Dear bhagavathas:

 

namo narayana!

 

Thursday (June 12) : Swami Nammazhvar and 7th and 10th Srimad Azhagiya Singar

Friday (June 13) : 35th Srimad Azhagiya Singar

 

The month of Vaikasi is special. We started the month off

with Sri Nrisimha Jayanthi. We are going to end the month

Vaikasi Visakam (June 12), the birth star of Swami Nammazhvar.

Tomorrow, Dolai Kannan will celebrate the Thiunakshatram

both morning and evening, with Thiruvaymzhi Satrumurai at

night at the conclusion of 10-day Thiruvaymozhi parayanam.

 

Further, Vaikasi celebrates Thirunakshatram of 5 Srimad

Azhagiya Singars, namely, 27th (May 22), 39th (May 29th),

7th & 10th (June 12), and 35th (June 13). The 7th and

10th Srimad Azhagiya Singars share Thirunakshathram with

our Prapanna Jana Kootasthar and also the thirunAmam of

Azhvar. Please remember to recite thaniyan of 7th and

10th Srimad Azhagiya Singars on Thursday, and that of

35th Srimad Azhagiya Singar on Friday.
