Correction et al

[Guest guest]

Dear Prapatti Group Members:

1. In my posting on Aachaaram, There was a typo.

I meant to say that the 26th Jeeyar succeded his

father, who was the 25th Jeeyar. The 27th Jeeyar

was the son of the 26th Jeetar.This does not happen too

often.The distingushing fact was that all of them, from the

grandfather to the Grandson, were all great scholars

from a small Agrahaharam known as Gadhadharapuram,

close to Kumbakonam.Recently, a descendant of that

family renovated their Brindhavanams, which are next to

each other.

 

2. A question to Sri malolan: Where is Injimedu? My grandfather took

Bharanyasam from the Jeeyar from there.

 

3. Question on Bharanyasam Steps: A friend of mine had the

express permission from the 44th Jeeyar to Videotape the

Bharanyasam ceremony performed by this Jeeyar.

Inview of the sacredness of the ceremony, the Jeeyar has

commanded him to show it only to those , who have undergone

Bharanyasam. If you write to me offline, I can approach my

friend for permission to benefit from this video by

those, who have performed Bharanyasam .I must mention that

I may not be successful that the general request might be turned

down. Hence I do not want to raise the hopes too much.

I have taken the liberty of Mentioning this rare archival material.

I have not had the opportunity to ask my friend first. I will see,

how extensive the interest, before I broach the subject. Please write

to me a personal note. Thanks.

InjiMedu is between Arani and Vandavasi. It belongs to

peramanallur post. It is about 3 and a half miles from Peramanallur.

 

The presiding deity in injimedu temple is Sri Devadirajan and

Perundevi Thayar. But Sri Ramar is the Prachina Deivam. The temple is

also glorified by the Acharyas, Sri Ramanuja, Nammalwar, Adivan Satakopa

Yathindra MahaDesikan( 1st jeer of Ahobila Mutt), Shasta Parangusa

Swamigal( Sixth jeer of Ahobila Mutt), and Injimettu Jeer.

 

I have been to Injimedu Twice. I went to that place via Cheyyar.

That is also another way of reaching that place. From cheyyar catch a bus

going to peramanallur.

 

In injimedu, Nithya aradhanam is being conducted. there is one

Ahobila Mutt. Actually only one few streets in that village, and the rest

being farms.

 

It is from injimedu, the single stone for 36 foot anjaneya in

Nanganallur was taken. This place is also nearby to other villages

Thaiyar and Navalpakkam.

The names of the deities are the same as in Kanchi. Is the Injimedu temple by

any chance a later day temple, patterned on Kanchi?
