Dear Shree Kasturi Varadarajan, Paancharaatra and Vaikhanasa are two Vaishnava Aagamas. Paancharaatra is authored by Lord Vishnu while Vaikhanasa is authored by Vikhanasa muni. Marichi, Atri, Brugu are few among contributers for Vikhanasa. Both are strictly in accordance with the Veda and taken as authority. The temple ritualls are from ancient period. Whatever aagama with with they were built, is being followed mostly till now. Of course few Aacharyas have converted few temple rituals to Paancharaatra which is more popular and celebrated in Brahma Sutra. Thanks & Regards M.S.HARI Raamaanuja Daasan. ============================================================== Kasturi Varadarajanwrote: > --------------------------------------------- > Attachment:Â > MIME Type:Â multipart/alternative > --------------------------------------------- Dear Friends, I have read that among the two agamas, Vaikhanasa and Pancharatra, Ramanuja preferred pancharatra. Is this correct? If so, what are the reasons? In view of the series of postings on Emberumanar and VP, DP, and BH, I request people to view my questions, and any responses that might follow, dispassionately. There are Vaikhanasa and pancharatra temples that are very dear to every Srivaishnava. -Kasturi ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get your money connected @ OnMoney.com - the first Web site that lets you see and manage all of your finances all in one place. http://click.egroups.com/1/3012/2/_/716111/_/955941428/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------------- - SrImate rAmAnujAya namaH - To Post a message, send it to: bhakti-list@eGroups.com Visit http://www.ramanuja.org/sv/bhakti/ for more information
