Dear Sri Adisesh IyengAr :

Thozhappar was a famous VidhvAn at
the time of Sri Adhi VaNN SaThakOpa
Jeeyar ( the Founding Jeeyar of Ahobila
Matam) .
 
He sought the sacred feet of Adhi VaNN
SaThakOpa Jeeyar , recieved Pancha SamskArams 
and performed Grantha ChAtushtya ( SrI BhAshyam,
GeethA BhAshyam , Bhagavath Vishayam and 
SrIMath Rahasya Traya Saaram ) from His
AchAryan , who recognized the scholarship 
and AchArya Bhakthi of Thozhappar . 
 
SrI Adhi VaNN SathakOpa Jeeyar asked 
Thozhappar to compose a few dharma sAstra
granthams for the benefit of SrI VaishNavAs .
Thozhappar placedthe niyamanam of his AchAryan
on his siras and created 8 granthams :
 
1.Gruhya Ratnam 2. GhaNDa BhUshaNam
3. Smruti RatnAkaram 4. PitrumEdha Saaram
5. SudheevilOchanam ( Commentary on # 5)
6.DaSa NirNayam 7. AaSoucha satakam 
and 8. AaSouhca nirNayam .
 
Adhi VaNN SaThakOpa Jeeyar was 
immensely pleased with Thozhappar's 
Kaimakryam and its quality and honored 
his sishyan with the Birudhu of 
"Vaidhika Saarvabhoumar". 
 
The  seed for much of what we
know as Ahnika Granthams started
from Thozhappar based on his
Vast knowledge of Dharma Saastrams .
 
Other Azhagiya Singars enlarged
that corpus of Knowledge . 
 
NamO SrI NrisimhAya ,
V.Sadagopan
