Sankalpams for the Kaimkaryams for the Year 2000

[Guest guest]

Dear BhakthAs :

 

AdiyEn would like to share with you all the four sanklapams

for Bhagavath-Bhaagavatha kaimkaryams for the coming year

on this sacred " Marghazhi ThingaL " ThiruppAvai

dinam and invite you to join in these kainmkaryams .

 

AdiyEn prays for the anugraham of SooDikkoduttha NaachiyAr

and Sri RanganAthan to give us all the strength of will and

body to complete these kaimkaryams and for them accept these

kaimkaryams as SamarpaNams at their holy feet by

their children .May the dhivya dampathis keep us

all together as a sathsangam with harmony

and contentment arisin gout of dhyAnam

of their sacred feet and Sundara Vadhanams .

 

The Four Sankalpams

*********************

 

The First Sankalpam:

*********************

(1) Completion of the postings on the remaining

seven eighth portion of Swamy Desikan's

Sri RanganAtha PaadhukA Sahasram with the help of

Sri Murali Rangaswamy , Sri Achutharaaman and Srimathi

PraveeNA Ananad . Since there are 878 slOkams to be completed

in the remaining 381 days until December 31, 2000

( the real dawn of the 21st Century ), we might have to

post two or three slOkams per day to reach that

target date. Swamy Desikan composed the 1008 slOkams

in the course of one Yaamam of a night at Srirangam

and us poor mortals can only attempt to do this much

with the grace of the Sambhandham with our AchArya

Saarvabhouman , Swamy Deesikan.

 

Three postings per day will be like the performance

of thrikAla SandhyA Vandhanam and the two postings

per day will be like the combination of PrAtha:

sandhyA with MaadhyAhnikam and adding the Saayam sandhyA

to it to make a count of two .The URL for the PadhukA

Sahsram home pages is :http://paaduka.homepage.com/

 

The Second Sanklapam :

**********************

 

(2) As adiyEn performs this Kaimkaryam of providing

comments from the poorvAchArya anubhavams on the most

auspicious Sri RanganAtha PaadukA Sahasram , it becomes clear

that the PaarAyaNam and Japam of the individual

slOkams is like the direct experience of Sri RanganAthan,

His Uthsavams in general and Thiru AdhyayanOthsavam

in particular ( " Prathyakshimiva Samvruttham ").

 

The lustre of the nine kinds of gems on His Paadhkai

reminds one of the nine Sri Sookthis of AchArya RaamAnujA.

Sri YathirAjar's premai for NammAzhwAr ( SatAri of the Lord

of Rangam ) and the MokshOthsavam for NammAzhwAr

at Srirangam come to adiyEn's mind.

 

AdiyEn wondered how we can connect the salutations to

the SatAri ( PaadhukA Sahasram )and the nine dhivya maNis

of ThiruppAvai Jeeyar ( AchArya RaamAnujA's nine dhivya

sookthis ) to the Lord at His AasthAnam as

Sriman NaarAyaNan listening to SaraNAgathi Gadhyam .

 

With subha soochakams , it became clear that

the creation of a SATAARI ENMESHED WITHNINE GEMS

(nava rathnam ) for AchArya RaamAnuja archA moortham

at MelkOte would be most appropriate.AchArya RaamAnujA's

stay at Srirangam and MelkOte are described in

the CD ROM on AchArya RaamAnuja Vaibhavam that is

being sent in batches on this sacred day of Marghazhi

to the supporters of this kaimkaryam . AchArya RaamAnujA's

construction of MelkOte temple for Thiru NaarAyaNan

and his stay for 12 years there to grow our sampradhAyam

are well recorded in the CD ROM as described in

our GuruparamparA granthams .

 

The samarpaNam of a Kaanchana PaadhukA with nine gems

encrusted on the top portion of the AchArya RaamAnuja

Paadhukai(SatAri) began to dawn on AdiyEn's mind. With

the experience gained in the design and samarpaNam

of the RathnAngi and Mutthangi for Sri Oppilappan

and the MaaNikka KoNdai for Sri BhUmi Devi and

the two MutthukkoNDais for Sri ANDAL of SrivilliputthUr

WITH YOUR GENEROUS SUPPORT , adiyEn thinks that

the Dhivya dampathis will energize us and bless us

to complete this Kaimkaryam .

 

Please let me know of your interests in particpating

in this Kaimkaryam of a unique kind . AdiyEn should

receive estimates on the funds needed for this

Nava Rathna SatAri SamarpaNa Kaimkaryam for Udayavar

at MelkOte on Sri Vaikunta EkAdasi day from Chennai.

Please share with adiyEn your comments on

this proposed kaimkaryam .You may also wish to browse

the beautiful home pages for AchArya RaamAnujA

maintained by Sri Achutharaman and Sri MadhavakkaNNan

of Simhapuri (http://members.tripod.com/Sriramanujar).

 

The Third Kaimkaryam

*********************

 

(3) The population of Swami Desikan Home pages with

the content relating to all of his Sri Sookthis to

compliment the informative home pages maintained by

Sri MadhavakkaNNan and Sri Achutharaaman . The URLs for

these two home pages for Swami Desikan Sri Sookthis

and life are:

The Fourth Kaimkaryam

**********************

(4) On this Sri Vaikunta EkAdasi day , We ( Sri Haresh

Balasubramanyan and adiyEn ) will announce the preliminary

plans for a major home page to celebrate SrinivAsa

Vaibhavam . We have the good fortune of support from

Thirumalai DevasthAnam to use some of the images from

their magnificient home pages for the Lord of Seven Hills .

We will announce the full plan and release the first

version of the SrinivAsa Vaibhavam Home pages on

the Makara sankarAnthi day and attempt to enrich them

with new content throughout the year 2000 .

 

These kaimkaryams will provide the divine ballast

for keeping this boat moving in the samsAra saagaram

towards my AchAryan's Thiruvadi.

Sri:

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namah:

 

Dear Sri Sadagopan mama,

 

Your writing on any Bhagavath Vishayam and on any clarification on

Srivaishnavam and our Ramanuja Sampradayam itself is a kaimkaryam. It is

really a blessing and Bhagyam to be associated and linked electronically to

read these posts.

 

The millenium (past) has seen GREATEST SRIVAISHNAVAS. With electronic

propagation and anubhavams, the next one, Bhagavath sankalpam, AChArya

anugraham, will see many more...

 

poliga poliga pOyiRRu valluyir chaapam.. kaliyum kedum kaNdu koNmin..

 

the turn of last millenium had Yamunamuni, and the new era was blessed (at

1017) Sri Ramanujacharyar, followed by the simham, Swamy Desikan, Pillai

lokachariar, and then by Sri AdhivaN satagopar, Sri Manavalamamuni. We are

continuously being blessed with SadAchAryars, and will continue to be..

 

It is Emperumaan's grace and kataaksham that should enable us turn towards

them for saving us. It is His grace and kataaksham in disguise through such

great posts of yours and other Bhagawathas in this list.

 

Narayana Narayana
