Guest guest Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 To all the Aastheekaas worldwide in general and to all the Andavan sishyaas in particular adiyen makes this appeal. For the convenience of the pilgrims thronging Thiruppullani to have a Holy dip in the Aadhi Sethu and to have a dharshan of Sri Aadhi Jagannaatha PerumaL and Sri Dharbasayana Raman,on the Niyamanam of His Holiness Srimath Aandavan Sri Rangaramaanuja Mahaa Desikan Swami , a convenient Ashramam is to be constructed at Thiruppullani , the Bhoomi Puja for which was done on 27/6/06 and the construction begins on 6/7/06. The cost of constructing the spacious Ashramam, to be constructed on nearly 5200 sq.feet , is estimated around 25 lakhs of Indian Rupee. It is needless to say that for every Astheeka- (for Srivaishnavas specifically) to take bathe in this Holy Sethu atleast once in their life is must as , according to poorvaachaaryaars, this Sethu is the Holiest of all Holys due the Thiruvadi Sambantham of Lord Sri Rama due to the fact of which it remains as sakala paapa dhosha nivaaraNi.That's why it is said in our PuraaNams, feeding one at this Holy place (Oru KavaLam) is equivalent to feeding one lakh at GayA, two lakhs at VAraNasi,and seven lakhs atPrayaakai. I appeal to everybody to take part in this kainkaryam. His Holiness will be very happy if everybody helps according to their convenience. Of course the cost is estimated as 25 lakhs which may go up due to spiralling prices of materials.. But I request one thing. If the cost of construction is viewed as Twenty Five Lakhs it will be very big and keeping many of us away. But please consider that 25 lakhs is just made up of 2500 thousands. and if 2500 aastheekas donate Rs. 1000/- each it is very easy. and 25 lakhs will become a small amount. I earnestly appeal to everybody to liberally contribute to this kainkaryam and thus help the pilgrims to this Divya Desam, ThiruppullANi. Donations may be sent to The secretary, Sri Paduka Charities, Srirangam Srimad Andavan Ashramam, Desika Road, Mylapore, Chennai 600004 OR To Srirangam Srimad Andavan Ashramam, Desika Road, Mylapore, Chennai 600004 mentioning "For the construction of Ashramam at ThiruppullANi" For any clarifications, Sri RR (R.

Sevarthis residing in USA may kindly send their checks to Sri Ramanuja Mission Inc. specifying that the amount is earmarked for the construction of the Thiruppulllani Asramam.

Sevarthis in India desiring IT Exemption may send the cheques in favour of Sri Paduka Charities to the Asramam's address at Door No 31, Sir Desikachari Road, Mylapore, Chennai 600004.
