Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's Mumukshuppadi

Sutra:

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
Instead of just saying that he should accept this
means fully, why is sacrificing all other means 
("sarva dharmAn parityajya") being told?

If accepting the means is the body, then its parts
must also be explained. Giving up all other means
is that part.

For example, in performing certain rituals such
as Acamana, it has certain parts such as washing
one's hands and feet, etc. The Acamana cannot be
performed without doing these first. Similarly,
complete surrender cannot be done without 
following that part of it which is sacrifice of
all other means.
