My grandfather was a Vaishnava and had a large number of disciples. Not surprising, my native province is the birth place of Vaishnana.

thats a good thing but some people around here belive that vaishnava doctrine is faked or just invented recently as a copy of christianity.Anyway no wonder as vaishnava philosophy was ignored in most of books that treated hinduism.Is true that some vaishnavas was influenced by ecumenism(just like almost all other branches of hinduism by the way).They simply dont understand the basic ideas of Ramanuja and Madhva.They will know then that hinduism is superior in any way comparative whit semitic ideas in the sense that vaishnava personalist doctrine is superior to personalist christian one ;and this is true in the impersonalist sense as smarta shows.
Hindu philosophical books are superior in deepness of the subject,poetical language,in the fact that the object is pushed to the extremes of the human mind until the last consenquences,in the vastity of the subject treated,in the very detailed analise and in emotional enrichment also.
