36 I will expound the uniqueVyasa Sutra (Brah
masutra); I will confer upon two worthy people the names of his father (Vyasa's father Parâsara) and Satari. Having made these promises Ramanuja prostrated
at the feet of the departed great one. 37 In a moment his three fingers resumed
the usual condition (of erectness). Having seen this, all present, declared that this (young man Ramanuja) will surely become the principal in the establishment of the Siddhanta (the qualified Monistic
School of the Vaishpavas). 38 Hastening back to Kanchi even without
workshipping God Ranganatha (of Srirangam), baving made reverential obeisance to God Varada (at Kanchi), he settled down serving God with water, etc.; thus engaged he pondered on one occasion as to what he should then do (to fulfill
his solemn promise). 39 Addressing himself then to Kanchipurna
(Tiu-Kachchinambi) who was in the confi. dence of Varada at Kanchi and who laid down the duties of each of the separate castes and each separate stage in the life of # Hinda, Ramanuja sought help of the guru to ascertain the wishes of God regard
ing what he was pondering in his own mind. 40 I with Sri (Lakshmi) am the supreme being:
my conviction is difference ; resigning oneself to God is the safest way to
salvation ; conscious volition not essential at the end of this life, salvation%3; for the time being the preceptor is to be sought
by you in Mahapurņa. 41 These six statements of Varada he commu
nicated to. Ramanuja in secret ; so it is that this keeper of the conscience of Varada (God) ever after became worthy
of the reverence of Ramanuja. 42 Afterwards, Ramanuja journeying towards
Srirangam, halted for worshipping Tatakapila Raghunandana, together with
Sri, Bhumi and Nila at Madurintakam. 43 Ramanuja baving there met by accident
Mahậpurņa wbo had arrived at the temple (on his way to Kanchi to fetoh Ramanuja) at the instance of his fellowdisciples (of Alavandar) and having prostrated at the feet of Mahapurna, each of them had his eyes filled with tears of joy (at this unlooked-for meeting).
