Please refer to SM Srinivasa Chari's book on Vaishnavism for everything you want to know about Vaishnavism. I believe that according to our aachaaryas, Vaishnavism is the only true vedic religion practiced during even the rgvedic times. So, the sampradaayam existed much before Raamaanuja. -- Murali Kadambi > ---------- > From: TV.Venkat@frco.com[SMTP:TV.Venkat@frco.com] > Sent: Monday, July 06, 1998 11:08 AM > To: bhakti@lists.best.com > Subject: Our Sampradhayam > > Dear Sri Vaishnavas, > > All the rich tradition and culture, that we are following as Sri > Vaishnavites now were Sri Ramanujar's Niyamanam (i.e) we are now > following the guidelines given by Sri Ramanujar for doing the > Thiruvaaraadhanam, Ghosti and following the Nitya-Anusandhanams. > > However, Sri Vaishnavism is existing even before Sri Ramanujar.
