Meaning:
The revered AcArya RaamAnuja created and expounded the commentary on
Sage BadarAyaNa's Brahma sUtrams with the wish to protect his sishyAs. That
commentary on the Brahma sUtrams is celebrated as SrI BhAshyam and deals
with SArIraka SAstram. It demolished the arguments of paramata vAdins of
his time. When this SAstram was attacked after AcArya RaamAnuja's time by
the jolting thunderbolts of the words of the disputants, BhAshyakArar
(AcArya RaamAnuja) incarnated as SrInivAsa yatIndra MahA Desikan, the 25th
PaTTam Azhagiya Singar to defeat once again all of these egotistic and avaidika
para mata vAdins. May this apara avatArar of AcArya RaamAnujA be victorious!
Comments:
This is a MangaLa Slokam, where the 30th PaTTam Srimat Azhagiya Singar
(AsthAna kAlam 1837-1842 C.E) pays tribute to His AcAryan, the 25th PaTTam
Srimat Azhagiya Singar (AsthAna kAlam 1776-1811 C.E) with the ASrama
tirunAmam of SrI SrinivAsa yatIndra mahA Desikan. The Slokam states that
the Yatipati RaamAnuja was eager to protect his sishyAs from the sway of
avaidika, kudrshTi and kumati matams and created his commentary on Brahma
sUtrAs (SrI BhAshyam) to help them from being misled by the Para matams.
His divine commentary glorified the true meanings of SArIraka SAstram and
served as a hand lamp for those who sought the refuge of His sacred feet to
gain release from the cycles of births and deaths.

POKHARNI
incarnated with the wish to save all cetanams and lead them to the path of
liberation from the samsAric afflictions. He wished to instruct and correct those,
who sought refuge at His sacred feet. AcArya RaamAnuja taught the deep
meanings of SArIraka SAstram, the SAstram about the SArIrakan/ParmAtma and
broadcast that SAstram to one and all so that the people from the city to the
village (PaNDitAs and PaamarAs) can gain knowledge about this nivrtti mArga
upadesa (moksha) SAstram and benefit from it. AcArya RaamAnuja pulverized the
conflicting and misleading interpretations of Brahma sUtrAs advanced by haitukAs
(those who question every thing), kumatis (those with minds that distort the
truths) and kutarka vAdis (those who engage in illogical debates) and protected the
original and correct meanings of these Brahma sUtrAs provided by pUrvAcAryAs.
Through His sharp intellect and compassion, AcArya RaamAnuja made His SrI
sUkti of SrI BhAshyam available as delectable object of enjoyment for the
intelligent people of the world (bhUsurAs). As the kali yugam advanced and the
sanAtana dharmam got weakened, AcArya RaamAnuja incarnated once again on
this earth as SrI SrinivAsa YatIndra MahA Desikan in March 1776 C.E to
destroy the injurious weeds that grew among the good crops and chased away
the deluding nIca mata vAdams not rooted in VedAs (Veda bAhya matams). He
protected His sishyAs from sinking in the mud of saiva matam and from being
caught in the net of Kapila (sAnkhya) matam. He chased away the yoga SAstra
matam advanced by Brahma devan and spared his sishyAs from the snares of
mAyA vAdins (advaita darSanam). The 25th PaTTam, Srimat Azhagiya Singar,
SrI SrinivAsa YatIndra MahA Desikan was born few hundred years later as the
incarnation of AcArya RaamAnuja to teach SrI BhAshyam for the protection of
His sishyAs. Hail to SrI SrinivAsa yatIndra MahA Desikan!
