Humble pranam to all devotees:

 

We are blessed to have upanyasam on "Sri vaikuNTa EkAdasi--its significance" on

saturday Jan 03, vaikuNTa EkAdasi dAy from srI badrinArAyaNa parAsara bhattar

svAmi from srIrangam.

 

Date and Time: Saturday, Jan 03, 2004 11AM CST.

 

Here is a brief introdution about srI badrinArAyaNa parAsara bhattar svAmi

 

=========================================================

 

srI badrinArAyaNa parAsara bhattar svAmi comes from

the great lineage of svAmi koorattAzhvAn and svAmi

parAsara bhattar. svAmi koorattAzhvAn and svAmi

parAsara bhattar are known to everyone, and their

immeasurable contributions to the rAmAnuja sampradAyam

is very well known.

 

 

 

srI badrinArAyaNa bhattar continues the service to the

rAmAnuja sampradAyam as one of the current descendants

of svAmi koorattAzhvAn. He has undergone kAlakshEpam

for many years (and is continuing to undergo

kAlakshEpam in advanced topics) from great scholars in

srIrangam (such as vaikuNTavAsi "kOrukoNda" parAsara

bhattar, srIrangam srIbhAshya vidwAn srI

narasimhAchAriAr, srI vELukkudi krishNan svAmi). Even

at a young age, he has been running a pATasAla "bhattar kuzhAm" in

srIrangam, where he teaches nAlAyira divya

prabhandham, stOtras and rahasyAs to more than 50

students every day. These students range from young

children to retired people. svami also runs a library "gnAna pirAn" which houses

the treasures our sampradaya in the form of books. srI badri nArAyaNa

bhattar's upanyAsams are of the utmost brilliance and

simplicity. His renditions of svAmi parAsara bhattar's

thirumanjana kattiyams are said to be very wonderful

by learned scholars. In fact, recently an elder of the

sampradAyam said "If one was wondering how the

child-genius svAmi parAsara bhattar would have looked

like in his years, one need to look no further than

srI badri svAmi!".

 

In spite of his extremely busy schedule on vaikuNTa

EkAdasi dAy, svAmi has agreed to spend an hour and a

half with us in sharing the anubhavam of Sri Vaikunda Ekadasi.

 

We urge everyone to attend this upanyAsam and immerse themselves in the nectar

of

bhavad guNa anubhaavam and bhAgavatha guNa anubhavam.
