Guest guest Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 SrI: Further to my earlier note requesting Sri Rajagopalan of Chennai to take over the responsibilites for creating the dhivya dEsam trust , staffing it and adminstering it , I would like to share with you soem thoughts on priorities for discussion purposes . More knowledgable devotees are requested to refine it . AbhimAna sthalams are deliberately left out in this count of 108 dhivya dEsams . There are 40 ChOLa dEsams , 18 PaanDya Naadu sthalams , 13 MalayALa dhivya dEsams , 2 Nadu Naadu ,, 22 ThoNDai Nadu, 12 Vada Nadu sthalams and 2 outside BhU Lokam ( THIRUPPARAMAPADHAM AND THIRUPPAARKKADAL) . That leaves us 106 dhivya dEsams . We can stay away from dhivya desams , where (A) things are fine (B) too far away for regular visits © not necessary because these temples have their own controls in place . Let me elaborate : A . Thirpaathis/PrArTanA Sthalams and others , which are not in need : 1. Thirumala/Thiruppathi 2. ThiruviNNagar/Oppiliappan Koil 3-11. Nava Thiruppathis coverd by the TVS Family Trusts 12. Srirangam 13.

Koodal Azhagar 21. ThirumAlirumchOlai 22-34 . Thirteen MalayALa Naattu Thiruppathis , where Tantric AarAdhanam takes place and are well cared for by NambhUdhris or Potthi Brahmins .One can not go near these sannidhis unless one has orthodox appearance . 35-44 : 12 Vada Naattu ThiruppathigaLs including Ahobilam and Thirumala/Thiruppathi . 45-46: Nadu Naattu Thiruppathis : ThirukkOvalUr ( HH Local Jeeyar supervision) and Thiruvaheendhrapuram 47. Annan Koil or ThriuvellakkuLam seems to be well supported for AarAdhanam . 48. Kaanchi Varadarajar Temple 49. Thirukkadan Mallai ( Popular Tourist route) 50. Thiruneermalai 51. Thirukkadigai 52. ThirukkaNNapuram 53. Thirunaahai 54. KaazhiccheerAma ViNNagaram 55.ThirucchitthirakkUdam ( Tillai) 56.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 SrI: Dear SrIman VarahAchAry : Inputs based on field visits and discussions with SthalatthArs is the best route to make these choices . The sthalatthArs might make an impassioned plea . with limited funds , it is not going to be easy to cover all requests at the same time . Let us hope that there will be significant support to extend the outreach . Intutively , It appears to me that the Dhivya Desams of ThirunAngUr-SerkAzhi Thiruppathis are high priority choices . Your visit will help to assess the latest on their status . May the dhivya dampathis bless Your efforts ! V.Sadagopan - Vasudevan Varahachary Oppiliappan Friday, March 16, 2007 8:24 AM Re: Proposed Dhivya dEsam Kaimakryams D/Sadagopanji As informed earlier I am planning a visit ti SIRGAZHI (to see three DDs around NANGUR), as per the information recd. from Shri. Geethacharyan (reference by Madam Rohini). I will personally assess the situatuion and will give a feed back on this subject.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 SrI: Dear Sriman Desikan : Thanks very much for your note. Your suggestion is most welcome and Sriman Varahachary will be able to meet this sthalatthAr at Vaikuntha ViNNagaram temple on April 1 , when he will be there for the initiation of the ThirunAngUr dhivya dEsa Kaimakryam . If all the devotees performing Kaimakryams at this set of dhivya dEsams can cooperate and share infirmation to avoid duplication , we can realize an effective and durable Kaimkaryam , which can be replicated . Let us all help Sriman VaraahAcchAry and his team .
