I am grateful to Prof Vasudha Narayanan for correctly identifying Dr KKA Venkatachari's career and contributions. aDiyen rAmAnujadAsan T.S. Sundara Rajan.

Venkatachari. He did his doctorate at Utrecht university in Holland (not Harvard), but was instrumental in guiding many of us, including Professor Carman of Harvard. Infact, through his introduction, I was a graduate student at Harvard for two years. He has left the Swaminarayan center in Gujarat and is now back in Madras. His book _Manipravala literature_ is of course an authority in the field. With respects, Vasudha Narayanan Professor, Department of Religion PS I was excited to know you are from Srirangam. Mrs. Devaki (W. Adayavalanjan) is my father's cousin and I spent many happy weeks with her studying the adhyayana utsavam in 1990 January when I was on sabbatical. Although I have been to Srirangam regularly from childhood and still go there, those days in residence were thrilling. I had the privilege of getting to know Sri Nadamuni araiyar, Sri Veenai Rengarajan and many other learned people there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
