|| May I be eternally associated with
the devotees of maNavAla mAmunigaL, who have crossed the lures of
material pleasures and pride, to whom the preceptor is the means and
the end, who have mastered the essence of all scriptures, who have no place for material profit and lust, who are well-wishers of all life and who have conquered anger and greed.
Purport: The
srIvachanabhUshaṇa divyasAstram teaches several important srIvaishNava
tenets. It teaches the need for AthmaguNams - the need for restraint,
the importance of learning the esoteric essence of the scriptures from
the preceptor. It also teaches the need for detachment from worldly
pleasures and to have love for bhagavadh vishayam. It teaches us to
exhibit compassion and patience towards all, especially towards those
who harm us. It concludes its message with the teaching of anthimOpAyam
through "AchArya abhimAnamE uththArakam" where the means and end are both
identified with the preceptor. These and more, taught in cryptic form
by piLLai lOkAchArya, were lucidly explained by maNavALa
mAmunigaL. mAmunigaL himself says that it is rare to find
mahAthmAs who follow the word and spirit of srIvachanabhUshaNam. Through
the above stanza, we pray that we bear eternal association with the
lotus feet of such resplendent followers of mAmunigaL who are
adhikAris of srIvachanabhUshaNam. |  srIsailEsa dhayApAthram dhIbhakthyAdhi guNArNavam yathindhra pravaNam vandhE ramyajAmAtharam munim I surrender unto srI maNavALa mAmunigaL who is the holder of the mercy of thiruvAimozhi piLLai, an ocean of jnAnam, bhakthi, etc., who has unlimited love for yathirAjar.
