A while back someone asked what "prapatti" meant.
I am not sure it was answered.
Prapatti is a synonym for "saranaagati", surrendering
oneself or offering one's self to the Lord. It is the
highest teaching of Sri Vaishnavism, and living the
life of a prapanna is the highest goal of a Sri Vaishnava.
The Alvars, for example, are ideal prapannas.
