Prappatti explanation needed

[ksk]

Dear Bhagavatas,

 

I am a smartha brahmin of Srirangam and currently in New York.

 

I want to know more about the Prappatti. Can a person chant the govinda naama without any initiation and reach the lotus feet of Perumal?

 

Or only a person born in Sri i Pada Ramanujacharya sampradaya will attain moksham?

 

If that is the case, what is the guidance for people like me by renowned Sri Vaishnavas? What our Vaishnava scriptures say about a person who is born in a non-vaishnava family but still attracted towards his forms and esp.his holy names?

 

Kindly elaborate.

 

Hare Krishna!!
