Guest guest Posted August 15, 2001 Report Share Posted August 15, 2001 Dear Hari Bakthas, On this auspicious Ekadasi day when the mind is on the Lord, in this holy month of Shraavana, after many holy functions in this month, such as Sri Rayara Aradhane, Sri Krishnaashtami, I am placing before you a book on Sundarakanda Nirnaya by Sri Madhwacharya, as a part (7th chapter) of his largest work, Mahabharatha Tatparya Nirnaya. Just like the Anu Bhashya book that was very successfully promoted recently in this forum, this book too was recently published and released by Sri Madhwacharya Seva Sangha, Madras. A total of 500 copies had been printed of which 50 copies are with me now for sale out side of India. Price per copy is $5. The cost of publishing the 500 copies, sambhavana to the scholarly contributors to this book etc had already been fully met by a humble contribution from the families of my brother Srinivasan (GV) and myself to Sri Madhwacharya Seva Sangha, Madras. However, the total proceeds of sale of each copy at a price of $5 per copy will be given to this seva organization in Madras to promote further publication activities to continue to bring out simple books in Madhwa philosophy. This book (size 5.5 " X 8.5 " , 91 pages) contains 2 parts. Part-1 presents 50 slokas of Sundarakanta Nirnaya by Sri Madhwacharya, each sloka is given in Sanskrit, Kannada, Telugu and Tamil, with commentary for each sloka in English. Part-1 has 58 pages. The rest of 33 pages comprise Part-2, titled as Vayusourabha and contain the following: Sri Mukhyapranashtakam in Sanskrit by Sri Vadiraja Thirtha, Sri Yantrodharaka Mukhyaprana Stothra (Sanskrit) by Sri Vyasathirtha, Sri Mukhyaprana Avayava Sthothra (Sanskrit) from Narada Purana, Sri Mukhyaprana Devara Samkethaka Sandesa in Kannada by Late Sri Vidyamaanya Thirtha, Sundarakandalli Hanumanthana Gunagalu in Kannada by Sri Sagri Raghavendra Upadhyaya, Sundarakanda Ramayana-Valmikiyalli mathu Nirnayadalli in Kannada by Sri Vidwan Hayavadana Puranik, Hamsa Manthra in English by Dr. Venkatesh Achrya and Sri Mukhyaprana Mahimai in Tamil by Sri Nagaraja Rao. Both Parts 1 and 2 comprise one single copy of the book. Please send me an e-mail giving your home mailing address and I will mail the book(s) to you. Your support means a lot to small and worthy projects such as this project. Please make your checks payable to my name and mail your checks to my home address given below.

Once again, thank you for your continued support. Namaskaragalu.
