Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 SvabhAnu Thai Swathi Dear BhakthAs: A "miracle " of sort happened today ! It happened on the same day ! Today , as you know is the Thirunakshathram of Abhinava Desika SrI UtthamUr Swamy. Two parcels arrived today at my house . Both gift parcels were from Bangalore . Both gifts center on Swamy Desikan . One is the erudite monograph of the great scholar in residence at Bangalore , U.Ve. Maha VidvAn , VedAnta Vidvanmani , Saasthra SampradhAya BhUshanmani , Desika Darsana ChUdAmaNi , VedAntha Vidhya Vageesa Dr.N.S. Aanantha Rangacharya Swamy entitled " Essence of Srimad Rahasyatraya Saaram ". I will write about this scholarly monograph that provides the quintesssence of RTS in the inimitable style of this compassionate AchAryan in greater detail in my next posting . The second release that arrived at my house is a brilliant CD ROM entitled " Chithra Desikeeyam " and it covers the Vaibhavam of Swamy Desikan's life and works . The gifted author is the young SrI Laskhmi Narasimhan Sridhar of Bangalore , who already gave us the enjoyable CD ROM on Sathyagalam and other KshEthrams in KarnAtaka recenty . SrI L.Sridhar's CD ROM is one of the most delightful and informative CD ROM that is available to VaishNavite children todate. The personal , one on one basis in which Sri Sridhar converses with the children and instructs them ably with beautiful images about the life and Vaibhavam of Swamy Desikan is simply brilliant . While the Srimad Rahasya Thraya Saaram (RTS) is addressing the needs of eager SrI VaishNavAs yearning to learn about the ripe upadEsams of Swamy Desikan through His magnum Opus , RTS , Chithra Desikeyam focuses on the information needs of VaishNavite children about our great AchAryan , Swamy Desikan . Both these "educational releases " meet a real , persisting need . Both are brilliant in their own ways addressing different age groups . I will write about each of them in greeater detail tomorrow . This note is just a note of announcement of these two brand new "educational releases " , which are going to make all of us and our families enriched and feel proud about our ancient darsanam and its AchAryAs , who have protected and preserved it to become the soul-nourishing nectar.
