Let us dwell on the twenty-first Pasuram of Ramanuja Nootrandhdhi.

In this pasuram, Amudhanar discusses the relatioship between Yamunacharya (Alavandhar) and Bhagavath Ramanuja.  Amudhanar decribes Yamunacharya as one who strictly adheres to righteous path by observing anushtanams and following codes dictated by Sastras. As per instructions from his guru Nathamuni, Yamunacharya had selected Bhagavath Ramanuja to be the future leader to establish visitadwaitham and had appointed five Acharyas to guide Bhagavat Ramanuja on various subjects. Amudhanar says BhagavathRamanuja,  who was for very fortunate to have had the blessings of the lotus feet of Yamunacharya, saved him and brought him under his fold. Amudhanar says with Bhagavath Ramanuja's protection,  there in need for him to sing the glory of ordinary mortals with Ahamkara
