Dear SrImathi Geeta Chakravarthy :

Similar questions have come to moderators over 
the past few years. There is genuine interest on
the part of VaishNavaas . 

There has been some reluctance to discuss these 
topics in an impersonal medium like the internet .
One's own AchAryAs are the best source for 
clarifications on the main and subtle points. 

Both the SampradhAyams are like the two eyes 
for a VishNavan. Both have to be revered and treasured.
We are all Raamanuja DaasAs.

I suggest that we keep these discussions off line .

There is an excellent chapter in the recently released 
book by SrIman Anbil Swamy on this topic.He walks
a very careful line to sumamrize at a high level
about the 18 differences between the two sampradhAyams.
Please refer to that book ( Pages 692-706).

With best wishes ,
V.Sadagopan

  Subject: Re: [Oppiliappan] Number of times of prostrating - differerence


  I would also like to request the erudite group to give a brief overview on 
Thenkalai and Vadakalai sampradayams. When and how the deviation started? What 
are the key differences and why (in rituals, practice, temples devoted to each, 
etc.) 

  If this subject is already posted somewhere, please advice.

  Dasi,
  Geeta Chakravarti

    Swamin:

    Adiyen follows Sri Desika Sampradayam.  Adiyen is having a doubt about
    the differnce in number of times of prostrating by people following
    Vadakalai and Thenkalai sampradyam. Vadakalai people prostrate twice
    or four times etc. where as Thenkalai people do it only once or
    thrice.  Adiyen will be obliged if swamin can explain the
    significance/meaning and differnce of prostrating between these two
    sampradyams.
