Jai Shree Krishna,
According to my very little knowledge
'Anyashrya' means to follow other religion or god for our good fortunes in bad time & don't have Dradh Vishwas (full faith) in our Shree Guru & Shree Thakorji.
'Anannyashrya' means we have Dradh Vishwas(full faith) in our Shree Guru & Shree Thakorji. We don't follow any other religion or god for our good fortunes in bad time.

Jaishreekrishna!
It is very sad that we do "annyashray" daily in some form or other. We may not be going to other temples or worshipping other gods but don't we tell to our friends or parents that " if not for you who would have done this for me". By saying this statements we do hurt our Thakorji."Annyashray" not only means going to other temples and praying to other gods but we commit "annyashray" also by doing "Mukhratadosh" i.e by uttering statements wherein we give entire credit to other person and not shree thakorji."annyashray" is explained in varta of Baso Bavan Vaishnav where this old lady told a sainik who did not destroy her house by telling him " Tu mereko jeevao" i.e "Ypu saved me". Thakorji thereafter did not show any sanubhav to old lady as she gave entire credit to the sainik.
"Annanyashray" is when we live, die,eat.drink,laugh,cry only for Shree Thakorji and nobody else. When nothing except for his happiness matters to us.
