a) ஸ்வாமி, அர்ச்சிராதிகதியில், நாம் வைகுந்தத்தை அடையும் பொழுது, நம் ஆசாரியனும், பரமாசாரியனும் எதிர் கொண்டு வரவேற்பர் என்று கூறப்பட்டுள்ளது.

எனில், ஆசாரிய- சிஷ்ய சம்பந்தம் , நித்யமாக வைகுந்தத்திலும் தொடருமா ?

மற்ற சம்பிரதாயங்கள் அல்லது மற்ற மார்க்கத்தின் மூலம், மோக்ஷம் அடைபவர்களுக்கு இது எவ்வாறு பொருந்தும், ஸ்வாமி?

b) ஸ்வாமி, நமக்கு பிராப்யமாகவும், பிராபகமாகவும் இருப்பது பகவானின் திருவடியா அல்லது ஆசாரியரின் திருவடியா ?

அடியேன் 🙏🏻

All spiritual matters are, in my opinion, based on belief passed on from acharya-sishya link.  In our Sri Vaishnava, questioning is not allowed.  What has been told by predessor has to be believed.  Where there is no questioning (positive way), truth cannot be revealed. 

For example, When Dhruva was flying on the Vishnu Loka Vimana, he was remembering about his mother’s status.  Immediately, Vishnudoot is showing Suneethi fllying in another Vimana.  Then, he is satisfied.  How can mother-son earthly relation continue in higher spiritual worlds.  After taking bath in Viraja nadhi, all our earthly / material samskaras are destroyed.  But, this incident does not prove that.  There are so many questions, which nobody will be able to explain.  NO ACHARYANS, NO UPANYASAKAR, NO SELF-PROCLAIMED PREAHERS are ready to accept ‘their ignorance’ on such issues.  They will somehow or the other justify or give some answer as they are identifying them with Srivaishnavasim and their teachings / preachings got as a legacy.  Identification with any philosophy, before exploring and experimenting yourself personally, will make you blind and blindly justify your path without any empirical proof.

My conclusion:

If you have belief in the existence of Lord Narayana, Chant Thirumanthiram with confidence leaving little time for material life.  The Lord’s naamaa will reveal the truth. No Acharyan, No Upanayaskar, No self-proclaimed Sri Vaishnava Speakers can clarify.

For example, When Dhruva was flying on the Vishnu Loka Vimana, he was worrying about his mother’s status. He never bothered about Uthman’s (his elder brother) or his step-mother (Suruchi) or his father (Uththaanapaada) bad staus.  Such is the impartial status of a Muktaatma!!!  Immediately, Vishnudoot is showing Suneethi fllying in another Vimana.  Then, he is satisfied.   How can mother-son earthly relation continue in higher spiritual worlds. How can he be partial to his step-mother (Suruchi, because of whom only he went to forest to do tapas – though it is in a negative way), his own elder brother (Uthaman, who never did any harm to Dhruva) and his father Uththaanapaada (who was indifferent towards him, but later on changed because of the outcome of Dhruva’s tapas).  Had he been a muktaatama, the same kindness or compassion, which he showed to his mother, should have been extended to Suruchi, Uththaman and Uththaanaapaada.   After taking bath in Viraja nadhi, all our earthly / material samskaras are destroyed.  But, this incident does not prove that. 

 

There are so many questions, which nobody will be able to explain.  NO ACHARYANS, NO UPANYASAKAR, NO SELF-PROCLAIMED PREAHERS are ready to accept ‘their ignorance’ on such issues.  They will somehow or the other justify or give some answer as they are identifying themselves with Srivaishnavasim and their teachings / preaching got as a legacy.  Identification with any philosophy, before exploring and experimenting yourself personally, will make you blind and blindly justify your path without any empirical proof.

My conclusion:

If you have belief in the existence of Lord Narayana as Muzhu Muthar Kadavul, Chant Thirumanthiram with confidence leaving little time for material life. Take Lord Narayana himself as Acharyan and implore Him to accept you as His Sishya. Arjuna, when he got the status of approved Sishya, got the Bhagavad Geetha preahing. The Lord’s naamaa will reveal the truth. No Acharyan, No Upanayaskar, No self-proclaimed Sri Vaishnava Speakers can clarify.
