Vyakhyana Saram:
In this shloka, Swami Desikan is saluting Swami Ramanuja. Ramanuja's
commentary Sri Bashyam is on Veda Vyasa's Brahma Sutra. It was based
on Bodhayana's vrutti that he obtained by traveling to Kashmir along
with Kooraththazhvan. This event is well dcoumented in Guru Parampara.
This authoritative work is a must read for all Srivaishnavas - as
determined by Swami himself. Desikan is stating that it is through
this work that one gains the deep knowledge that is needed to truly
'see' the parama purusha.
