Srivats Swamy,

According to Nahi nindA nyAyam one God can be considered superior. It doesn’t mean other God are inferior. With Ref to Mukkur Swamy Upanyasam.

The point they say 64 qualities this & that to substantiate is not correct. As if Perumal is deficient of something.

The inferior thing is what we are saying need to be pointed out as wrong.

Bhu VarAhar showed big roopam. Maha Varaha:. Vamanan showed Trivikrama roopam “Ulagalandha Perumal”, even the Meena avathAram became big in size.

It’s not about the size it’s about the supremacy. In fact such big roopi Krishna coming as baby is what liked by most. Srimath Bhagavatham is cherished because of sowlabhyam & sowsheelyam.

Let Krishna be the source we are not denying it. Let Narasimha come out of Krishna nothing wrong. In Sri Rama avathAram , SriRam says “I can destroy the world just by. my nails, if I want to” thinking of Narasimha.

Here all avathArams of Vishnu are supreme. Irrespective of veeryam showcased. That’s the point.

SriRama being my personal God doesn’t mean Krishna is inferior.

SulabhAya, susheelAya Venkatesaya Mangalam

Sri:

Respect is different Swamy. We respect them too but we don’t endorse their ideology.

Prabhupada Swamy says anyone can become Brahmin. Only adherance makes a Brahmin not birth. An Engineer’s son is not an Engineer by birth is his logic. Do you agree?

Regarding celebration of avathArams, I don’t have answer. I leave it to Sri Velukkudi Krishnan Swamy to answer. I have the same question as you do. Do we give that much importance to Parashuram as we give to Krishna?

One solid reason, i could think of, they (SriRam & Sri Krishna) are nearby in time incarnations. They are in our history. Ithihasam is closer to us than PurANams.

Vikram Swami,

When their philosophy and guru paramparai itself is different, where does the question of one endorsing the other comes? Neither of us needs to endorse each other.

Adiyen also vaguely remembers Velukkudi Swami mentioning in one of his discourses that we can follow any tatvam (within the vedic ambit) but not in isolation. We must take refuge in a guru and follow the paramparai. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong!

Even I am not comfortable with certain aspects of their sampradAyam. For instance, I have read that Srila Sri Prabhupada has made personal attacks on ‘Sri Adi Sankara Bhagavatpada’ using an unparliamentary term. I am not able to accept that term for a champion, who paved way for the renaissance of Vedic heritage. But suddenly I start thinking if there is any reason for me to worry about it unless I follow that sampradAyam!

On a different note, no sampradAyam encourages free inquiry and questioning beyond a point. Would you disagree? Here again, Velukkudi Swami has told us that our lifetime may not be sufficient to do an analysis of a siddhantam from scratch, reconstruct everything, and gain a complete understanding unless the divine grace helps us do so, hence most of us trust our guru lineage and moving forward.

So are ISKCONites!

Srimate Raamnuajaye namaha,

Would like to share an interesting perspective I heard from a vaishnava on this topic.

” Krishna is like president at home, in casuals..Perumaal is like president in office in full office attire”

“We must take refuge in a guru and follow the paramparai. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong!”

Our Swamy is correct. That answered everything.

Guru Parampara lineage is important. Self made philosophies are not appreciated. The point of endorsing comes because even if it is new, it has to be approved by elders.

Valmiki Maharishi got approval from Narada Maharishi & Brahma before writing Srimath Ramayana. Brahma says there will be no exaggeration in the verses. Yesterday only found out from APN Swamy’s Upanyasam in YouTube. 18 arthams that Swamy Ramanuja learnt in the form of Srimath Ramayanam.

Some new age kids say “Ramayana being kAvya is exxagerated by Valmiki”.

Anyone cannot undergo BrahmOpadesham from anyone. Why Sant nyAneshwar being realized soul went on to get BrahmOpadesham from Brahmin elders? What is so great about being a Brahmin? That’s the point.

Sant made Buffalo 🐃 recite Veda. Still he was insisting on janeyu (poonal). Why?

A real Brahmin is not a veshaDhAri or a veshaDhAri alone is not a Brahmin.

We always welcome Bhakthi in any form but tradition cannot be compromised. We ought to be ready to take up any life for our sampradhayam based on our Acharya’s orders. It’s a matter of time.

Is Krishna the retired president? 😊
Dasanudasan

Srimate Raamanujaye Namaha,
Swamy I don’t understand the context of why you are referring to as ‘retired’?
Krishna behaves with his devotees as a president relates to his family members at home..
Perumaal behaves with his devotees as a president relates to his office staff.( there are exceptions.as friends and family members can visit his office too)

This is a broad explanation..Not to be taken literally..the point conveyed is the roles are different though HE is the same personality.

This is over hype Swamy. Krishna is Perumal. Perumal is Krishna. Appo Ramar yar Swamy Assistant Vice-Presidenta?

My question is, who is Perumal? It is a Tamil term. It includes all forms of Krishna. Including Para Vasudevan.

Our NaichyAnusandhAnam determines if we are office staff or friends & family.He is the SAME in any form.

Nee Indran nu irumappu la irundha garva Bhangam panna dhan seivar.

If Indran comes as nAyen vandhu adaindhen Perumal keeps him on the lap.

Who should fear they or us?

They are doing wrong, why you fear?

BrahmOpadesham ku mariyadhai kidaiyadha?

Vittaldas Maharaj Swamy says “It starts with seemandham, jata karma even before the sishu is born”

“A Brahmin is made even before birth”

That’s why am against inter-caste marriages
