      AdiyEn has some doubts and would be blessed if the scholars of this egroup does anugraham and clears them. 

1)     It is well known that Prapatti is the only practical means of ensuring mOksham. We see that there are many Bhakthaas born as Srivaishnavas somehow miss their chance for getting Samasrayanam and prapatti done under the grace of a sadAcharya. What will be the fate of such souls? Some of them, because of the way they must have been brought up, are not even aware of Prapatti. Does emperuman give them another srivaishnava birth? Or just like there are many queues to have His darshan in Tirupathi He simply accepts them?

 

2)     What is the criterion for getting a sri vaishnava birth?

 

3)     We say that the ancestors reside in one pithrulOkam does that mean that they not given different lOkams with respect to their individual karmas and then given a body on this earth?  

4) There is no doubt that people who get the chance for doing prapatti are granted moksham then why there are rituals related to our ancestors who must any way be in Sri Vaikuntam without expecting anything from us? 

4) Is there any mention in our vedas that a person through his own prapatti and proper karmA anushtanams get Vaikuntapathavi for  his ancestors's who have not done prapatti and staying in pirthrulOkam ?

5) Why does Emperuman denies the memory of our previous birth? If the objective behind this is to save us from torturous memories of the previous births why doesn't He wipe off the poorva janma karma 'vAsanai'? 

6) Will there be  acharya avatharams like Ramanujar, Desikar and ManavAla Mamunigal in other higher lOkams or as AndAl says ‘ vAiyaththu vAzhvIrKaL’ such divine guidance for Moksham is available only on our earth?

 

AdiyEn requests the Bhagavathas to forgive me if there are any wrong or impolite words  considering adiyEn’s negligible knowledge and bhakti for ‘theedhu illA nallOrthiraL’. 

 AdiyEn,

PadhukA dAsan.

AravindalOchana DasAnu dAsan.
