Among the participants were 5 Vice chancellors or former Vice Chancellors of Universities/Institutions, 12 professors and heads of departments from various universities in India, more than a dozen traditional scholars, and many budding young scholars in Ramanuja’s philosophy. 3 professors from the USA, including Francis Clooney, Parkman Professor of Divinity at Harvard University, Jon Paul Sydnor – Chairman of the Department of Theological studies at Emmanuel University, and Professor Gopal Gupta, Associate Professor at University of Evansville also participated and shared the depth of their  knowledge about Ramanuja’s contributions.

• The relevance of Ramanuja’s philosophy and teachings in today’s world – particularly in bringing about peace and harmony among all beings; in safeguarding the environment; and in bringing about equality among all human beings
• How Ramanuja’s philosophy appeals to the true seeker, regardless of the religious traditions they practice. 2 professors from USA, both of them ordained Christian priests/ministers, talked about how as seekers of truth, they learnt from, and appreciated various aspects of Ramanuja’s philosophy and traditions. They particularly emphasised the universal view point of Ramanuja that allows them to accept many of his teachings, and apply them and become better in their practice as Christians. As one professor mentioned “Ramanuja’s philosophy and what I learn from that allows me to become a better Christian”.
• Several technical topics were discussed at great length by great scholars, professors and budding students.

The first session was a fantastic session, where Prof M.A. Laksmitatachar swami, founder director of Academy of Sanskrit Research in Melkote and winner of several government awards, talked about how Ramanuja’s teachings are also relevant for taking care of the environment, in addition to philosophy and spiritual advancement. He showed several examples as to how. Prof. M.A. Venkatakrishna, Former head of department of Vaishnavism in University of Madras talked eloquently about how RAmanuja’s thoughts and reforms were appreciated by people from many walks of lives – including Swami Vivekannda, leaders of opposing philosophies, and even a very well known self-declared atheist poet in Tamilnadu Bharatidasan, who very proudly talked about how blessed TamilNadu is for being the birthplace of Ramanuja who brought the possibility of liberation and God to everyone regardless of caste and birth. In addition to these, there were scholarly discussions/presentations on the impact of the great Yamunacharya on Ramanuja’s thought and works – this was a treat to the interested students and scholars present.

The first day ended with a traditional sastra charcha in samskrit on a specific sentence in Chandogya Upanishad.

On 4th august, the first session had wonderful information to be shared. Sri Ayee Narasimhan talked about how Ramanuja was influenced by the great works of the Alwars while formalizing his philosophy and how he brought those to practice. Dr K. Anantha of Lal Bahadur Samskrit University, talked about the commentaries written on Sri Bhashya, the commentary written by Ramanuja on Vyasa’s Bramha Sutras.

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.3″ width=”80%” max_width=”1080px” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]In the second session, Professor Jon Paul Sydnor, an ordained minister Of the Church, and a scholar in comparative religion, talked very eloquently about how God can be felt in one’s life in 6 ways, following Ramanuja’s philosophy and teachings. He also talked about how this is very similar to some of the teachings/practices he follows. This was a wonderful speech that emphasised on the commonality between all seekers of truth in various religious traditions, and how it is important for seeker to learn the best from other traditions. There was a speech on how God encompasses the entire Universe as we know, and in addition how he is beyond just the Universe. Another talk traced the influence of the work of Yamunacharya on one of Ramanuja’s earliest works.

Second session was headed by Sripada Subramanyam, a renowned scholar who talked in depth about a technical aspect. This session was mostly a technical session, and a brilliant young scholar, Sriman MAnivannan captivated the audience and scholars through his wonderful mastery of a deeply complex work – in fact, the learned professors commented that his speech had so much depth that it could even be a thesis for an advanced degree.

The second day ended with a sastra charcha on a technical topic.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ width=”80%” max_width=”1080px”]

The first session of the third day was a fantasic session – Professor Francis Clooney of Harvard University eloquently talked about the Nitya grantha, a manual for daily worship, written by Ramanuja. He had translated it in English, and he talked about how this manual brings worship, ritual, meditation, surrender, community all together. Professor Clooney is a Catholic minister, and he talked about the commonalities between his mode of worship, and that present in the Nithya Grantha. In a Q&A session afterwards, he eloquently talked about how one should study other traditions, adopt whatever is acceptable to one’s own path, and respect whatever is different. These sessions also included a talk on the nature of Sri Vaikunta, or Paramapada by a couple of speakers. Professor Bhagavat Sharan Shukla beautifully pointed out the influence of Ramanuja and the similarities between the thoughts of various sampradayas like Madhvacharya sampradaya, Nimbarka Sampradaya, Ramananda Sapmradaya, Chaitanya Sampradaya, and others, with Ramanuja Sampradaya.
