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.
