AchArya RaamAnujA Navarathna SatAri kaimkaryam at Melkote

[Guest guest]

Dear BhakthAs :

 

What a Millenium it has been !

 

The seeds for the great Sri SampradhAyam was

planted 176 years before the start of this

millenium with the avathAram of

Sri RanganAtha Muni /Nathamuni ( 824-924 A.D) ,

His sishya paramaparai spanning another

117 years includes :

 

UyyakkonDAr ( 826-931 A.D) ,

 

MaNakkAl Nambi (832-937 A.D),

 

YaamunAcchArya/AlavandhAr ( 916-1041 A.D).

 

Afterwards came the five preceptors of our EmperumAnAr

( 1017-1137 A.D). They are:

 

(1) Periyanambi /MahA Poornar,

 

(2) Thirumalai Nambi/Srisaila Poornar ( 973-1073 A.D)

 

(3) ThirukkOttiyUr nambi/Goshti PoorNar

 

(4) MaalAdharA/ ThirumAlai AndAn

 

(5) Thiruvaranga PerumAL / AlavandhAr AlvAn

 

Then came our Udayavar , who gave us the Sri Bhashyam

and Eight other Sri Sookthis and grew the Sri SampradhAyam

to its magnificent heights through an illustrious line of

great AchArya SaarvabhoumAs protecting our matchless

Ubhaya VedAntha SampradhAyam .It has been adiyEn's privelge

to be associated with the two Kaimkaryams dedicated

to AchArya RaamAnujA with ALL of Your Support in the last

year of this millenium .

 

One is the AchArya RaamAnujA CD ROM in two versions

( Vadakalai and Tenkalai ) and the other is the Rathna

SatAri Kaimkaryam that is just getting underway and

racing towards completion in the next six weeks

for SamarpaNam at AchArya RaamAnujA Sannidhi at

Melkote after traveling through ThiruviNNagar ,

Srirangam, ThirumAlirumchOlai and Srivilliputthur

during the first two weeks of the month of

February , 2000 .

 

February 5 is when Thai AmAvAsyai and SravaNam

come together.It will be a great BhAgyam if

the first stage of the samarpaNam at ThiruviNNagar

can take place on this ThiruvONam day . February 9 is

the day when Revathi constellation , the Janma Nakshathram

of SriranganAthA , is in ascendance .It will be

another great Bhaagyam , if the Dhivya Dampathis

of Srirangam will decide that the SatAri be blessed at

their CharaNa kamalams and uLL Desikan sannidhi on Feb 9.

February 10 is the MahA samprOkshaNam at Sri Villiputthur

at NaachiyAr ThirumALikai. Asmath AchAryan ,HH

Srimath Azhagiya Singar will be there for blessing

this Kaimkaryam . After that day , it will be

a blessing to travel to ThirumAlirumchOlai ,

have the 1000 vessel AkkAra Vadisil presentation to

the Lord and afterwards present the SatAri to Azhagar

and then move with the blessed SatAri on to

Melkote for the final SamarpaNam of the Nava Rathna

kachitha SatAri that Swami Desikan saluted in his

Sri RanganAtha PaadhukA Sahasram so eloquently .

 

Three more BhakthAs have expressed their interest

to support this Kaimkaryam . AdiyEn is delighted

to acknowledge their additional support . It is

not proper to say that it is too late for

such Kaimkaryams .If any other BhakthA wants

January 3, 2000).

gems on the SatAri . AdiyEn's personal thanks to

every one of you for your magnificent support.

 

The Kaimkaryam will commence at Chennai

on January 3 , 2000 ,KrishNa Paksha DwAdasi day ,
