ThiruvahIndhrapuram RathnAngi Series: Part 99

SrI:

 

Dear BhakthAs:

 

THIS IS A ONE TIIME APPEAL AND REQUEST THE RESPECTED

FELLOW MODERATORS TO PERMIT THE RELEASE OF THIS NOTE.

 

THANKS.

 

The RathnAngi Kaimkaryam at ThiruvahIndhrapuram for Lord DevanAthan

is at an important stage. We need your help urgently.

 

One kilogram of Gold needs to be purchased quickly since the price of gold is

going up and up (~600 Rs or 15$ per gram) . Gold is to be beaten by craftsmen into

thin rolls and united together to form the layer unto which the gems are to be embedded.

 

We should assemble the gold before the PurattAsi SravaNam (October 5) ,

the Thirunaksahthrams of Swamy Desikan and Lord DevanAthan , who is

none other than Nadu Nattu SrinivAsan . This way , we can keep on track to complete

the Kaimkaryam for samarpaNam by the coming Thai Maasa SravaNam AT THE LATEST .

 

The Sacred feet of the Lord is getting readied first to hold on to it and recieve

His blessings to complete the rest of the Kaimkaryam . We are not going to let go

of those Thiruvadis until He shows us the way to complete this Kaimkaryam .

 

Here are some suggestions for your participation :
