நெஞ்சே தினம் நினைப்போம்
இராமானுசன் நாமங்களே
रामानुजस्य चरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये
(129 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 his contribution to Srivaishavam and Visishtadwaitham
When any one wants to know about a guru, he needs to be introduced by someone who had greater understanding about his work, teachings, glory etc. This time we learn about him through
Arthi Prabandham composed by Manavala Mamaunigal.
Manavala Mamunigal had the distinction of being blessed with "Sri Sailesa Dayapaartram" thanian by none other than Lord Ranganatha. He had close proximity to Lord Ranganatha. He strongly believed that that Bhagavath Ramanuja who was conferred the power to grant Moksha is the only dependable source to recommend him a moksham. Such was his guru bakthi. He decides to plead with Yathiraja.
Arthi Prabhandham was the very last composition of Manavala Mamunigal reflecting on the the glory and compassion of Bhagavath Ramanuja. Mamunigal appeals to Yathiraja to help him to shed his mortal coil and bless him with a darshan of Sriman Narayana on the wings of Peraia thiruvadi
Arthi Prabhandham consists of 60 pasurams and is classic example of Manavala Manunigals mastery of Tamil Poetry composition. He has used most of commonly and uncommonly used meters of Tamil Poetry in these 60 pasurams

Manavala Mamunigal celebrates the glorious star of thiruvAdhirai when SrI rAmAnuja appeared in this world. When he was born in the earth, a lot of different things happened for good. The philosophies that were earlier misinterpreting vEdhas were destroyed. kali started to shake and feared that it would not get a place to live when SrI rAmAnuja will be there. Earth, the dhivya dhESams in it, the citizens of those dhivya dhESams everyone and everything was happy as they will be relieved on their burden when SrI rAmAnuja appears. Such a divine SrI rAmAnuja was born in SrIperumbUthUr, a place surrounded by beautiful ponds that has lots of red fish. It is a place that has the charm of a beautifully constructed city. What a glorious day indeed.
