srimathe ramanujaya namaha

namo narayana

              iam a srivaishnavite.name:madhavadasan age:22.
                 actually establishing a philosophy has a rule.we 
have to write commentries on 
"prasthanathraya"(bagavad-gita,upanishad,bramhasutra).whoever 
wants to establish the philosophy,
has to write commentary of these three.
                there are 3 prominent philosophers  who wrote 
commentary
on these 3.they are adisankara-adwaitha 
,ramanuja-vishishtadwaitha
madhva-dwaitha.all these three instructed their disciples to 
worship
sriman narayana.but unfortunately,adisankara's philosophy was 
mis-interpeted by their disciples.
                coming to the point the upanishds called subala 
upanishad,maha-narayana upanishad and many other upanishds tell 
tht
sriman narayana is the supreme personality of godhead.

               moreover many puranas like bagavatham,vishnupurana 
etc and etc and etc describe abt sriman narayan.

                above all bagavatgita the supreme authority for 
all these 3 sect tells tht sriman narayan is the supreme 
personality.
