1. Editorial

Dear BhakthAs:


The first article is by Vaikunta Vaasi Sri U.Ve. Srirama
DesikAcchAr Swamy of ThiruviNNagar. Swamy Desikan created a
chillarai rahasyam named "Anjali Vaibhavam" to celebrate the
message enshrined in one slOkam of Swamy AlavandhAr's sthOthra
rathnam for which he had written a bhAshyam (Commnetary). He
dwells here on the power of the Anjali MudhrA or the gesture of
offering salutations to the Lord with folded hands (palms). Swamy
Desikan states that the Lord's heart "melts" like sugar in water
when He sees the anjali bhaddha hasthams of His bhakthAs. The
Lord's mudhrA in response is Abhaya MudhrA, which assures the
Bhakthan not to fear, since he will stand in the place of the
Rakshakan to remove any and all fears.

The second aticle in this issue is the third in the series on
Ubhaya Linga AdhikaraNam by Sriman M.S.Hari of Singapore. (We
appreciate the depth of coverage of this important topic
particular interest to all Srivaishnavas)


The final article is by Sri U.Ve.Vedantha Desikan Swamy is on the
important Sri Sookthi of Ashta SlOki of Sri Parasara Bhattar,
which (where he) summarizes brilliantly the inner meanings of the
three rahasyams in a short span of eight slOkams. 

We regret the delay in releasing this issue due to unavoidable
time pressures. Our plan continues to be to release minimum of 12
issues in one year. We will therefore plan on releasing atleast
two more issues during this year.

We are delighted to know that the membership has grown to ~375
bhakthas now and we look forward to serving you all with humility.
