Materialien zur Geschichte der Ramanuja-Schule VIII: Zur Eschatologie der Ramanuja-Schule vor Venkatanatha
The final section deals with the adoption of Ramanujas teaching by later authors of the Ramanuja Schools Sanskrit tradition, including Narayanarya and Meghanadarisuri (both probably ca. 1300 CE). Like Ramanuja, they both argue for union with the Brahma and the brahmanic-vedantic concept of the "way of the gods" as being the state of salvation after death. In contrast, Varadaguru (13th c. CE) adds an alternative teaching, which is part of a saranagati theology, according to which he who performs the formal act of devotion (saranagatih) to Visnu may be sure of the grace and help of God in the hour of his death, thus attaining Visnu directly (not via the "way of the gods").
