SamAshrayanam marks a great turning point in the journey of jIvAtmA through the cycle of repeated birth and death. The Pancha SamskAram performed is invaluable. But , one has to keep up the samskAram by his regular devotional activities. The samskArams done loses its significance when one starts indulging in more materialistic activities , without caring about the Supreme Lord Sriman NArAyanA . The whole purpose of SamAshrayanam is to make a person ( jIvAtmA ) get involved in the sanAtana dharmA ( eternal dharmA) of performing Kainkaryam to Divya Dampati ( MahALakshmi & NArAyanA ). Surrender and love towards the Supreme Lord Sriman NArAyanA is the only purpose of human life . SamAshrayanam helps in a great way to make a person progress towards achieving this goal.
The disciple should be highly thankful to the AchAryA for his great compassion. He should take deep interest in the SampradAyam & gain the true knowledge from kAlakshepams (Discourses) either under the lotus feet of his achAryA or under other SriVaishnava achAryAs his achAryA directs him to do so

Is SamAshrayanam only for Iyengars?
Samashrayanam means 'to approach (Acharya) with all sincerity'.In a nut shell , during 'Samashrayanam' ,the Acharya initiates a person , irrespective of caste,creed or sex, as his sishya. It is a commitment from the disciple that he or she will live as per the wishes of the Acharya. Thus the person gets the link to the Sri Vaishnava parampara. During SamAshrayanam ,Pancha SamskAram (five fold Purifications) is performed and he becomes a "Sri VaishnavA".
