Dear Sriman Venkataraghavan: Your essay is beautifully put together. One has to get a complete context of AchArya RaamAnujA's Vaibhavam to understand His " revolutionary" contribution . In your final paragraph, you identify one of the great contributions. I am sure that other BhakthAs will identify the top most contribution based on their own rasAnubhavams.That is a good thing to happen. Thanks Sri Krishna Kasyap for opening up the discussions to give us additional SmaraNam of Udayavar. The multi-facted genius of AchArya RaamAnujA has to be evaluated acros many of His contributions ; each of the "revolutionary" contributions act like the hands of the Lord (ahamaham ) competing with the other to help us SamsAris gain Moksha Siddhi. This topic should be kept open for many insights by bahkthAs of the list . As we go thru IrAmaanusa NoRRandhAthi, YathirAja sapthathi, YathirAja Vimsathi et al, we get insights . Ordering the most revolutionary one among the contributions identified by AchArya RaamAnujA's sishya Paramparai would be a challenging task and worthy of engagement mainly because of that effort will get us even closer to His Dhivya CahraNAravindhams. Thanks very much.
