srImathE rAmAnujAya namah.
dear devotees,
a poster had asked a question of why there are many posts on nAlAyira
divya prabhandham vyAkhyAnams (periya thirumozhi and thiruvAymozhi
related) during the anadhyayana kAlam on some lists - especially when
the custom seems to be not to recite the nAlAyiram, and not do
anubhavam of the nAlAyira divya prabhandha vyAkhyAnams during this
time (with certain exceptions during the month of mArgazhi).
adiyEn cannot speculate on other lists. As far as the Ramanuja list
is concerned, here is why we are allowing the posts -
(i) According to some scholars, the non-recital of divya prabhandham
and non-anubhavam of nAlAyira divya prabhandham vyAkhyAnams certainly
is a custom being followed.
(ii) Some others have told us that the non-anubhavam of vyAkhyAnams
is not the custom, and in fact, anubhavam of vyAkhyAnams is
encouraged. We have seen several upanyAsams during this period that
quote extensively from our nAlAyira divya prabhandham and its
vyAkhyAnams (after all, what upanyAsam is possible without the
anubhavam of our AzhvArs?).
(iii) Given the above uncertainities, we really did not want to
impose the custom on our posters. We provided the guidance given by
the two scholars we solicited opinion from (srI vELukkudi svAmi and
srI VPS Varadhan svAmi), and we will leave it to the posters
discretion. After all, they may get guidance from scholars they know,
and they may have gotten the guidance that vyAkhyAna anubhavam is ok.
(iv) Bhagavad anubhavam comes through His krupa. If it is His krupa
that we get to enjoy bhagavad anubhavam via the posts of our posters
during this time, in the absence of a clear cut rule, we do not want
to stand in the way of bhagavad anubhavam.
adiyEn rAmAnuja dAsan,
varadhan
