Sri :
 
Dear BhakthAs :
 
(1) You might recall that few years back we ( Professor M.A. Alwar of
Melkote and myself ) prepared and distributed an informative CD on
the Life and the Nine divine Sri Sookthis of AchArya RaamAnujA .
The nine divine compositions (Sri Sookthis) of our most
revered AchAryan (  Sri Bhaashyam , VedAntha Saaram , VedAntha dheepam ,
VedArtha Sangraham , Geethaa BhAshyam , Gadhya Thrayam and
Nithyam ) were covered in that CD ROM , which was well recieved .  
 
That year was 1999 and Microsoft Operating System 98 was still in vogue.
Two years later , we found that Microsoft had released new Operating
Systems that made our CD incompatible .  All that unique effort in
creating the marvellous CD ROM came to nought . Now , We have to reformat
all the data relating to AchArya RaamAnujA CD so that it can be played
across all OS platforms . We need your active particpation & Support to
realize this objective .
 
(2) Dr. M.A. Alwar & myself prepared next , one of the most
information-packed introduction to the Lives and Sri Sookthis
(AruLiccheyalkaLs) of the 12 Sri VaishNavite AzhwArs . The date was
around 2003 . The medium is English and the focus was at a a level
for youngsters as well as all family members to learn about the glories
of our blessed AzhwArs .
 
The first of these planned two volumes covered the life history ,
the dhivya dEsams that they performed MangaLAsAsanam , 
their  Prabhandhams and recitation of those Prabhandhams by
the Melkote AdhyApAka GhOshti .The Life History and the divine
works of 7 AzhwArs ( Mudhal AzhwArs, PeriyAzhwAr , ANDAL ,
Thondaradippodi and ThiruppANar ) were covered in that First
Volume , which was also well recieved because of the significant
still and video images and acoustic files covering the recitation of
the Prabhandhams of all those 7 AzhwArs . This Volume is still
available for those , who did not acquire it sofar .Please contact me .
 
 
Now we are planning to complete the Second Volume of
the Life and AruLiccheyalkaLs of the remaining  5 AzhwArs
( Kulasekharar , Thirumazhisai , Swamy  NammAzhwAr ,
Madhura Kavi and Thirumangai Mannan ) . Together , these
5 AzhwArs alone have contributed 9 Prabhandhams with more than
2,500 Paasurams . In view of this extensive/ precious content , the second
volume will be a challenge to create . With Bhagavath anugraham
and your support , we are determined to complete this Kaimkaryam
and release it along with the reformatted AchArya RaamAnujA
CD ROM in English .
 
Estimated Cost for completion of the two Projects Is $ 2,000.
 
Sole Support by a single philanthrophically minded
Sri VaishNavar or (2)support by 4 BhakthAs at $500
level each or (3) assistance by 10 BhakthAs at the $200
level or (4) by 20 Sri VaishNavAs at the $100 level
will help us reach the funding target to launch quickly
and successfully conclude this project of great
importance to Sri VaishNavite Families .
 
Please contact adiyEn to raise these tax deductible funds
to initiate this twin Kaimkaryams as the  First of
the important Kaimkaryams for the year 2005 .
 
Thank you for your help ,
V.Sadagopan
