=============================================================== Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama: Sri Ramanuja's Sharanagati Gadyam by U.Ve. Dr. Sri M.A. Venkatakrishnan Swamy Time: Saturday, February 14, 2004, 9 AM CST. Bridge# : 1-702-835-5000 code : 91544# ==================================================== Come listen to what 'SHARANAGATI' means ! ==================================================== Swamy will start with the slokam and explain the meanings line by line. Sri MAV Swamy's explanations from the vyakyaanams and simple metaphorical meanings keeps us totally involved to enjoy/understand the deep concepts in this great work. Please inform your friends, relatives and all those who might be interested. ===================================================== Excerpts from the last upanyasam- Bhakti and Prapatti ===================================================== Last month Sri MAV Swami continued with the avatarikai of this great work. He went into detail of how the concept of bhakti can be easily explained to all but prapatti is hard to explain. Please note that Swamy Sri Ramanuja did NOT perform Sharanagati for the second time when HE composed this gadyam. It was only smaranam (chanting/contemplating) on the sharanagati already done, just like alwar did in the Tiruvaimozhi. He did it for us so we can undertstand the concepts.
