SrI:

Dear VedAbhimAnis:

I would like to take the opportunity to brief you further 
on the content of the souvenir that I referred to in my 
ealier note. I ahve recieved additional information from
Chennai that I wish to share with you.

If all of the aasthikAs here can cover the cost of 
releasing the souvenir that would be a magnificnet
achievement in the cause of capturing most valuable
information on Veda-VedAntham and some of the Sookthams
that  we recite quite often.

The opportunity to help in realizing this souvenir 
is a great  one and I appeal to you to help capture 
this treasure house of information described below :   


" A Souvenir with excellent content value will be released in
 commemoration of Swami's Satabhishekam. As per the wishes of
 Swami, the Souvenir will have many articles written by around
 twenty five eminent scholars on selected Upanishads viz. Isa,
 Kena, Kata, Prasna, Mundaka, Mandukya, Taittiriya, Mahanarayana,
 Aitareya, Svetasvatara, Mantrika, Maha, Ashtakshara Narayana
 and Dwaya, and also on Purusha Suktam, Uttara Narayanam, Sri
 Suktam and few other Veda mantras, apart from a comprehensive
 introduction to Veda-Vedanta.

 It has to be noted that, this is for the first time such a
 collective effort has been made to make the esoteric teachings of
 the holy Upanishads with sufficient explanations be available in
 tamil for the understanding of even a layman in Vedanta. These
 valuable articles are not word-by-word translations but will bring
 out very well the salient teachings without leaving any issue
 addressed in each of the Upanishads. The articles will also be
 enriched with profound thoughts and arguments for the right
 understanding of important passages in Upanishads, as explained
 in Classical texts of Vedanta like Sri Bhashya and its commentaries
 etc, for the serious students of Upanishads. This Souvenir will
 certainly be a very valuable companion for anyone interested in
 Vedanta ".
