For the past 30 years I have been doing kainkaryam for this festival to keep up the family tradition though I have not been physically present there. However I have pleasant memories of going everyday during the 10 day festival and participating in stotra pAta pArAyanam. I am so happy to read the contributions of all the members on our heritage and the rich sampradayam our Guru parampara left for us. I congratulate all of you for celebrating Swami Desikan's Tirunakshatram by contributing these articles. DEsikan ThiruvadigaLe Saranam. Narasimhan.
