Guest guest Posted October 18, 2000 Report Share Posted October 18, 2000 Sri: Srimathe Ramanujaya Namah: Srimathe Nigamantha Mahadesikaya Namah: Sri Vaishnavas in Singapore celebrated Swamy Desikan, Thirukudanthai Desikan and Adhivan Satakopa Yateendra Mahadesikan Thirunakshatrams on Oct 08, 2000 at Sri Sridhraran's residence. The event started by reciting Thiruvaimozhi (10.9 and 10.10 ) and Ramanuja Nootrandhadhi to conclude the 4000 Divyaprabandha parayanam which was started by Sri Sridharan, Sri Anand and Sri Mukundhan few months back at Sri Srinivasa Temple. After concluding the DP, Sri Hari gave a electrifying speech on Vishnu Gantavatharam and highlighted vedantha works by Swamy Desikan. Following Sri Hari's speech, Perumal ThiruAradhanam and satrumurai continued as usual. During prasadham distribution, Sri Hari announced the official launch of the new web site http://www.visishtadvaita.net This site will provide fundamentals of Sri Visishtadvaita Philosophy and Practice by translating Bagavath Ramanuja's works like Vedartha Sangraham, Vedantha Saram, Vedantha Deepam and Swamy Desikan's works like Para matha Bangham, Nyaya Siddhanjanam, Nyaya Parisuddhi, Tatva Muktha Kalapam, etc. This site will also provide audio and video clippings for Nitya Karmanushtanams, Perumal ThiruAradhanam, etc. After the website launch, children started their devotion to Swamy Desikan. Smt Kanchana gave a wonderful dance for ThiruPavai pasurams. After an excellent short skit by group of children (Chi Vaagheesh, Chi Keshavan, Chi Govind and Sow. Srividya and Sri Anand) on Swamy Desikan's life history, Swamy Desikan's stotram recition competition " Orondru Thane Amaiyado " started. Stotras like Dayasathakam, Hayagreeva Stotram, Shodasayudha stotram was recited by children. Sri Madhavakkannan and Sri Hari awarded the certificates (from HH Poundareekapuram Andavan Swamy) to the children. Sri Vaishnavas expressed their devotion to Sriman Narayana by singing songs on Divya Dampathi. The goshti recited Swamy Desikan's prabandhams like Adaikkalapathu, Prabandhasaram. Sri Vaishnavas gave excellent speeches on Swamy Desikan's works. Sri Mukundhan spoke about Vairagya of Swamy Deskan . Sri Uppili Sridhar spoke about saranagathi by explaining Adaikkalapathu. Sri Vedantham spoke about Paramatha Bangham and focussed on how Swamy Desikan refuted other philosophies. Sri Sridharan and Sri Madhavakkannan spoke about Sri Adhivan Satakopa Yateendra MahaDesikan and Sri Thirukudanthai Desikan's life history and their works on Sri Visishtadvaita. Sri Madhavakkannan highlighted the importance of thrikala sandhayavandhanam and the sins for not doing it. Sri Sundarajan read an article on Swamy Desika Odam which was excellent. Sri Vijakumar touched upon lucidly the daily routine of a srivaishnava describing Swamy Desikan's work " Sri Vaishanavas Dinasari " The goshti concluded the event by reciting Vishnu SahasraNamam and Desika Mangalam. Thanks to Smt & Sri Sridharan for organizing a mega event. Swamy Desikan ThiruvadigaLE SaraNam Regards Ramanuja Dasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
