R?m?nuja - YATIR?JA SAPTATI? is a word to word translation of 74 verses in Sanskrit composed by Sw?mi Ved?nta De?ika (1268 CE-1369 CE), a well-known ?r? Vai?navite ?c?rya, in praise of ?r? R?m?nuja, the founder of the philosophy of Vi?i???dvaita. Referred to as a saint of the heart by Sw?mi Vivek?nanda, ?r? R?m?nuja’s philosophy is woven around a personal God with all auspicious qualities and attributes. ?r? R?m?nuja composed a total of 9 works in Sanskrit, his ‘magnum opus’ being the interpretation of Sage Vy?sa’s Brahma S?tra. Sw?mi De?ika was a polyglot and an author of 166 granthas in Sanskrit, Pr?krit and Ma?iprav?la. He established the doctrine of Prapatti (self-surrender) as the guaranteed route to M?k?a (liberation).
