Soul after death

From the Bhakti List Archives

• February 26, 2003


Sir
I have been these letters  regarding soul after death
with interest.
My uncle UV Ganapadi Desikachariar of Mannargudi,who
is the consultant on Visistadvaita for both Ahobila
Madam and Andavan Sannadhi has translated Pitur Meda
Sastram written by Apasthamba Rishi into 2 books
called Poorva Prayogam and Aparaprayogam.I have had
the oppurtunity to talk to him regarding translating
these books into English and he agreed provided
somebody can stay in Vaduvoor in my native village.
I wish to recall the Words of Nigamantha Maha Desika
where in Amirtha ranjini he states that those who have
taken Prapatti will be content serving the Lord
whereever he is without entering into such debates as
the individual who has surrendered to the Lord has
agreed to the Lord as his Master and it is upto the
master to look after us ,we are content serving him
devotedly.
For semi believers there is always scope for
arguments.However we Srivaishnavas beleive strongly in
the Karmas mentioned in the Aparaprayoga and follow it
as was done by our Acharyas ,Bhasyakara and Nigamantha
Maha Desika.For those who are interested in the
details these books are available at Andavan Sannadhi
at Desikachariar street,Chennai
