IN THIS ISSUE:

1. “SRIMAD GOPALA DESIKA MAHA DESIKA VIMSATI” –

A POETIC TRIBUTE TO SRIMAD ANDAVAN OF

SRI POUNDARIKAPRAM SWAMI ASHRAMAM

(PRAKRITAM PONTIFF OF THE ASHRAMAM)

Part 17: Acharya Vaibhavam (Verse18)

By Sri C. G. Balaji {Sri Balaji is the grandson of Sri N.S. Anantha

Rangachar Swami of Bangalore and a Sishya of Parakala Matam}

--------------------------

2. “RAMAPIRANAI KARPOM”

EXCERPTS FROM BOOK BY H.H. SRIMAD ANDAVAN OF

“SRI POUNDARIKAPURAM SWAMI ASHRAMAM”

– Part 20: “Iyam Sitaa mama sutaa” (continued)

(Anbil Ramaswamy)

--------------------------

We have so far presented in the form of catechism, 62 questions raised and

answered by H.H. In this Issue, we present -

--------------------------

Question 63:

Sri Sita was already known as the daughter of King Janaka. This being so,why

did King Janaka , who is known to be a “Jnaanee” (i.e) one who has got rid

of I-ness (ahamkaara) and Mine-ness (mamakaara) have to use the words “My

daughter” (mama Sutaa), referring to Sita, while asking Rama to accept her

hand in marriage?

 

Sri Gopaala Desika Mahaa Desika Mahaa MunigaL hailed reverentially as verily

VasishTa by all other Prakritam YathisrEshTas today, gives us in a flashback

of what must have flashed across the mind of the King.
