True .
I feel that our philosophy is strongly built
on the foundation that Lord sriman nArAyaNA is the Lord and all others are
soul encompassing Him -sarEra sarEri.
Hence, though other devotees may be in the
list, I think when we talk about our theology, we have to be crystal clear
in this regard and no question of dilution. Of course, there is no intention of
offending others. At the same time, there should be no compromise on our
principles on this ground.
I would like to quote thirumazhsai AzwAr 's pAsuram
in this regard
" kallAdhavar ilangai kattazhitha,
kAguthan allAl oru dheivan yAnilEan,
pollAdha dhEvaraith dhEvarallArai,
thiruvillAth dhEvarai thErEan min dhEvu" nAn mugan thiruvandhAdhi
53.
Everybody knows that there are innumerable
pAsuram-s which again and again reiterate the indispensable of surrendering us
unto Him and unto Him alone. Hence, without attracting the question of
offending others, we have to reiterate the basic postulate of our philosophy as
shown by AzhwAr-s.
