All the other sites are dedicated to the Azhwaars(the 12 great Gurus or teachers who propagated ethics and values of Srivaishnavam in poetic scripts named Divyaprabhandham which is purely in Tamil), Aacharyans (the Gurus), Divya Prabhandam, Divya Kshetrams(the sacred places or sanctuaries where the temples of Lord Shri Mahavishnu are located), Raamaanujaa(a great scholar), Sri Desikar(a great scholar who propagated VISHISHTAATHVAITHAM and the founder Guru of Shri Ahobila Muttam), Emperumaal (Lord Vishnu Himself), All sorts of Srivaishnavam materials such as slokhas, Vedas, Temples, Gods and Goddesses. But none of these sites give the reasons and inner meaning for practicing the rituals. If rationale thoughts are just posted, the younger generation will surely understand, benefit and appreciate it. They might even follow the system more authentically. Here I am not giving any versus or slokhas, but only giving the inner meaning of Srivaishnavam culture and its practices.

In these pages, I try to give a fair picture of Srivaishnavam, Pride, Rituals and its reasons & beliefs in brief. In simple words the rationale behind practices of Srivaishnavam. There may be some points here unacceptable to some, might be someone patting me , a few even against this in Toto.


Whatsoever it may, I am honestly trying my level best to be impartial and post here in these pages whatever I learnt from my Guru, my father and the Society in General.


If these columns get some value, let the praise go to the Lord Srimann Naaraayana, The Creator of this Universe.


If any mistakes and misquotes found, then I am solely responsible for the lapse, and sincerely apologize for the same.


Readers and surfers may please sign my 'Guest Book' and send in your comments and criticism. This will help me in revising & modifying and improving these pages/contents accordingly.


For the needy one, Tharppana Sankalpams in Tamil and English are given. Please follow the links and download the fonts if you want it in Tamil.


Frequently I am questioned by curious young persons from our Srivaishnavites culture, for explanations and methodology of this Sect's routine practices. Within my limited knowledge, I try to convince them of the available facts


Whatever I learnt and within my limited knowledge I gained through some studies, I am passing it here through these pages. 

HAPPY SURFING
