Guest guest Posted January 18, 1999 Report Share Posted January 18, 1999 SrimathE NArAyaNAya namahA With regards to Sri Mani's question on Sakkarai Pongal and Triplicane, my two cents worth are as follows :- Regarding the Sakkarai Pongal on "KoodArai vellum" day, as pointed out by Mani, "Paal sORu" is actually not Sakkarai Pongal. It is called "ksheerAnnam" ( "ksheeram"-milk, "annam"- rice). Actually still in Triplicane, on "KoodArai vellum" day, ksheerannam is made. However, it is a costly affair. So only if any sponsorer is there, then, "ksheeraannam" is made, otherwise, the less costly, Sakkarai Pongal. My understanding may also be wrong. But the information that I have given here is what I heard from our locals. Regarding Arjuna in ThiruvallikkENi koil, there is no vigraham of Arjuna in the Koil. PerumAL is seen here with his own family, Sathyaki, Balarama, Aniruddhan and Pradyumnan of course along with pirAtti. adiyEn RAmAnuja dAsan, Thirumalai Vinjamoor Venkatesh Regards T.V.Venkatesh E-mail : TVV Phone: 91-44-4960455 extn. 5218 Fax : 91-44-4960913 Visit : http://www.sanmargroup.com ***** Message Was Scanned For Viruses ***** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
