Guest guest Posted March 21, 2002 Report Share Posted March 21, 2002 Swamy Deshikan Thiruvadigale Sharanam !!! Paramahamsetyaadi Srimath Poundarikapuram Andavan Srimath Gopala Deshika Maha Deshikar's thirunakshatram was celebrated in a befitting manner at Srirangam on the 20th. The celebration was marked by Veda parayanams, Sadas and Upanyasams. It also saw Srimath Swamy honouring many eminent vidwans of the sampradayam with titles. Releases - A book featuring a collection of mangala stotrams was released by Swamy yesterday. A CD-ROM featuring Swamy's upanyasams on Paduka Sahasram Vol2 (shlokams 101-200) was also released. Srimath Poundarikapuram Andavan, Sri Srinivasa Maha Deshikan's 100th year of ascendence to the acharya peetam and asmad Swamy's 20th year of ascendence on to the holy acharya peetam was celebrated earlier on the 8th of this month. A Veda parayana goshti of 200 graced the occasion. Releases - Commentary on Sri Deshika Sahasranamam of Thirukkudanthai Deshikan. Commentary on Kanninun Shiruththambu of Thirukkudanthai Deshikan. These gems will be available at the Ashramam from the 2nd of April. Please reserve your copies as they are in heavy demand. in Swamy words, "Anybody studying Deshika Sahasranama Bhashyam would have the benefit of knowing the entire esoterical concepts of our sampradayam". Releases - Swamy was compassionate enough to release another work in Englidh titled "Srimath Gopala Deshika Vimshati". This is a celebration of Swamy's glories and was written to mark Swamy's 20th year (Vimshati) of ascendence to the peetam. There is a second reason behind Vimshati. Deshikan extols Kannan in Gopala Vimshati. Since our Swamy is veritably the incarnation of Kannan again on this Earth, it is very appropriate to celebrate him again with a Vimshati. vAzhi vyAkhyAmuddirak kai !!! vedAnthasUricharaNau sharaNam prapadye !!!
