75 Then Yatisa, followed by many disciples going to Tirupati by way of Kanchi and devoutly worshipping the adorable at the hill of Venkata, paid his respects to his guru Sri Sailapûrna, having been regarded with favour by the God at Venkatadri.
76 Having been favoured by him and devot - ing himself to Srinivasa, from Sri Sai - lapürna, Yatiśa Ramanuja, learnt, in the course of a year's residence, the Ramayana with all its varied interpretations.
77 At the command of Sri Saila, his two sons, learnt there from Râmânuja, all that was worth learning Sri Saila gave over to Râmânuja, the younger of the two, as being worthy of his place.
78 Having taken with him Pillin given by Sri Saila, and Govinda Bhaṭṭa obtained at his own (Râmânuja's) request, Yatisa (Râmânaja), with joy, returned to Srirangam by way of Kanchi. 79 Seeing Govinda Bhatta, quite resigned, Râmânuja made him an ascetic under the name of Embâr. By the grace of God Ranganatha, to that Kûranâtha (Kûrattalvâr) had been born the son Bhatta.
80 Giving the name Parisara to that Bhatta, Ramânaja by his approval established the commentary on the Sahasranama written by Bhatta and thus fulfilled the second of the desiderata of Yamunârya.
81 On a certain occasion seeing Râmânuja (Yatisa) contemplating the drift of a certain Prabandha (Poems in the Tamil Prabandha ), that son of Purna (Pillán, son of Sri Sailapurna) stated what Ramanuja was in contemplation upon.
82 Struck with wonder at the young man giving out what he himself arrived at on contemplation, believing that the young man knew it because of his descent from Nathamuni, Râmânuja embraced him as his son in intellectual descent.
