Re: demigod worship
From the Bhakti List Archives
• August 25, 2000
Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Dear Bhaktas, Before launching tirades and deploring the writings of respected Sri Vaishnavas (like Sri Madhavakkannan Swamin), it is advisable for new members of the list to check the archives to see if the topic in question has already been discussed. In the six years of its existence, the subject of demi-God worship has been extensively discussed in this forum. Sadacharyas in the line of Swami NammAzhwar have indicated the position to be adopted by Prapannas towards other deities. Sriman Madhavakkannan Swamin was merely articulating this in his response. Those who may not be familiar with the nuances to be practised by a Prapanna could do well to study this under the feet of an Acharya or a qualified Bhagavata before engaging in adhominem attacks on respected Bhagavatas. Adiyen has known Sri Madhavakkannan Swamin as a distinguished Sri Vaishnava ever since he joined this forum. He is a fellow-Shishya of adiyen's Acharya, H.H. Srimad Andavan Swami of Srimad Poundarikapuram Ashramam and his adherence to Acharyan's dictates is exemplary. He has rendered yeoman service to the cause of our Sampradayam by propagating Acharya Sri Sookthis in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Therefore, adiyen requests new members to refrain from launching tirades against respected Bhagavatas of this list.
