EDITORIAL

Dear Bhagavatas:

The last 3 or 4 weeks have been very hectic for me.

• Hope you would have enjoyed the postings on Tiruppavai on " One-a-day "

basis throughout the month of Margazhi.

• A series of lectures were arranged by Bhagavatas in Atlanta area on

consecutive Saturdays on “Hanumat Prabhaavam” in connection with Hanumat

Jayanti, Aarthi Prabandham of Sri MaNavaaLa Maamunigal and Andal Prabhaavam

in connection with Andal TirukkalyaaNa MahOtsavam in the Hindu Temple of

Atlanta. ADiyEn was also commanded to give a short talk on the Significance

of “Tirumanjanam” to PerumaaL.

Excerpts of these will be posted in subsequent issues.

• On 20th January 2006, aDiyEn visited Cleveland to perform the “Gruha

pravEsam” of my daughter’s new home there.

 

By the grace of Divya Dhampatis and the blessings of Achaaryas, all the

above events got completed successfully.

 

SANDHYAVANDANAM CLASSES

 

Some Bhagavatas have been expressing their desire to learn performing

“Tiruvaradana kramam”. I suggested that they should first learn doing

“Sandhya Vandanam”, if they have had their Upanayanam and for some reason

had missed doing that “Nitya karma”. I assured them that they need not feel

shy for the omission and that when one was heading in the wrong direction,

the Lord allowed a “U” turn. But, the bottom line was that once they start

doing now, they should make a firm resolution not to skip doing under any

circumstances.

 

I was surprised to see at least a dozen people who evinced interest in

learning (in fact, re-learning). I must congratulate them for their honesty

in acknowledging their omissions, for their uninhibited earnestness to join

the classes and for their firm commitment to strictly observe the Nityakarma

in future.

 

Accordingly, we commenced classes on “Yajus – Sandhya Vanadanam” on 20th

January 2006..

 

A hand out was distributed to them by way of introduction and followed it up

with a presentation on the significance and necessity to do this important

rite.

 

We include in this Issue the text of the handout for the benefit of other

aspirants who may not be able to attend in person.

 

THE CLASSES ARE CONDUCTED ABSOLUTELY FREE PURELY AS BHAGAVAT KAINKARYAM.

 

THE CLASSES WILL BE HELD FROM 11.00 am TO 12.00 noon ON SUCCESSIVE SATURDAYS

FROM 4th FEBRUARY 2006.

 

Sri N. Krishnamachariar Swami of Chicago has kindly contributed an article

on the “Upa-nayanam” ritual. We are glad to feature the same in this issue.
