Thanks for uploading this rare photo of mahaperiyvaal and with Veena, HH looks

like pratyakshya shodshi. Many of us who had his blessings are fortunate to live

during his period.

Dear ganapati,

 

Namaste. This is the rare photograph of mahaperiyavar where Swamigal

is playing Manikya Vina in the Kamakshi Temple in front of Devi

Kamakshi.

 

Indeed people are blessed who had the darshan of this form of

Kamakshi in the form of Periyavar. Infact, South India witnessed 3

stalwarts in 20th century and blessed are the souls who saw them.

They are Mahaperiyavar, Ramana Maharishi and Seshadri Swamigal of

Tiruvannamalai.

 

I donot know how Periyavar got this vina but i heard from some of the

disciples that Swamigal was quite close to the descendants of Shri

Muthuswami Dikshitar, one of the great musicians apart from Shri

Tyagabrahmendra Saraswathi (Tyagaraja), Shri Shyama Shastry.

 

And i donot know whether the Vina played by Shri Dikshitar and the

Swamigal are same or not.

 

If anybody has any information regarding the descendants of Shri

Dikshitar and his Vina that was gifted by Devi Saraswathi, i would

like to have a glance at it.

 

With regards,

Sriram

RA. Ganapathy of deivathhin Kural fame, during an interview with Sathya Sai Baba

has confirmed, baba as saying that Maha Swamy - as an avthar for Karma yoga,

Aurrobindo as an Avthar for path of yoga and Bhagwaan Ramana for Gyana yoga.

 

The greatness of our eternal Dharma can be attributed singly due to such

avathars taking human birth, frequently , atleast once in a decade and they

demonstrate the truth of our Vedic dharma and its various path. The problem is

when one is dependent on a single prophet who lived long back and when his

teachings get totally misinterpretted on passage of time..

Namaste Sriram,

 

This is a beautiful photograph indeed. Sri Kamakshi plays this

Manikya Veena every year on Vijayadasami.

 

Coming to your doubt if this could be the veena played by Sri

Muthuswami Dikshitar, no, it isn't. The Veena played by Sri

Dikshitar has the Yalimukha turned upwards, as opposed to the usual

downwards facing ones. Moreover it has " Rama " etched on it in

Devanagari. Sri Ganga Matha blessed Sri Dikshitar with this rare

Veena when he was in Varanasi.

 

The whereabouts of this divine Veena is presently unknown. The last

it was known to be with a descendent of Dikshitar, who incidently

was also known as Muthuswami Dikshitar. He lived in Coimbatore and

also treasured Vallabha Ganapathi, Rajarajeshwari, Meru prastaram

and Subramanya murthis worshipped by the avathara purusha.

 

A friend once forwarded me a picture of this veena. I will have to

check my mails. If found, I'll be happy to share it here.

 

Regards,

Sudarshan
