Digest Number 807

[Guest guest]

Dear Meera,

 

Appanacharya as mentioned here is not the disciple of Sri Raghavendra Thirtha,

but a great human being belonging to Tirupathi who was instrumental in starting

this 'Metlostava' practise at Tirupathi. He is

Project officer in 'Dasa Sahitya project' of Tirumala Tirupathi Devastanams

(TTD) of Tirumala.

Since i also belong to this holy town, i get to see and listen to him often when

i goto Tirupathi.

Appanacharya ,as far as my knowledge goes belongs to parampara of 'Guru

Jagannadha dasaru' in the

dasakoota.

 

In Hari seva,

That devotion and the fruits of the actions that come to me are due to His

recurring grace "
