  12. SRI: VAISHnAVISM CHIT JIVA= ‘SELF’ ARE INNUMERABLE= AS MANY BODIES JIVA IS DIFFERENT FROM SENSE ORGANS MIND & VITAL AIRS JIVA IS ETERNAL, SELF-MANIFEST & BLISSFUL BY NATURE

  13. SRI: VAISHnAVISM CHIT ‘KNOWLEDGE’ IS THE QUALITY WHICH CHARACTERISES JIVA IN THREE STATES OF EXISTENCE- STATE OF ‘WAKEFULNESS, DREAM PERCEPTION, DEEP SLEEP’ FINAL STATE ‘TURIYA (LIBERATION)’

  14. SRI: VAISHnAVISM CHIT IN LIBERATION JIVA REMAINS KNOWER • NEVER LOSES IDENTITY • AWARE OF WHAT HE IS THUS KNOWLEDGE IS INSEPERABLE FROM SOUL (CALLED DHARMABHOOTA JNANA = ATTRIBUTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS)

  20. VADAGALAI (VEDANTA DESIKA’S VIEWS) SRI: IS MOTHER OF ALL JIVAS SRI: IS ALL PERVASIVE LIKE PARAMA:TMA SRI: IS ISVARI BELONGS TO CATEGORY OFPARAMA:TMA = ISVARAKOTI SRI: IS THE MEDIATOR (PURUSHAKARA) SRI: CAN GRANT MOKSHA SRI: FORMS GOAL OF HUMAN LIFE TENGALAI (PILLAI LOKACHARYA’S VIEWS) SRI: IS MOTHER OF ALL JIVAS SRI: IS ATOMIC IN SIZE SRI: IS ISVARI (BELONGS TO CATEGORY OF JIVAS = JIVA KOTI BUT SUPERIOR TO ALL JIVAS) SRI: IS THE MEDIATOR (PURUSHAKARA) SRI: CAN NOT GRANT MOKSHA SRI: FORMS GOAL OF HUMAN LIFE SRI: VAISHnAVISM

  21. VADAGALAI (VEDANTA DESIKA’S VIEWS) GRACE OF SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA, IS SAHETUKA= IT COMES ONLY IF ONE DESERVES GRADES OF MOKSHA ARE ABSENT KARMA, JNANA ARE ANCILLARY TO BHAKTI, PRAPATTI IS ANOTHER MEANS TO MOKSHA SRI: OR LAXMI IS CO-PERVASIVE WITH SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA TENGALAI (PILLAI LOKACHARYA’S VIEWS) GRACE OF SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA IS NIRHETUKA, NO REQUIREMENTS THOSE LIBERATED DO KAINKARYA FOR SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA (PARA:RTHA KAINKARYA) AND FOR THEIR SATISFACTION ALSO (SVA:RTHA) KARMA AND JNANA CAN DIRECTLY LEAD TO PRAPATTI EASIEST, PRAPATTI IS ALMOST ONLY WAY TO SALVATION SRI: VAISHnAVISM

  22. VADAGALAI (VEDANTA DESIKA’S VIEWS) SRI: IS THE UPAYA OR MEANS OF LIBERATION MUKTI LIKE LORD SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA’S, VATSALYA LIES IN OVERLOOKING JIVA’S FAULTS SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA’S DAYA COMPASSION LIES IN HIS SYMPATHY, HE DOES NOT SUFFER WITH HUMANITY TENGALAI (PILLAI LOKACHARYA’S VIEWS) SRI: IS ATOMIC LIKE JIVA, NOT ALL PERVASIVE LIKE VISHNU SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA, IS THE ONLY UPA:YA, NOT SRI ALSO SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA, LOVES THE FAULTS OF JIVAS, HE ALSO SUFFERS WITH SUFFERING HUMANITY SRI: VAISHnAVISM

  23. VADAGALAI (VEDANTA DESIKA’S VIEWS) REMEMBERING SRI:MAN NA:RA:YAnA, IN THE LAST MOMENT (ANTIMA SMARANA) IS NECESSARY FOR LIBERATION PRAPATI IS ANOTHER YOGA LIKE BHAKTI WITH ELABORATE PROCEDURE OF SPIRITUAL CULTURE TENGALAI (PILLAI LOKACHARYA’S VIEWS) THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE NOR EXPECTED FROM US PRAPATTI IS ONLY MEANS OF SALVATION, IS SIMPLE WITH NO COMPLICATIONS SRI: VAISHnAVISM

  24. VADAGALAI (VEDANTA DESIKA’S VIEWS) ONE SHOULD NOT GIVE UP ALL OTHER DUTIES (DHARMA TYAGA) FOR PRACTISING PRAPATTI.

  27. VADAGALAI (VEDANTA DESIKA’S VIEWS) KAIVALYA IS STATE OF SELF EXPERIENCE,FROM WHICH ONE CAN TRY FOR MOKSHA, AND IS NOT MOKSHA INDIVIDUALS NEED TO DO SARANAGATI SEPERATELY TENGALAI (PILLAI LOKACHARYA’S VIEWS) KAIVALYA IS LOCATED IN HIGHEST ABODE, WHO ATTAINS IT WILL NOT COME BACK TO THIS WORLD, HE CANNOT ATTAIN MOKSHA EITHER SRI:RAMANUJA’S PRAPATTI IS SUFFICE FOR HIS FOLLOWERS SRI: VAISHnAVISM
