Dear Devotees,

 

Due to our Bhagyam, the FIRST THREE maasa-Tirunakshatrams of our Temple

Acharya, are falling on Weekends, Sunday Dec 19th 2004, Saturday Jan 15th

2005 and Saturday Feb 12th 2005.

 

Recently I had a lengthy talk with the Kinkarya-paras and Sannithi Archakas

of Sri Sannithi, and the following has been suggested to be followed at

our Sri

Ranganatha Temple.

 

After due Nitya-anusandhaana paaraayanam, let there be Thirumanjanam (

abhishekam ) to the Silver Sa-jeeva-Pratishthaapita-Acharya Utsava Murthy,

with Veda Paraayanam and Nava-Kalasa- Avahana-Poorvaka

Sodasa-Upachara-Yukta

Abhishekam with appropriate Mangala dravyas like, Yogurt, Milk, Honey,

Coconut water, Turmeric powder, Sandal Powder and other Parimala Dravyas

and

concluded with Sahasra-Dhaara-snapanam.

 

After appropriate Abhisheka-anantara-upacharas, proper Maryada to be

accorded with Parivattam with the Sesha-vastra of Divya-Dampatis and

Arulappadu will be the order followed by Sri-paada teertham and Prasadam

distribution.

 

You are all invited to come and receive the Sree-paada teertham on this

soul-cleansing mahat-seva to an aachaarya-purusha, happening outside the

punya-bhumi.

 

Srimad Azhagiyasingar Thiruvadigale Saranam.

Adiyen,

Venkat Kanumalla of Sri Ranganatha Temple, Pomona, New York, USA.
