Way back in the 1980s during my first visit to the USA, whenever I mentioned the word “Hinduism”, the first response of the Westerner (and even our own people who had lost their moorings to our traditions having settled here for long, not to speak of kids born and brought up here without an iota of exposure to our Sat Sampradayam was “Oh! I know. You are talking about Buddha”. These people did not know that Hinduism and Buddhism were poles apart. The next best bet was “Oh! I know! You are talking about Adhi Sankara”. This second category seems to have closer familiarity with “Hinduism”, thanks to aggressive marketing of vested interests, equating Hindu philosophy with just the Advaita philosophy. In the last few years, however, world populations have come to know about our great Acharyas like Bhagavad Ramanuja and Swami Desika as formidable forces to be reckoned with, recognized and revered. A very heartening news is that people who never ever heard of these names before now come together to celebrate Achaarya Vaibhavam Conferences in different cities (and temples, in particular) especially in USA, Bahrain, Kuwait, England, Indonesia, Singapore and other places on the Tiru Nakashatram days of these Acharyas. Participating in the study of Vedas, Saastras, StOtras and Azhwars’ Divya Prabhandams etc. organized by different SrivaishNava groups has become a routine these days. This is in no small measure due to the efforts of these various SrivaishNava groups that have been straining every nerve to disabuse false impressions and familiarize them with the life histories and works of these great Savants and the lineage of Acharyas of Sri Vaishnava Sat Sampradayam to which they belong. We are happy to submit that we at SDDS and SRS have been doing our little bit in this direction, like the proverbial squirrel in Srimad RamayaNa. Since the early settlers from India and their kids seem to have forgotten what is “Hinduism”, Bhaagavatas in Kuwait published my book “Hinduism Rediscovered” – a nearly 1000 pages book elegantly got up. This was released by His Holiness Srimad ParavakkoTTai Andavan, Poundarikapuram Swami Asramam at Sri Rangam on the occasion of his 84th Tirunakshatram on 28th March 2004 in the presence of H.H. Rangapriya Maha Desikan and an overwhelming audience comprising of all well known Acharyas and Scholars of our Sat Sampradayam. My other book “Myths, Miracles and Mysticism in Hinduism – What do they signify?” under the series “Explaining the Unexplained” published by Sri Ramanuja Mission Inc. USA and was released by H.H. Srirangam Srimad Andavan during his Saptadi celebrations on 6th June 2005. ===================================================================== The year under review saw the celebration of my Sathaabhishekam both in Atlanta, Georgia and Cleveland, Ohio by my children and large number of Bhagavatas and well wishers. I once again thank all those who participated in the events and also those who sent their kind greetings on the occasion. -- There cannot be any Bhaagavata in the entire world who does not know Sri Madhava Kannan Swami of Singapore who has been regaling us with his timely and well thought out articles in almost all the internet websites. He has kindly taken over as “Co- Moderator” of “Sri Ranga Sri”. Ever since his acceptance to take over, I have been totally relieved because of his exemplary handling of the duties as “de-facto” Moderator. And, practically, I have become a silent spectator on the sidelines! I look forward to the day when he would also be a “de-jure” Moderator. ==================================================================== Another major event during the period under review is the “Dwajasthama Kainkaryam” at “Tiru Anbil” Divyadesam as per the direction and immediate supervision of Asmad Acharyan, His Holiness Srimad Andavan, Paravkkottai Sri Gopala Desika Maha Desikan, Poundarikapuram Swami Asramam, Srirangam. I have no words to express my gratitude for His Holiness and for all those who helped in the successful conclusion of the mammoth effort. May Swami Desika bless this trend to grow from strength to strength in the days ahead and result in the phenomenal growth of Aastikyam everywhere. --- GROWTH OF MEMBERSHIP OF SRI RANGA SRI Thanks to the blessings of YathisrEshTas and Acharyas of Bhagavad Ramanuja – Swami Desika Sat Sampradayam and the encouragement of- - Moderators of sister Internet groups who hosted our Editorials in their sites. - Editors of Religious Journals in India who kindly provided us due publicity in their publications. - Recommendations of existing members for admitting their friends. - The new members who joined out of their own volition. Our membership has burgeoned to about 5000 thus MAKING IT THE LARGEST INTERNET GROUP”. It is seen that in an effort to reach such a vast audience, membership applications are flooding in to unmanageable magnitude. For the same reason, we are confronted with innumerable postings for “Moderation” and consequent featuring in “Sri Ranga Sri”. Even as it is, we are receiving a mind boggling number of queries because we only provide authentic, authoritative replies based on PramaaNams. We are constrained to restrict admission of new members. In spite of this, the list is growing! It is needless to say that this is ample testimony to the popularity of your Journal. ---- ISSUES RELEASED About 227 Regular issues of SRS have been released, so far 27 Issues of Vol. 1 15 Issues of Vol. 2 42 Issues of Vol. 3 35 Issues of Vol. 4 28 Issues of Vol. 5 30 Issues of Vol. 6 and 50 Issues of Vol. 7 ---- FEED BACK Although we receive feedback now and then, this does not seem to be sufficient. It is worth remembering that the authors who contribute do so out of their dedication and anxiety to share their knowledge and there is absolutely no commercial motive in their efforts. The only reward they may expect is a feedback of constructive criticism and words of encouragement which we feel they richly deserve. Nothing sustains their efforts more than this recognition by readers and nothing puts them off more than the seeming apathy of readers, as evidenced through the absence of expression of such appreciation. This disappointment is not confined to Contributors to SRS only but also to all other Internet groups. In the absence of such input, there is no way for them to improve their output! So, please “Be honest in your appreciation and constructive in your criticism”. To help you do this, we have catalogued the topics and shown the respective Volume / Issue in which they have appeared. Most of you would have perused them. If you have not done so or would like to re-view the same, you may do so NOW and give us the benefit of your valuable comments. You may indicate which serials or which articles you liked most and where you would like to offer suggestions for improvement. This will go a long way to help in improving the quality and content of your journal. Please send your response to -owner (And NOT to ) ---- GUIDELINES FOR CONTRIBUTORS Time and again, we invite kind attention of contributors to the guidelines in “Sri Ranga Sri” Issues 04/24 dated 06/05/03 and 04/25dated 06/06/03 and the amendment in 04/28 dated 07/29/03 (archived at Messages 2678, 2691 and 2903).
