The MahOpakAram of Srimath Azhagiya Singar

***********************************************

Inspite of the heavy demands of the NirvAham of Sri Matam with its many

branches and temples, with the AnushtAnams of a Raaja SanyAsi and

with finite time to be set aside for daily KaalakshEpams , with the wear and tear

of complex sanchArams form one end of the land to the other , Prakrutham

Srimath Azhagiya Singar travels with Abheethi ( no fear ) as MalOla dhivya PaadhukA

Sevakar . He appeals to His AarAdhana Moorthy to remove our fears (Bheethi)

and grant us abhayam through His reassuring Hastha Mudhrai .

 

Swamy Desikan's Abheethi Sthavam

************************************

Swamy Desikan composed a Sthavam named Sri Abheethi Sthavam at

Sathyagalam agrahAram on the banks of Cauvery river . In this sthavam

made up of 29 slOkams , Swamy Desikan prayed to Lord RanganAtha

to remove the Bheethi at Srirangam and for the Uthsava Moorthys to be united

with Moolavar to enjoy daily AarAdhanam . Bhagavan responded to Swamy

Desikan's appeal and a local king with the name of KoppaNAryan defeated

the occupiers and united the Uthsava Moorthy with Moolavar to resume

the nithyArAdhanams at the Lord's mighty temple at Srirangam .
