Appeal: SriRangapriya swami thirunakshatram

[Guest guest]

Dear bhaktas: Thanks in advance for your attention.

Although asmad acharyan needs no introduction among

todays vedantins, samskrit scholars and especially

in ramanuja sampradAyam - yet adiyEn has attempted

to write about SriRangapriya swAmi in the light of

his upcoming thirunakshatram.

 

This message was originally sent to the rangapriya

discussion list. Because very few days remain between

now and the actual thirunakshatram [to be held Feb 07

in Jayanagar Srimad Andavan Asramam in Bangalore],

those who would like to offer any contributions towards

the thirunakshatram may kindly EMAIL their pledges to

Smt Nagu Satyan at the address given below, and send

your cheque by US Mail at the earliest convenience.

 

As we all may be aware, SriRangapriya swAmi is closely

linked with most of the AchArya paramparais in SrI

sampradAyam today, and his great tolerance endears

him to sishyas of all denominations, even outside of

SrIvaishNavam. It will be our parama bhAgyam to try

and help (yathA SakteH) with this kainkaryam towards

a great yathISwara of ramanuja siddhAntam.

Dear devotees:

 

Saturday, 07 February 2004 is thai makham,

thirunakshatram of our SrI rangapriya mahA

deSikan swami. This mahAcharyar, having the

anugraham of 5 different preceptors from his

poorvaSrama - poundareekapuram SrI SrInivasa

mahAdeSikan, SrInivAsa varadaguru, SrImad

abhinava ranganAtha parakAlaswAmi, SrIranga

mahAguru, and SrImad abhinava rAmAnuja

parakAlaswAmi.... also shares his janma

nakshatram with thirumazhisai pirAn - who was

the amSam of SrIsudarSaNa and progeny of

bhArgava rishi himself.

Little wonder then, that our SrIrangapriya

swami has such great vidwat, pravachana shakti,

kAruNyam and even immense soulabhyam. Today,

asmadAcharyan is involved in many noble kainkaryams

to SrIvaishnava kovils (particularly the one in

satyakalam), to poor students and underprivileged

people, to the cause of vedic studies, and towards

the support of the ancient SrI parakAlamaTham.

 

adiyEn had the opportunity to pay obeisance to

Sri Rangapriya swAmi on 3 occasions during dhanur

mAsam recently while I was in Bangalore; each time

we were blessed with enlightening upanyAsams that

resulted from swAmi's meditation, and his great

concern for the well being of devotees. In

particular I was amazed how rangapriya swAmi read

into my state of mind, and advised me to return

to my country soon.

 

Sri rangapriya swAmi's thiruvuLLam is that his

shishyas wherever they might be, practice the

agnyA kainkaryams ordained in our SrI sampradAyam

regularly and to the best of their ability. By

this alone, rangapriya swAmi states - sampradAyam

can flourish, our mind will focus on bhagavAn and

our soul will experience Anandamaya.

 

Although there are no grand celebrations or

festivities that occur at AStangayoga vignyana

mandira on the day of swAmi's thirunakshatram,

it will behoove us all shishyas and abhimanis

alike - to send a modest contribution marking that

occasion, something that will at least support the

minimal costs of thadiyAradhanai etc. and from

which any excess amounts are directed by SrI

rangapriya swAmi towards his many kainkaryams.

 

Rangapriya swAmi has always stated, that one-tenth

of one's earnings must go towards the support of

SrIvaishnavam. Let us take this AchArya thiruvuLLam

to heart at least on this occasion, and enact the

same to whatever extent possible...

 

Because only few days remain between now and the

thirunakshatram, kindly mail your cheques at the

very earliest (i.e. during the next one week) to

smt Nagu Satyan at the following address:
