Annamacharya composed over 32,000 songs on Lord of the Seven Hills, Thiruvengamaudaiyan. He took to Ramanuja saampradayam, with the blessings of Sri Satagopa Yateendra Maha Desikan of the Ahobila Mutt who performed his Samasrayanam. Sri Ramanuja's Visishthdwaitha principles, Artha Panchaka tatvams are well embedded in his compositions. Sri Annamacharya had great reverence and respect for Bhagavath Sri Raamanuja and composed two follwing compositions on the greatness Of Sri Ramanuja and service that he rendered for the upliftment of Srivaishavism and its followers.

1) Unnthonnadu Udayavaru
2) Gatulanni Kilamaina Kaliyuga Mamadunu   

In this posting we will discuss and Listen to Unnthonnadu Udayavaru. Sri Annamacahrya prefers to use the the Tiltle Udayar for Sri Ramanuja in this composition , as that title was conferred by Namperumal Himself. Sri Annamacahrya goes on to laud the greatness of Bhagavath Sri Ramanuja and he addesses him as Udayavaru and considers him as the noblest of the noble. Annamacharya says that Udayavar was an expert in all sastras and scriptures in all the worlds and took efforts to absorb them and and made it available to through his writings.  Annamacharya says Udayavar  comprehended veda,upanishad and Brahmma Sutra etc. and being an able administrator ensures the rules and regulations follow the scriptures for Temple administration and Nithya Kaikaryams.  Annamacharya also says that Sri Ramanuja was classic example for Vishnu devotee and un paralleled Bakthi towards him.  Annamacharya says that Udayavar is supreme Acharya by virtue of his knowlwdge. Annamacharya considers him as equivalent to lord Venkateswara on earth as he is vested with Powers to confer moksha.
