Objectives of Teachings of Ramanujacharya 
Ramanujacharya stated in his “Vedartha Samgraha” text that the universe is made up of souls, matter and Brahman. He asserted that souls and matter are dependent on Brahman as well meet the criteria of Brahman’s existence. The relationship between finite souls and matter is that of inseparability. His system of thought is known as qualified non-dualism as Brahman is supposedly qualified by chita and achita. Such qualities are distinct from God yet consist of interrelated modes of God’s body. 

He used the concept of organized postulation in order to show how two aspects of Brahman can be different from each other yet they cannot be different. The universe though distinct from Brahman is a part of Brahman. It is a quality and not an independent principle that is capable of functioning on its own. 

Ramanujacharya taught that souls and matter are dependent on Brahman for their existence. Brahman is the supreme Soulwho is present in finite souls and matter. Brahman dwells in the souls unknown till it reaches liberation. The finite souls realize their divine nature but do not become identical with God. 

According to him, Brahman is both the inner-controller and inner-ruler that is present in all souls and matter. The world is real and a part of Brahman. Finally, he taught that God`s grace is accessible to anyone irrespective of caste, so long as they devote themselves to Lord. Self-surrender is the key to spiritual liberation. He insisted that humans are unable to be saved by their own efforts and the grace of God is required. God’s grace is available to those who surrender themselves to God thereby admitting their full dependence on him. Brahman facilitates these souls to achieve Moksha through his grace.
