Samashrayanam is an important ritual in the Sri Vaishnavism tradition, particularly in the context of Vaishnava initiation. It is a key ceremony in which a devotee surrenders to the deity (Vishnu, in this case) and is formally initiated into the religious and spiritual practices of the tradition. The word “Samashrayanam”

“Sama”: Refers to “acceptance” or “surrender.” And “Ashraya”: Refers to “shelter” or “refuge.”

Thus, Samashrayanam can be translated as “taking refuge” or “surrendering oneself to the divine,” particularly to Vishnu or his divine forms like Rama or Krishna. Samashrayanam is performed by the Achrayan or Guru to his disciple, above image represents the Samashrayanam is done by Sri Periya Nambigal to Sri Ramanuja Acharya
