Guru paramparA


Sriman Narayanan is the first AchArya for all of us.  He is the Adhi Guru.  Next comes Periya Piratti MahAlakshmi.  VishvaksEnar (Senai Mudhali)( -no connection with Mudhaliar caste of present times) is the next AchAryan.  He is the Chief of the Lord's army (sEnai).  Next is NammAzhwAr.  VishvaksEnar, it appears had come down to the earth to teach NammAzhwAr.  Nathamuni is His sishyA.  UyyakkoNdaar, MaNakkaal Nambi, Yamuna Muni (Alavandhaar), Periyanambi come in that lineage. Periya Nambi's sishyar is Our Most reverred YathirAjar, Sri RamanujAchAryA (lakshmaNa Muni).  He is the Most important AchArya of VaishNava Siddhantham. He is also called Bhagavadh RamanujA.  Rest is all that you are aware of and we can trace down to our present AchAryA.  (ask your parent, if you are not sure who your present AchAryA is.)
