Dear Sri Madhavan :

 

I am also in favor of anadhyayana observance from

Thirumangai Mannan's Thirunakshathram to

KurEsar's Thirunakshathram . There may be different

observances by different Matams & SvayamAchAryAs.

 

As Srimath Azhagiya Singar's Thiruvadi , I follow

the Sri Matam observances in Anadhyayana Kaalam .

This is the anusanthAna Kramam at Sri Matam during

Anadhyayana Kaalam :

 

The observancs are different for the Mornings and

the evenings at Sri Matam .

 

The Prabhandha anusanthAnam and SaRRUmuRais

are also different for the entire month of Marghazhi

and for days outside Marghazhi during this anadhyayanam

period at Sri Matam . Here they are :

The above list A thru D gives details of what are not recited as

well as what are permitted . Anadhyayanam originated when

Swamy NammAzhwAr's dhivya MangaLa vigraham was brought

from AzhwAr Thirunahari for adhyayana uthsavam at Srirangam

and returned back at the end of this uthsavam , a period of two

months ( approximately). Since AzhwAr was away , there was no

recitation at the dhivya dEsam temples .and at homes .

 

As a part of the Pancha kaala PrakriyA , there is alloted time for

SvAdhyAyam . This time certainly can be used to reflect upon

the commentaries of PoorvAchAryAs .
