நெஞ்சே தினம் நினைப்போம் இராமானுசன் நாமங்களே रामानुजस्य चरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये (140 days to celebrate 1000th year of Bhagavat Ramanuja)

நெஞ்சே தினம் நினைப்போம்  
இராமானுசன் நாமங்களே
रामानुजस्य चरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये 
(140 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


12th Dec 2016
-----------------

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 can discuss the rare gesture of Bhagavath Ramanuja spending time with a poor brahmin lady and sdvising her to stay back in Thirukkolur. He patiently listens to  reasons she advances quoting instances from the lives of 81 great individuals. 


Adiyen had ana opportunity to listen to Sri Velukkudi Krishnan's discourse on "Thirukkolur Pen Pillai Varthai"  

When he visited Thirukkolur Divya kshetram,  Bhagavath Ramanuja meets a young lady who was about to leave Thirukkolur. Based on Nammazhwar's Pasuram, Bhagavth Ramanja knew people take extra-ordinary steps to gain entry to Thorukkolur. He was surprised by this lady's act and decides to talk to this lady and understand the reasons for leaving Thirukkolur. 


The lady,  Thirukkolur Ammal advances 81 reasons supporting her decision. He cites the examples of 81 people and says that she did not possess any of the great acts of kindness, compassion, devotion, sacrifice, dedication and so many other Human values exhibited by them. 


After listening, Bhagavath Ramanja admired her knowledge on Scriptures and the various incidences that she quoted. She convinces her that she is qualified to stay in Thirukkolur and visits her home and in a rare gesture part takes food prepared her and blesses her.


An attempt has been made to present the 81 incidences narrated by Thirukkolur Ammal in the form of a song.
