Thaniyans of the guruparamparai of srivaishnanvas

What are Thaniyans?

They are salutary verses or Hymns on the great people who have contributed majorly to the Sampradayam ( living traditions of both teaching and practice within a specific religious-spiritual tradition ) .

Below are the Thaniyans of the Acharyans, or preceptors of the srivaishnava sampradayam
