Adiyen has few queries from GSPK’s series of discourses by Navalpakkam Sri U Ve Kannan Swamy on the greatness of the Vedas (Vedha Mahimai). Can Srivaishnava-s learn Vedas from Vedic scholars of other tradition or Veda school (Pathasala)? Must Srivaishnava-s prostrate before Vedic scholars of other traditions? Is it allowed to prostrate them as a Vedic scholar or because they are non-Srivaishnava-s, we just pay respects with an Anjali? What is the practice of our Azhvar-s and Acharya-s?

Taking the time period into consideration, it is best to learn the Vedas from the scholars of our tradition. If not possible, as there is a scarcity of Vedic scholars who can impart the Vedas, there is no harm in learning the Vedas from them. It is important to learn the Vedas.
The Vedas say that all demi-gods reside in the Brahmin who has learned the Vedas. Krishna has said that he reveres the Agnihothri. Hence, even if they belong other traditions, there is no harm in prostrating them.
