Guest guest Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha For all those Shri Vaishnavites who understand Tamil and who are eager to read a wonderful research book on Shri Andal's Thiruppavai (with references to purvacharya granthams and no self introduced explanations). Interested people may read the mail below. Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan, Lakshmi Narasimhan ---- vishnupriya_vp Tuesday, December 17, 2002 09:30:07 nrusimhan Sangatthamizh Malai Dear Shri Narasimhan, As I see the messages coming in that talk about margazhi masam and Shri Andal, I thought this would be the right time to let you all know about a book authored by Shrimathi Kothai Venkatapathy (Grand Daughter of Shri U.Ve Karappangadu Venkatachar Swami). The book has been named as "Sangatthamizh Maalai".This is totally a research work on Andal's Thiruppavai & naachiyar Thirumozhi which describes the greatness of SriAndal. The research covers various topics like, Why Thiruppavai is considered as "Vedam anaithukkum vitthu" and various reasons why Shri Andal was described as "Azhwargal tham seyalai vinji nirkum thanmayalai" by Shri Manavala Mamunigal.This work is mainly intended to make people realise the importance & greatness of Thiruppavai & Sriaandal as the meanings are explained in a simple way & in understandable form.This book is in tamil. I have 6 copies of this book with me. I reside in New Jersey and my address is below. In case I run out of copies then the only way to get these copies are by requesting Shrimathi Kothai Venkatapathy who resides in India. The azhagiasingar madam has also got copies of this book.The cost of this book is $10 (excluding shipping) and has been priced so low only with the intention that all the money that comes from the sale of these copies would be COMPLETELY used only for Shri Andal Kainkaryam. Shrimathi Kothai Venkatapathy has already done many Andal Kainkaryams like Re-constructing the Andal's Sannadhi, construction Noodhana Kannadi Arai in Mylapore Madhavaswamy sannidhi, made a new Parangi Narkali for Shri Villiputthur Andal, contributed new Shotashaupachara sets including Samaram Thiruvalavattu etc to Shri Villiputthur Andal, to name a few.

No intent to promote some unknown book, that is not useful to Shri Vaishnavites using this list.
