Dear Bhagavatha Bandhus:

 

It gives us immense pleasure to announce the release of the next issue of the

Vedics Magazine, Ramanuja Darshanam Vol 2, Issue 1. The new issue is very

special because it commemmorates the thiru nakshatram (birth day) of swAmy

kUrathAzhwAn, a preceptor of our hoary lineage whose contributions and life defy

description. The magazine may be accessed online at

It is important to note that AsthikAs may to the magazine at a special

price of $10 per year for a limited time by clicking on the link

The new issue details an insightful, succinct biography of swAmy kUrathAzhwAn by

Sri U Ve E S BhuvarAhachar swAmy, an eminent scholar familiar to many in the

sampradAyam, and articles by such stalwarts as Sri Badri nArAyaNa bhaTTar swAmy

(a direct descendant of swAmy kUrathAzhwAn) and Sri PB Rajahamsam swAmin.

 

An important new initiative has been begun, with the serialization of Dr. V V

Ramanujam's (Editor, YathirAja pAduka) wonderful transliteration of the Very

Compassionate (parama kAruNikar) vyAkhyAna chakravathi swAmy periyavAchchAn

piLLai's uplifting commentary for gadya trayam. Gadya trayam is verily

considered to be swAmy emperumAnAr's sAmpradAyic magnum opus. We plan to

serialize other important sAmpradAyic works in English, and your kind support /

participation would be greatly appreciated.

 

Subscribers to the Vedics Magazine will receive the print copy of the new issue

within the next two weeks by mail.
