Swamy,

Adiyen usually don’t promote other channels in kinchit website.

Just like Andavan & Ahobilam are two different entities even though same Sampradhayam.

Adiyen once shared Krishna Premi Anna upanyasam on Radha & Samruddhi based on his new rare book upa Bhagavatham/Puranam “Brindavana Mahathmyam”.

Adiyen got fitting reply that “It is a different Sampradhayam” so understood it’s not applicable under Kinchit branding!

Same applied for Iskcon upanyasam. Then understood we like only branded items we are not really Krishna concious but we talk as if we are!!!!

There are many learned here to prove my point.

Please search for “Rare interview of Himalayan Yogi” in YouTube. You will stumble upon the Stivaishnava Yogis with Thiruman.

Vikram Swamy,

Dhanyosmi for providing the keyword. Each sampradaya people have their own svabhaavam. Adiyen’s opinion is “It is better to get hurt by A golden needle, than to get hurt by A Brass needle”. But as our Swamy told “Avar avarkku vandhal dhan theriyum”. So either argument is correct. Let us not think much about whether what we did was right or wrong. Let’s keep going.

Adiyen

Ok Swamy

Sri:

The video may talk about Sri Anna’s followers only for the purpose of that book which was released. Technically bhakthi comes on the one who propagates Sath Vishayam.

I am Velukkudi Krishnan bhaktha as he propagates Krishna. It’s Guru Bhakthi.

Sri Anna is Periya VachAn Pillai Vamsam.

Not sure how many of us know about it. In fact we all follow VyKyAna Chakravarthy Periya VachAn Pillai Swamy’s interpretations.

The unfortunate part of our posts are we never discussed about Radha or Samruddhi or Brindavana Mahathmyam book.

That post discussed about Radha’s bhakthi where I mentioned about her so she came to me via that video.

What is wrong with us? Who are Sri Anna’s followers ? All Krishna Bhakthas right?

Are we not Krishna Bhaktha?

What did Azhwar say?
“I will surrender to one who accepts Hari even if pulayar, I will not accept anyone who disregards Hari even if he is a Brahmin”

The video was rare because I have never seen Premi Anna claiming as “Yogeeshwaran”. There is something unique in that video as well as the book.

Sri Anna was into yoga and had Krishna Prathyaksham. He himself revealed in book “BhAgavatha Dharmam” many years back.

Because of his lineage PerumAl would have come to him easily. His parents & grandparents punyam.

Not sure what else to say. We forum have same reaction for Iskcon upanyasam.

Swamy Velukkudi himself referred a book on Iskcon interpretation of Gita or something. Search this forum Bhakthas will know.

We have to take good & leave the bad. That’s all.

There are terms such as follow / regard / respect / admire that can be used to show reverence towards someone. But bakthi is at much higher level. Hope everyone knows about this and I am not competent enough to describe.

Even surrendering need not bring bakthi.

https://srisrianna.com/avatar/

I am quoting the following statement, as the only way to attain motcham, from the website, for others to decide.

“Sri Anna, in all His discourses highlights that Hari Nama sankeertanam is the only, but sure way to get across this turmoil of earthly life.”.

This clearly shows that he is not considering Ramanujar sambandham for motcham, though he is from acharya lineage.

We have seen / heard several who claim themselves to be God / avatar.

In this website it is mentioned, Sri. Anna has incarnated in this world and an avatar.

Based on the following statement (from the website), I do not know whether his bakthas consider him to be God.

“Like how Brahman can’t be explained in words, so is THE GREAT PHENOMENON – Sri Sri Anna. HE is to be EXPERIENCED”.

Every one goes by their own judgement. If someone wants to consider one as avatar or God and want to show bakthi, I will not come in their way. It is after all his prerogative. At the same time, if some one has different view, he can not be insisted upon. I only wished us to be devotees of Lord Krishna only and not insisted.

I have gone through this link, before I posted my comment 4 days back, in the other thread. I did not want to post in detail, but now circumstances force me.

Regardless of what I have mentioned, I should say that I have respects for him and his works, which is a different point altogether.

One of my relative and his gosti was invited to perform bajan by anna for about a week and was given to understand that they were looked after well.

I do not want to continue further in this thread, as I feel it is not proper.

Admin : This post is just a reply and if it is felt inappropriate, my posts in this thread can be deleted.

Kambandasan swamy,

Happy to note your response after a long time, which prompted me to mention my understanding w.r.to this point.

In the opening verses of SriBashyam, Ramanujar says a spiritual aspirant need to do inquiry into Brahmam. In the upanyasam on SriBashyam by our swamy explains in detail on this point on exploration before taking the path. 

You are thinking of people taking up Ramanujar sambandham without validation. But, in the general population, will this be alright?.

Dhanyosmi Kambandasan Swamy.

“one who is trying to validate everything before surrendering will endlessly keep trying”

Super
