ଶ୍ରୀ ଯତିରାଜ ସ୍ତୋତ୍ରମ୍ (ରଙ୍ଗାର୍ଯ କୃତ)

A hymn to Ramanuja by Rangarya, and its refrain is a triple naming rather than a single one — I worship the author of the commentary, I worship Lakshmanarya, I worship Ramanujarya of Salasangrama — so that the scholar, the man with his given name, and the figure attached to a place are all saluted in the same breath. The second verse widens further and becomes a list of salutations to teachers instead of to him: to the makers of the eternal divine Prabandham, to the sages who know the Pancharatra, to my own teachers, to their teachers, and to the teachers of the fivefold consecration. That last is the Srivaishnava initiation, so what the hymn is really honouring is the unbroken line of transmission with Ramanuja standing in the middle of it.
