Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's Mumukshuppadi

Sutra:
184. unakkE nAmALseyvOm ennumpadiyEyAga vENum.

Meaning:
The thought that the service is done for His pleasure
should happen.

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
Nevertheless, the primary meaning of the nama: is the
removal of the thought that it is done for the soul's 
benefit. Therefore, it is that prayer which should be
in the mind when reciting it. When the service is 
performed, the thought that it is for the benefit of
both the soul and the Lord should be avoided. Instead
it should be performed for His pleasure alone ("unakkE
nAm AtseyvOm"). Nammazhvar too said "thanakkEyAga 
enaik koLLumIdhE".
