Translation of Sri S.V.S.Raghavan's posting ******************************************** " There are many precious commentaries for ThiruppAvai. The AaasthAna VidvAn of Sri Matam , Saaraj~na SirOmaNi , PerukkAraNai ChakravarthyAchAr Swamy has blessed us with a commentary of commentaries entitled , GodhA Sookthi SudhAsvAdham . This is a commentary is insatiable even if one reads it again and again (Padikka Padikka tevittAtha Urai). It will be a great help to the VidvAns , who give ThiruppAvai UpanyAsams.It has been written in chaste Tamil for the benefit of those , who may not be familiar with Sanskrit. This MahAn has included many rare meanings that has not been covered so far in his monograph.The svaapadesams have been covered in beautiful prose in an exquisite manner that has not been accompished sofar. There is no doubt whatsoever in my Mind that Mahaa Lakshmi will dance with joy in every house that has this monograph . This book has 608 pages and has been priced at Rs 150 per copy . Postal charges in India is additional 50 Rupees . This book can be obtained at the following address: Sri P.M.
