Dear bhAgavatas,
Recently, the idea that the first Jeeyar of
Ahobila Mutt, Sri AdhivaN Satakopa Jeeyar, was
the one who initiated Sri Manavala MamunikaL
into sanyAsAshramam, was mentioned in a sister
Srivaishnava group. As this position is not
not accepted by all scholars or sampradhayins,
adiyEn had sent a response to that group. I am
forwarding the same note, as one of general
interest, to this group as well.
Yatindra Pravana Prabhavam which gives us the
vaibhavam of MamunikaL states the following
"... appOthE thamakku sabrahmachAriyAna satakOpa
jIyar sannidhiyilE ezhuntharuLi ..."
It is to be noted here that it is not stated
that MamunikaL took sanyAsAshramam from AdhivaN
Satakopa Jeeyar. Instead it is said that he took
sanyAsAshramam from SatakOpa Jeeyar and that this
Jeeyar was his fellow disciple (sabrahmachAri).
The latter should make it clear that it could
not have been AdhivaN Satakopa Jeeyar. He was
not a co-disciple of Mamunikal, under
Thiruvaymozhip Pillai.
So, who was this Satakopa Jeeyar from whom
MamunikaL took sanyasAshramam? This was the 7th
pattam Jeeyar of Azhvar Thirunagari Emperumanar
Jeeyar matam, who indeed was Thiruvaymozhip
Pillai's disciple along with MamunikaL, at
Azhvar Thirunagari. His name is recorded as
"emperumAnAr kOyil sathkOpa jIyar" in periya
thirumudi adaivu.
That he gave MamunikaL sanyasAshramam is recorded
in his vaibhavam as well as in his vAzhi thirunAmam
"azhagiya maNavALa munikku Asiramam aLiththa pirAn
vAzhiyE".
