Dear BhakthAs:

dandavath praNAmams at His sacred feet .

May He continue to bless us all with His

anugraham for many years to come and serve

I will jot down few information points for

the the next few days starting from today :

 

1. Number of you have supported the AzhwArs and

108 Dhivya Desam CD ROM project. Significant

work has been completed now . I received yesterday

the pilot version of the CD ROM containing

ThiruppANa AzhwAr's dhivys Charitham , AmalanAdhipirAN

Prabhandham , the three dhivysa dEsams that he sung about.

Plans are to release this pilot version at the coming

Adhyayana Uthsavam appropriately at Sri RanganAthaa

Temple , Pomona on NammAzhwAr Moksham day ( Dec 30).

The full version will be released during the course of

the next few weeks .The pilot version has beautiful

graphics , audio on paasurams and an excellent coverage

of His dhivya charithram.Special effects are beautiful .

88.5MB memory was needed to cover the Charitham of

ThiruppANar and AmalanAdhipiraan Prabhandham .

AnithA Ratnam of the TVS Family is having a special

dance drama in front of ThirukkuRungudi Nambi .This is

an age old tradition at ThirukkuRungudi. This celebration

goes back to Sri ParAsara Bhattar's famous recitation of

Kaisika PurANam at Srirangam . adiyEn will summarize

the meanings of the Fourty Thirukkurungudi Paasurams

bequeathed to us by PeriyAzhwAr , Thirumazhisai,
