Re: Austrian research on Visishtadvaita (Pancharatra)

Dear Vishal

I would like to point out that Visistadhvaitha is Vedantha Matham and
Panchratraa is an Aaagama...by many Vaishnavaas and Sri Vaishnavaas.

Though In Visitatdhavitha Vedantha System Pancratara Aaagama is held
in high esteem.and that the Scholars have defended Pancrathraa,prooved
its validity (against refutatation from NirVisesha Advaitha school..)

We also have Vaikanasaa Aagama the other popular Vaishnava Aaagama
that is in vogue.

I humbly feel the way you mentioned viz "Vistathdvaitha(Panchratra)"
is slightly misleading which some may think that Visitadhvaitha and
Pancrathra are synonyms and that they are different names for an aagama...


regards
Venkat
