Sri:

When listening to our Swamy’s, upanyasam on VishistAdvaitam, Swamy was telling Dwaitham, Advaitham, VishistAdvaitam all three are true only.

If that is the case,
Do we get Moksham by nyAnam or
Bhakthi roopApanna nyAnam?

Either one can be true correct?

We accept Moksham is by nyAnam but requires subservience to Sriman Narayanan

How to understand a Moksham gained by propelling AthmA GyANam vs Moksham gained by bhakthi?

Is AthmA GyANam also part of Bhakthi according to VishistAdvaitam?

Main question:
If Athma GyANam by self alone is not sufficient, what is the point of such infinite Athma GyAnam?

Why Swayam PrakAshika AthmA not teaching Bhakthi?

Srimate Raamanujaye Namaha,

Swamy sharing some possible thoughts on the 2 questions.

“If Athma GyANam by self alone is not sufficient, what is the point of such infinite Athma GyAnam?”

It is a good to have prerequisite to practice and follow Bhakthi easily.

“Why Swayam PrakAshika AthmA not teaching Bhakthi?” 

The atma is a like a jewel covered by ignorance, once that is removed the natural quality of Bhakthi will also be seen naturally perhaps.

Then AthmA gyAnam should alone be sufficient but KaivalyArthis are not considered as equal to mukhtAthmAs. Why?

Have heard that aatma Gyanam alone cannot be pursued to reach 100 % percent perfection. Some element of Bhakthi or dependence on Lord is required for one to fully uncover from ignorance.

This sounds contradictory, if Athma gyAnam is infinite, the below 100% argument doesn’t stand a ground.

I attained a state of bliss but yet I am unaware I am a servant of Sriman Narayana!!!

It means the state of “so-called” bliss is not a complete state in itself.

This defies AthmA knowledge is infinite.
