Respected Swami, How will we discuss, if we keep apologizing, saying our posts are "blabberings" and frequently writing "forgive"? May be some "sAttvika ahankAram" is needed:) All of us, including self, use words like SEshatvam, kainkaryam etc. interchangeably. However, when it comes to SEshatvam vs pAratantryam, we need to go into what the terms originally mean. I referred to Manavala MamunigaL's commentary for mumukshuppadi and explanation of Sriman T.K.Gopaplacharya Swami. In that, Sriman T.K. swami defines what is SEshatvam. He says it is remaining as bhOgyam for PerumAL, like pushpam, chandanam etc. PirAtti's and other dEvIs' SEshatvam to PerumAL is explained in SrI guNa ratna kOSam of Bhattar in similar terms (bhOgyA vAmapi nAntarIyakatayA pushpAngarAgai: samam...)
