AchArya Vandhana kruthi

[Guest guest]

Dear Sri Matam SishyAs :

 

Celebrating our revered AchAryan is a great

bhAgyam .The more we do it , the greater is

our soubhAgyam . His limitless kaaruNyam and anugraham

are blessing us through his KaalkshEpams , which are like

a flow of nectar . Here is my prayer to our revered AchAryan :

There is another prose type of AchArya Vandhanam

that I would like to place at the sacred feet of

AchAryan.Those , who are proficient in Sanskrit

are requested to pardon my errors and aceept it

in the spirit of reverence with which it is presented.

Swami Desikan's ukthis , particularly from YathirAja

Sapthathi , have been the source of adiyEn's inspiration :

Adiyen's salutations are unto this great AchAryan ,

bhEram every year .Vruthi also means the act of dance .

Our AchAryan's paadha kamalams are engaged in the act

of dance as he performs the mangaLAsAsanam at

the nava Narasimha sannidhis and supervises

the Thirumanjanamsa at those sannidhis on the SvAthi days.

AdiyEn's salutations are to him , who shines with

the mature (paripakkuvamAna )intellect dealing

Dhivya Prabhandhams and rahasyArthams as

( Parichitha gahanA ).

AdiyEn's salutations are to him , who is celebrated

Vaidhikha GhOshti ).

AdiyEn's salutations are to that peak of Jn~Anam ,

VairAghyam and AnushtAnam . Like the PakshirAjan

Sri Sookthis .
