[Guest guest]

SrI:

 

Dear Devotees of SrIman NaarAyaNa :

 

I am enclosing an appeal from SrI K.K.Anand of

Chennai , which I fully endorse.

 

The greatness of the scholarship of SrI PerukkAranai

ChakravartyArya MahA Desikan and his service to

the SrI VaishNavite community is well known .

 

He is an Ubhaya VedAnthi par excellence .

His penetrating scholarship, His range ofcommand

over Saasthraic matters, His erudition as

the SrI BhAshya SimhAsanaapahty , His intense

familiarity with NaalAyira Dhivya prabhandham ,

His thorough familiarity with the works of

PoorvAchAryaas like Swamy Desikan makes Him

a living legend among the SrI VaishNavite scholars.

 

His SathAbhishEkam (80th birthday) will be

celebrated on March 4th at Chennai in a fititng

manner with a Vidhvath Sadas , Veda PaarAyaNam ,

UpanyAsams and most appropriately with the release

of a scholarly souvenir on Upanishads intrepreted

in the VisishtAdhvaithic manner. This souvenir will be in

YTamil and English. The articles written by great

VaishNavite scholars will be a rich source of

reference to all of us.Please help with the release

of the Souvenir and the honoring of the VidvAns

assembled for this occasion .

 

A modest amount of $20 (Rs.1,000 ) form as many

of you would eb of immense help in accomplishing

the above described goals for this celebration

to benefit us all .

80 birthdays and get qualified to celebrate SathAbhishEkam .
