நெஞ்சே தினம் நினைப்போம்
இராமானுசன் நாமங்களே
रामानुजस्य चरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये
(130 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 hm 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

In this pAsuram, maNavALa mAmunigaL says, “Long live SrI rAmAnuja (1) destroyed the six trees of philosophies that stood outside the boundaries of vEdhas and explained the principles (2) scared away the miscreants of the vEdhas (3) annihilated kali and its impact without leaving any trace of it in this world (4) restored, streamlined and ordered the treasures of SrIrangam (5) gave us the true meaning of vEdhas through his “SrI bhAshyam” (6) spread the essence of thiruvAimozhi to the interested masses and (7) appeared in the glorious SrIperumbUthUr. Long live SrI rAmAnuja’s beautiful lotus feet, the sole refuge for everyone”.
