Preface

The book Lexicography of Ramanujacharyta, based on the life history of Ramanukacharya and his simhasanas, Ramanujacharya is one and only religious personality to give importance to life of human being, though he is an avatar of Laksmana in Treta Yuga and Krisna in Dwapar :Yuga during the era of Buddhism, Christianity, Jainism and Mohammedanism were in full force to spread their religion and philosophy in India. Though, he was an incarnation of two great Hindu religious gods, he appeared in the world as Human being with its own human value. He was able to cspitalize human values and its culture in the world, though he was born in very small village, [Sriperambudur - Tamil Nadu, which lead to the assassination of Late Rajiv Gandhi, the prime minister of India, facilitating the village to have some bright hue, to have political and public circle]. Ramanujacharya lead simple life, where his human value potentiality without any religious and philosophical discrimination in the beginning of 9th century B.C. to spread human valued religion named as Vishistadvaitam.

This is the first Lexicography of Ramanujacharya in Indian book publishing history, covering the entire life saga of Ramanujacharya commencing from 917 B.C. to 1137 B.C. covering 120 completely two Tamil cycle of era. He is a true follower of Thirukkchinambi, Alavandar, Yadavpakseh, Uyyakondar and Yamunacharya.

The book tries to cover all his literary works Ramanujacharya and his simhasanas with meaningful explanation. The book cover entire life history of his simhasanas, their works, of which the following important roles in Tirukachinambi, Tirukostiyur Nambi, Pillai Lokacharya, Periya Vacchan Pillai, Vadakku Tiruveedi Pillai, Nachiyar, Nappinai, Tirumalai Alvan, Manavala Mamunigal, Vedanta Desikan and others. He has nearly 74 Simhasanas of which three were female members. Though his simhasanas belong to different caste, true followers of Ramanujacharya’s philosophy emulate in philosophical manner and human value adopting system.

Acharya was able to cover the entire Vaisnavism temples, where Alvars have sung the greatness of Vaisnava gods and goddesses in the temple, as it stated in the (Nalayirya Divya Prabandham-4,000 songs-Tamil) which was Nathamunigal. Later on, Ramanujacharya who had visited all the 106 temples and coined the word Divya Desam, which was found in a holy place in the middle of all Vaisnava temple and followers. He lived for more number of years of his lilfe at Srirangam and Melukote. His contribution for the development of Vaisnava sampradayam is was more which facilitated him lay the foundation stone for Visistadvaitam.

I thank the publisher for his honest attempt to publish the script in the lexicographical form. It is purely a guide for any religious reader and writer to develop the Vaisnava knowledge in depth.
