Meaning:
pa:
In this kaliyuga, where all the roads to the salvation are worsened and ceased,He(Ramanujacharya), the great Acharya, like a god he is there to show the way to salvation.
ca 1:
Because of HIS mercy only, in this world we became vaishNavAs. Because of him only we are able to see the "tirumani"(NAmAm on lord venkateswara swamy face).He only revealed and spread the "AshTAkshari mantram"( in tirukOshTiyUr, a village in TamilNadu , after he recieved the mantrafrom his Acharya, he climbed the post in front of the temple and shouted that who ever has interest to know the way to salvation, can come and listen and revealed it to all the interested people). He is none other than "RAMANUJACHARYA", who is the god for both the worlds namely "leelA vibhUti"(This prakritik world) and "nitya vibhUti" (The vaikunTam, where all the jIvatmAs will reach after salvation and will not return from there).
ca 2:
RAMANUJACHARYA only revealed all the secrets of the VEDAS ( through the commentary of "BRAHMA SUTRA", for wchich HE has been praised byGodess Saraswati as "SRI BHASHYAKARA", means "THE COMMENTATOR", though there exists so many commentaries for Brahma sutra, she accepted HIS one only). HE only showed the way of SARANAGATI (surrenderence). HE only re-established "SAMASRAYANAM"(the process of having conch and discus symbols of Lord NARAYANA on one's shoulders). HE is the sweetly talking GOD who walked in front of us.
ca 3:
RAMANUJACHARYA only set the rules for the "PRAPANNAS" (people who surrendered to lord NARAYANA). HE is the only one who shows the way to salvation with abundant MERCY(That is why he is called "vishNu lOka maNi manDapa mArgadAyi"). HE is the one who climbed the hills of Sri vEnkaTEswara smoothly on his knees. HE is there inside of the main temple of tirumala , showering the merciful looks on us like our mother , father and our beloved GOD.
