Dear AasthikAs :

 

Swamy Desikan's magnum opus among MaNipravALa

Granthams is undoubtedly Srimath Rahasya Thraya Saaram .

It is required to undertake KaalakshEpam of this grantham

as Grantha Chatushtayam for all Vadakalai SampradhAyins .

 

Sriman Svacchandham S.AarAvamudAcchAr Swamy

has released a 140 page book in easy to read Tamil on

the Quintessence of the Essence of Srimath Rahasya Thraya

Saaram for the benefit of many of us , who may not have

either the time for traditional KaalakshEpam under

the sacred fee

t of a SadAchAryan or would find it difficult to

comprehend the Original MaNipravALam work of Swamy Desikan.

 

Svacchandham Swamy is the retired Professor of Sanskrit at

the A.V.C College at MaayUram and is a retired Research

Scholar of the famous AdayAr Oriental Research Library .

Swamy hails from a traditional Sri VaishNavite Family known

for its piety and Scholarship in SampradhAyic Sri Sookthis .

 

Svacchandham Swamy has presented us with an eminently readable

Monograph , which summarizes the essence of essence of the Thirty two

individual chapters of Sriamath Rahasya Thrayam . He has eschewed

the Sanskrit and Tamil verses of the Original Sri Sookthi and focuses on

" the salient features only for the appreciation of ordinary aspirants " .

 

No important point is missed from the individual chapters of

Srimath Rahasya Thraya Saaram of Swamy Desikan . This

monograph is ideal for some one who is unfamiliar with Sri VaishNava

doctrines and the purport of the three rahasyams ( Moola Mantram,

Dhvayam and Charama SlOkam) leading upto the anuhstAnam

of SaraNAgathy as the MokshOpAyam. The simplicity of style and

the provision of clear defenitions of the key words in an easily

assimilable form are the strengths of this Monograph .

 

adiyEn recommends this book highly for all .

It is modestly priced at $2.99 and 60 Rs. in India.
