Guest guest Posted January 30, 2001 Report Share Posted January 30, 2001 sri: sri padmavathi sametha srinivasa parabrahmane namaha srimathe ramanujaya namaha srimathe nigamantha maha desikaya namaha Dear Bhaktas, I was just chatting on this topic with my aunt today morning. Yes, the incident may be true. However, PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS NO BAD OMEN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS. Now refer Daya Shatakam of Swamy Desikan; ROOTAA VRUSHACHALA PATEH: PAADEH MUKA KANTHI PATRALACCHAAYAA KARUNEH SUKAYASI VINATAAN KATAKSHA VITAPAI: KARAAPACHEYA PALAI: Here, Swami desikan says that Dhayaa Devi is standing tall in Thirumalai representing the merciful aspect of Sri Venkateswara. She grows at the feet of the Lord of Venkatam and serves as His kalpaka tree that fulfills the wishes of those who pray to Him. His cool glances at the sight of His devotees cause the tree of Dhayaa Devi to send out tender shoots and ripe tasty fruits. Those,who worship at the sannidhi of Sri Venkateswara become beneficiaries of His Dhaya and enjoy the fruits of that Kalpaka tree. Hence, Swami Desikan says that the Karunaa Katakshams of the Lord of Thiruvenkatam yield indescribable riches to the devotees . His Dhaya makes Him eminently enjoyable. ========================= As you can comprehend from the above verse in Daya Shatakam, the LORD's GRACE IS ALWAYS ON US AND WILL NEVER LEAVE US. ===== Reasons why the thirumangalyam would have fallen: 1.)After thirumanjanam the koil bhattars (priests) would not have put in the mangalyam properly, there by causing it to fall. All other propositions would be absurd by the concept of reductio de absurdum. I request members not to belive or taken into some SLANDEROUS NEWS spread by some irresponsible or incorrigible public.
