Dear BhakthAs :

 

I am enclosing a note from Sriman V.N.VenakatanAthan ,

the Younger brother of Oppiliappan Koil Dr. V.N.VedAntha

Desikan .They are members of the Vangipuram NavanItham family

known for their very important kaimkaryams to Sri VaishNava

Community for many generations and are sishyAs of

HH ParavAkkOttai Andavan of PoundarIkapuram

Asramam.

 

This note is about the release of a new edition of

Swamy Desikan's magnum opus , "Srimath Rahasya Thraya

Saaram " by Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan at the niyamanam of

his AchArya Saarvabhouman , HH Srimath PoundarIkapuram

ANDavan , ParavakkOttai Gopala Desika MahA Desikan .

 

Dr. V.N.VedAntha Desikan Swamy's contributions

to Sri Vaishnava Community are well known and

very much appreciated .His tireless kaimkaryams

to help us understand the significance of Ubhaya

VedAntha Granthams , Sri Sookthis of AchAryALs

span over many years. His depth of traditional

scholarship, command of three languages ( Sanskrit,

Tamil and English ) and clarity of style to present

complex topics have been appreciated by every one

who has had access to his monographs and postings

in Sri VaishNavite Journals like Sri Nrusimha PriyA

et al.His two volumes on Swamy NammAzhwAr's

ThiruvAimozhi is a land mark contribution in

that it distills the essence of our PoorvAchAryA's

commentaries . His monograhs on Sri RanganAtha PaadhukA

Sahasram , Sri VishNu Sahasra Naamam , Swamy Desikan's

SthOthra Granthams are treasures to gain

a clear understanding of the essence of Parama

Vaidhika Sri VaishNava Darsanam .

 

Please let me know of your interest in acquiring

a copy of his recent release on Srimath Rahasya Thraya

Saaram described below or other monographs by him so

that we can try to get them to you at Chennai or

have it shipped to you at Singapore or Middle east

or USA .

 

Any funds raised form your support will be channeled

to the forthcoming 80th Birth day celebration of

HH Srimath PoundarIkapuram Aasramam at Srirangam

and release of future Sri Sookthis of our great

PoorvAchAryAs .

 

Sriman Murali Rangaswamy , a direct disciple of

HH Poundarikapuram Andavan is serving as a

central point of contact for the Aasramam

at USA . Sri MadhavakkaNNan is serving a similar role at

Singapore . Sri V.N.VenakatanAthan , the younger

brother of Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan is the main

coordinator in India for the organization of

the forthcoming Special 80th birth day celebrations

of the revered AchAryan.

 

On that blessed Panguni RohiNi day ( March 30, 2001) ,

the eminent YathisvarALs from Sri Matam and ParakAla Matam

will be at Srirangam with their ancient AarAdhana

Moorthys ( Sri MalOlan and Sri HayagrIva BhagavAN

others are expected to participate in this important event.
