நெஞ்சே தினம் நினைப்போம் இராமானுசன் நாமங்களே रामानुजस्य चरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये (152 days to celebrate 1000th year of Bhagavat Ramanuja)

நெஞ்சே தினம் நினைப்போம்  
இராமானுசன் நாமங்களே
रामानुजस्य चरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये 
(152 days to celebrate 1000th year of Bhagavat Ramanuja)

Let us begin our journey towards 1st May 2017, by recalling his life events, teachings, achievements, glory and hsi contribution to Srivaishavam and Visishtadwaitham



30th Nov 2016
-----------------

When any one wants to know about a guru, he needs to be introduced by someone who had greater understanding abou his work, teachings, glory etc. This time we learn about the Bhagavath Ramanuja's Gurus'.

Bhagavth Ramanuja strated his Gurukulam Under Yadava Prakasar. Bhagavth Ramanuja was brilliant and he leant vedic scriptures very fast and he even mastered the maenings. Bhagavth Ramanuja was not able to accept some of the explanations and meanings imparted by the Guru. The difference of opinion between him and the guru grew and Bhagavath Ramanuja became very popular. There was a plot to kill Bhagavth Ramanuja during a trip to Kasi but thanks to help of his cousin and the grace of Lord Vardaraja of Kanchi, Bhagavath Ramauja was saved and was ordained to perform Theertha Kainkaryam for Lord Vardaraja and under the tutelage of Thiukachchi Nambi ( Mahapurnar)

Coming under the fold of great Acharya depends on Purva Punya Palam. Bhagavath Ramanuja had the blessings of Nammazhwar, Nathamuni and Yamunacharya. All the three had a greater role in the fostering of this Jagathacharya. Yamunacharya had selected five Acharya to groom Bhagavath Ramanuja. Why five? The five were hand picked with a specific goal to focus one or two specific topic.  Yamaunacharya had great plans for Bhagavath Ramanuja. Bhagavath Ramanuja never gets to see Yamunacharya live. Yamunacharya's three fingers were folded when Bhagavath Ramanuja came to see the Guru before Anthim Samskar. 


When Bhagavath Ramanuja saw these curled fingers, he was able to grasp the three important tasks the Yamunacharya wanted him to accomplish.The tasks were

  • The names of Parasara and Veda Vyasa, should be commemorated on the earth by giving it to a person worthy to bear it.
  • Organize to get a commentary written on Tiruvaymozhi
  
  • Compose a commentary on Upanishads, Vedanta Sutras and Bhagavad Gita 

.
Once Bhagavath Ramanuja promised to fulfill these wishes of Yamunacharya, the three fingers straightened


Bhagavath Ramanuja accomplished these tasks during his life time.
