Srimathe ramanujaya Namaha
 
Dear Sri Padmanabhan swamy,
 
Your campaigning for thirukurungudi is great.  Since unfortunately it is parthasarathi's wish to stay as the opposition and by accident put adiyen as the campaigning authority for his side let me put forth some points. 
 
Note: Dear Bhagavatas, Other than the deep bhakthi towards Parthasarathi/Thiruvallikeni adiyen is least eligible to get into campaigning against well knowledgable great bhagavata like Sri Padmanabhan swamy.  But it is parthasarathi's greatness to win with just illiterate/ignorant souls like adiyen talking for him.
 
First of all, Sri Vaishnava nambi gained his vaishnavathvam only due to Swamy Ramanuja who was blessed to this world only by our dear Parthasarathi (Swamy emperumanar is considered even as a avathara of Parthasarathi emperuman)
 
We all become Vaishnavas only after getting the 3 great rahasya manthras from our acharyan and surely all of us know that the 3rd of the rahasyams, Charama slokam was given only by our dear geethAcharyan who stands even today indicating to his divine feet in the beautiful attire of a divine charioteer.  So but for parthasarathi, Sri Vaishnavism would have been in total darkness. 
 
Beauty lies in heart.  Can you show any other emperuman who for the sake of his devotee accepted so much wounds on his face and till today stands with the same marks? Today we all try to make ourselves beautiful by doing plastic surgery to cover even a small cut mark.  But Parthasarathi was not interested in a plastic surgery but felt that the beauty lied only in showing his sowlabhyam (indicated by the marks).  And amazingly, even the marks gives Parathasarathi's thirumugam a divine beauty ("kannanennum karundeivam").  Black beauty.  You know what black signifies in our sampradayam.  Karunai/kArunyam. Only the clouds that are dark in colour shower a lot of rain for the welfare of one and all without any differentiation.  Similarly only that karundeivam- Parthasarathi showers his grace on one and all without any differentiation.  He showed his paratvam when he said the charama slokam and showed his sowlabhyam while tied by yesodha.  What other poorthi do we really need?
 
Sure Parthasarathi is the "thuyar kalai devu" even for the brahma rudras. Our poorvacharyas say, " In Ramavatara, the greatest mistake emperuman did was to not washing out all his enemies totally but leaving out one or two here and there that created all the problems.  But in Krishnavatara emperuman didn't commit that mistake again so he washed out all his enemies." Rudran and other devas while they are filled with sAtvika gunam they consider themselves as bhagavatas but the very same deva sometimes filled with rajasa tAmasa gunas even fight against emperuman.  So is it wise to keep them beside? When they came for help emperuman rendered the necessary help due to his ultimate compassion to one and all.  But after that it is only wise to send them away.  Today the thirukurungudi divya desam is in trouble only because nambi did that mistake of keeping sivan beside him "pakkam nirka nindra".  If we Srivaishnavas are not awake probably that Srivaishnava Nambi may even loose his prominence in that divya desam like Govindarajan (chidambaram/thirupathi) and ThirumAliruncholai Azhagar today.  If slowly all Divya desams face such problems what is the state of Srivaishnavas? Isn't it our responsibility to act quickly and save our divya desams from commercialisation and corruption?

Dear srEvaishNavites,
 
Continuing the camapign for thrukkuRungudi:
                                                            paNbar
 
Going by the magnaminity: sri nambi was not happy in just removing the hurdles of shivA -thuyar kaLai dhEvu- but gave him shelter by his side and honoured him. This being a great temperement and quality is highly appreciated by thirumangai mannan as
"pakkam niRka ninRa paNbar vUr" periya thiru-mozhi 9-
 
Going by the eternality of the divya-dEsam:
'mannu kuRungudiyAi'
Sri periyAzhwAr has declared that this divya dEsam as a permanent feature even if the praLayam take away all other places, this divya-dESam is likely to exist surviving the praLayam.That is why the adjective
"mannu kuRungudiyAi" periyazhwAr thiru-mozhi 1-5-8
The vyAkyanam:
'praLayathukkum azhiyAdha thirukkuRungudiyilEA vardhikkiRavanEA"
 
 
 
Going by the unforgettable nature:
First full-fledged thiru-voi-mozhi-p pAsuram dedicated to thirukkuRungudi:
 
the end of the first ten of thiru-voi-mozhi witnessed AzhwAr exclaiming on what grounds can he forget nambi?
Can he forget because He is incomplete- no He is paripUrNan.
Can be forget Him because He is not superior- NO.
Can he forget as He is not pretty- no He is full of beauty.
The Edu is wonderful in this regard.
