Parasara Bhattar demonstrated compassion, mercy, tolerance and empathy towards others, just like his Acharya Embar. Penpillai regrets not having the intentions like Parasara Bhattar, who was glad to offer kainkaryam to the Lord in every possible way and even with every small opportunity he got.

Being kind and caring regardless of human beings or animals is the same as loving the Lord. Compassionate Embar did something daring that no other person would risk doing. Penpillai is worried about not having a prominent quality of a Sri Vaishnava, which is, being empathetic to other living beings.

Kurathazhwan led a life consistent with the teachings of Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita. His son Parasara Bhattar, is renowned for having exceptional abilities and intelligence even at a very young age. Penpillai describes an incident where Bhattar, as a little boy, used his insight, and humbled a proud old scholar.

Blessings of Goddess Mahalakshmi are essential for a bhakta. However, blessings of an Acharya who is filled with the grace of goddess Mahalakshmi are much more essential. We have heard about Jatayu who sacrificed his life to save Goddess Sita. Pennpillai unfolds the story of a woman who, disregarding the value of her own life, jumped into the river to save the life of her Acharya.

Referring to ourselves as "Adiyen'' will help us to let go of our superiority attitude. In Srivaishnava sampradaya, at times to show profound reverence a Srivaishnava will prostrate to the feet of another Srivaishnava younger to them. Do you know how Periya Thirumalai Nambi honoured his beloved nephew Swami Ramanuja? Hear out!

Welcome to Radha's birth place, Barsana. Manasik Yatra continues to dhai kund, morkuti and many other places, soaking us in the bliss of the adorable couple Radha Krishna.

The lord is impartial to all the jeevathmas, whether it is a human or an animal or an insect. Penpillai presents the story of Uparicharan, stressing on the biocentric equality. Thinking of the bhakthi demonstrated by many animals in puranas and ithihas will make us realize the equality. Veda patti highlights the radiantly compassionate purvacharyas to help us understand and to learn a lesson for our daily lives.

Acharyas point out that spiritual enlightenment will happen only if we give up the attachment towards our physical body. While it is difficult to observe detachment as an individual, the story of ThirunaraiyUr araiyar makes us wonder, how he observed it along with his family? Hearken to feel the awe-inspiring bhakthi of a devotee's family.

"To prosper in life, surrender to the feet of Swami Ramanuja".

Penpillai narrates a story that exemplifies this tagline of Sri Vaishnava Sampradaya. Kurathazhwan regretted being a scholar, after witnessing a person receiving special attention from Swami Ramanuja. Who was that person? Did he acquire something more than what Kurathazhwan possessed?
