Sri: Dear Ms Suresh Sataari is be assumed to be a representation of Swami Nammalawar. Swami Desikan's Rangantaha Paduka Shasranamam will give you a detailed explanation of this shataari. Please read the link below slokams 21-30 to understand this depth. This translation has been beautifully provided by Sri V Sadagopan Mama. http://www.sadagopan.org/srps/srps2.htm With regards to meaning of Srivaishnavism. it refers to the joint worshipers of Sri(laksmi) and Vishnu together. Previously, there are instances of separate worshipers of Narayana and Lakshmi . Swami Desikan beautifully summarizes this in his sri stuthi. tvaame vahuH katichi dapare tvatpriyam lokanaatham kiM tairantaH kalaha malinaiH kiMchi duttiirya magnaiH | tvat saMpriityai viharati harau sammukhiinaam shrutiinaaM bhaavaa rooDhau bhagavati yuvaaM dampatii daivatam n: Meaning : Some worship you (Sri) as the supreme lord. Others worship your consort as the supreme lord. The true is that both of you as the divine couple jointly run this universe.
