SrI VaishNavam is the only philosophy and practice which is flawless, eternal,unshakable, universal truth. No one started this. It has no date of starting. It iseternal. It is complete in itself, unparalleled, unsurpassed and therefore it is not abranch of any religion. SrI VaishNavam is the philosophy and practice of theVeda, which is not authored by anyone.

The outline of Visistadvaita Shree Vaishnavam is as follows:

Nirmalaananta Kalyaana Nidhaye Vishnave Namaha ||"
 
This sloka of Bhagavat Ramanuja (Vedaartha Sangraha) is the essence of our Visistadvaita Shree Vaishnava philosophy and practice. The Tatva-Hita-Purusharthas are beautifully conveyed by this verse.
