Dear Smt Raji:
I just posted Sri vElukkudi Krishnan's article since he had some problems.
Sri mAdhavakkaNNan has beautifully quoted perumAL's words themselves. Lets
do some AzhvAr anubhavam...
anthima smaraNam is not necessary for a prapannan. In fact if we specify
*anything* (other than the Lord's thiruvadi) as a necessity, then the basic
concept of prapatthi gets violated. That is the innate beauty of prapatthi.
As Sri Velukkudi Krishnan explained, it is a state of mind where you have
totally surrendered with mahA visvAsam.
Our dear periyAzhvAr says (in paththAm thirumozhi):
eyppu ennai van^dhu n^aliyum pOdhu
an^gu Edhum n^aan unnain^inaikka mAttEn
appOdhaikku ippOdhE solli vaiththEn
aran^gaththu aravaNai paLLiyAnE!
Hope this explains.
adiyEn
