Guest guest Posted August 12, 1998 Report Share Posted August 12, 1998 RESPECTED Vijay, , that is great, i was really waiting for someone who has not talked about our great karuppu swamy of thriuvellikeni i will add some more. 1.emperumanar was born only out triruvellikeni emperuman's sangalpam 2.as of now, he is the only god who bestows the most varam all of us may desire, that is "kainkarya prapti" - to serve him. 3. people will lose themselves when they attend ghosti during night time when he comes in procession in car street where one can enjoy sweet prapandam and also the nice sea breeze. 4. i am sure, if our beloved bhagawatas who are voting for other divya desams attend atlest once the rappathu sathumaurai or brahmautsavam ther or pagal pattu thirumoazhi sevakalam, they would enmass vote in favour of trivellikeni. 5.our GOD is very much cooperative to office goers like us for kaikaryam. even during brahmautsavam, one can attend the entire utsavam with just one hour permission or half an hour permission. i also request the other prappannas to add to my list in favour of thiruvellikeni emperuman. dasan K.M.NARAYANAN. >I would, therefore, vote for Tiru Allik Keni as the most favored Divya >Desam. >************************************************************************** > > > Who else would be happier than me?!

Guest guest Posted August 12, 1998 Report Share Posted August 12, 1998 Srimathe Narayanaya Namaha Ha! Ha!, Now I am in a real fixing situation. All along I had been arguing as to which is the best Divya DEsam between Thiruvarangam and Thirumalai. Now, the argument has branched to ThiruvallikkENi where I am living since my birth. Of course, without my Parthassaraty and Azhagiya Singan I would have been a big zero in both the Vaidheekam and Lowkeekam life. When two people vote for my PerumAL as the best, I wouldn't dare to argue further, particularly when Sri Anbil swamy brings out the beautiful reason for his vote. However, since I was arguing with respect to Thirumalai, I would still continue to argue for Thiruvarangam as the best Divya DEsam. I fall at the feet of my beloved PerumALs at ThiruvallikkENi and pray to Them to excuse me and allow me to argue in favour of Ranganathan. I believe my Ranganathan and VEdavalli in ThiruvallikkENi will allow me to do this. I also pray to the PerumALs of Thirumalai and other Divya DEsams to take our discussion in a lighter vein.!!

Guest guest Posted August 13, 1998 Report Share Posted August 13, 1998 Srimathe Narayanaya Namaha Further to what Sri Narayanan has wrote on this DIVYA dEsam I would like to add to list the most beautiful of all sevai's, the KAITHALA SEVAI on the Aippasi Moolam day, the thirunakshathiram of our great AchAryan Sri MaNavALa mAmunigal. Is there anything equal to it. Especially when our PerumAL is fully adorned will all the Diamond jewels and brought out to the Thirumanjana Mandapam from the Sannidhi by ArchakAs. Any body will certainly sing "dhorakuna ituvanti seva" To add further to the list, the best thirukkOlam or Saathuppadi is being done to the PerumAL only in ThiruvallikkeNi. Is there anything equal to the saathuppadi of "Paramapadhanaathan" on the 2nd day of Brahmotsavam in the Sesha vaahanam and on the 6th day of the pagal pathu utsavam. One would certainly feel as if they are really in Paramapatham. The VeNugopAlan thirukkOlam will really bring before one's eyes the KrishNan of AyarpAdi. On the fifth day of the Brahmotsavam of Azhagiya Singan when the "Yoga Narasimahar" Saathuppadi is done one would be spell bound on His beauty. After the pathi ulAthal during the Brahmotsavam, finally when the PerumAL is to enter the vaahana mandapam, the "OYYALI" sevai, where the PerumAL dances to the NAdaswaram notes is the best anywhere. Last but not the least is the YEsal during the GaruDa vaahanam, YAnai vaahanam and the Gudhirai vaahanam. Once again here the OYYALI is done with the vaahanam, a beautiful sight, just not to see but not to be missed. I will certainly say and argue that such beautiful thirukkOlams are not being done in any of the other Divya dEsams. Well this is all okay. However the heated debate on which is the No.1 Divya DEsam has not ended. Please do remember that the ARGUMENT is only between Thiruvarangam and Thirumalai as the case had always been. However when it comes down to the DISCUSSION on favourable Divya dEsam, I would also vote for my ThiruvallikkENi. But forget not that Srirangam gets the No.1 place amongst all the Divya DEsam, particularly over ThiruvEngadam going by the count of paasurams and the way the AzhwArs and AcharyAs have thronged in Srirangam. In fact the centre of Sri VaishNavA philosophy was at Srirangam which is why Sri ALavandAr wanted Sri RAmAnujar to come down to Srirangam to take up the job and not to continue from Kanchipuram. Sri RukmiNi samEtha Sri VEnkatakrishNa swAminE namaha Sri RanganAyaki thayAr samEtha Sri RanganAthan thiruvadigaLe saraNam. adiyEn RAmAnuja dAsan Thirumalai Vinjamoor Venkatesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
