Let us dwell on the tenth Pasuram of Ramanuja Nootrandhdhi.

Poigai Azhwar,  with Earth, Ocean and Sun as tools lights the lamp to dispel the darkness  and offers Mudhal Thiruvandhadhi so that he can see and feel Sriman Narayana.  Bhuthathazhwar uses Love, Zeal, Friendhip,  focus on Bhagavath Vishayam as tools to light up Gyana Vilakku. Pei Azhwar by this time gets the benefit of seeing Sriman Narayan in Parmapadam and starts describing What he sees in Moodram Thiruvandhadhi.

In this tenth pasuram of Ramanuja Nootrandhadhi, Amudhanar describes the relationship between Baghavath Ramanuja and Peyazhwar.

Amudhanar says that Bhagavath Ramanuja worships golden feet of  Peyazhwar and holds his third Thiruvandhadhi in high esteem. After Poigai and Bhdhathazhwar lighted the lamps to dispel the darkess of knowledge in the world and inside the heart, Peyazhwar had the darshan of Lord of Thirukovalur Divyadesam along with his consort and described his experience in the form of Third Thiruvandhadhi starting with " “திருக்கண்டேன்”  pasuram. Amudhanar says that those who serve the lotus feet of learned Vaishanavite scholars who worshipped Bhagavat Ramanuja are indeed very fortunate and meritorius devotees.
