Guest guest Posted January 13, 2000 Report Share Posted January 13, 2000 Sri: Dear Sri Srinath, It is very TRUE! Sri Sadagopan's posts have inspired me to a great extent, when I joined bhakti list in 97. Since then, it has always been in the ascending order of quality and content. He is "vaRRadha jeeva nadhi..". Just an info. When adiyEn was mentioning to adiyEn's AchAryan, Srimad Poundareekapuram ANdavan during last vacation, about the home pages and Sri Anbil mama's inputs for Swamy Desika and Sri Ramanuja page, Sri Murali's posts on Sri Padhuka sahasram for Padhuka sahasram page, and the excellent commentary of Sri Sadagopan on Padhuka sahasram, along with Sri Uttamoor Swamy's commentary and that of Sri Thirukkudnathai Andavan's, etc.., Swamy immediately said "Sri Sadagopan... Oppiliappan Koil Sadagopan thaanE... gettikaaran... ". I was pleasantly surprised at Sri Sadagopan's popularity (or fame?) even among Yathis. (though he is a sishya of Ahobila Mutt, other AchAryas too are aware of him, like Sri Anbil Ramaswamy is known by almost all Srivaishnava Vidhwans and Yathis.) So, these two great stalwarts of bhakti list, are NOT only known by Vidwans and Yathis, are also easily accessible even by "selamilla siRiyOn, siRiya jnAnathhan" like adiyEn. adiyEn takes graet liberty in asking any thing from them. May Sriya" Pathi bless these two for amny more years of BhUlOka vaasam, so that we are benefitted (selfish, as usual!) Regards Narayana Narayana ----Original Message Follows---- schakrav bhakti Sri. Sadagopan Thu, 13 Jan 2000 12:19:25 -0600 (CST) Dear members: Sri. Sadagopan's recently posted translations of Sri venkatesha prapatti, stotram and maNgaLam, alongwith his explanations and translations for thiruppallANdu and nAlAyiyra thaniyangaL are very useful and revealing. As a matter of fact, such acknowledgements are long overdue. The soulabhyam and proficiency with with Sri. Sadagopan has been translating both Sanskrit as well as Tamil compositions into English during the last two years for the bhakti and malolan lists is extremely awe-inspiring. That SrivaishNavas in this part of the world have amongst them, a scholar of Sri. Sadagopan's calibre is simply too good to be true. And just as we have the soubhAgyam to benefit from the riches of his knowledge, so we had the durbhAgyam of not having him in our midst during the thiruvadhyayana sEvai last December in NJ. I personally have learnt several things just by "speed reading" through Sri. Sadagopan's translations during the last year and half. All I can offer in return, is this message of gratitude. May perumAL's anugraham always be with Sri. Sadagopan and may we all continue to benefit from his numerous writings.
