Sri Satagopan svami mentioned about the celebrations for Acharya

Ramanuja's 1000th Thirunakshatram in 2017 AD (16 years from now)

in a recent post

 

Our generation would be really very fortunate to be present when

these celebrations take place.By that time we should try to evolve and

put up a permanent mechanism in place by which regular poojai's as per the

respective aagamas are held in all the 106 Divya desams.There are still

many temples in chola nadu and kerala in a very bad condition(liasion with

authorities in kerala (with the local devoswom board/namboodaris) to

improve the reqd Divya Desams there;funding needed etc can be considered)

 

Regarding DD's in Tamil Nadu we already know of efforts underway

to support and improve DD's(Ref:-Sri Varadhan's articles in july 2000)

These efforts have to be acceralated as there might be some temples still

to be covered.Most of the vada nadu desams are visited by

many in large numbers (with the possible execption of maybe Naimisaranyam

and devaprayagai)so they may not need much attention apart from the two

mentioned above

 

It is very distressing to repeatedly learn that

vastrams are not available for perumal in some DD's;materials for

poojai and prasadam are not there in some etc.we should try to put

a permanent end! to this problem before Svami Emperumanar's 1000th

Thirunakshatram.

 

Svami Emperumanar before shedding his mortal coil and

ascent to paramapadam,visited all the 106 Divya Desams and personally

regulated/corrected the procedures and saw to it that the Aradhanai to

Emperuman was being conducted properly at all these places.Srivaishnavas

at that time did everything to protect and preserve the tradition in our

temples against the sustained attacks of Invaders like Malik kafur.

These DD's are our priceless heritage -Azhwar perumayium padalum perra

sthalams

We should all join together to make regular poojai possible in all

Divya desams permanently before Svami's 1000th thirunakshatram.
