Sri:
Dear BhakthAs : SrimAn
VaanamAmalai Padmanabhan Swamy
has summarized brilliantly some of
the remarkable contributions
of Swamy KurEsar to Sri VaishNava
Darsanam and His
extraordinary AchArya Bhakthi on this thirunakshathram day of Sri KUratthAzhwAn .
Here are Sriman PadmanAbhan's
ten points about the
Vaibhavam

1.Throwing away
the last remnants of his wealth on the way to kAnchipuram (madiyilE
gaNam irundhAl thAnE, vazhiyilE
bayam?)

RaamAnuja in obtaining RahasyArTams from sri thiru-kOTTiyUr
nambi.
3.Assisting Sri
RaamAnuja in Sri BhAshyam write up.
4.Refusing to write
the great works of Udayavar where he did not consent.
5.The man behind the
veLLai sAtthu paDi.
6.Proclaiming that
the shivA is not even the second supreme.
7.Losing his
eyes for the sake of srIvaishNavism.
8.Seeking salvation
even for nAlUrAn.
9.Declaring that he
preferred sri RaamAnuja -his AchArya- to sri
Nam-PerumAL.
10.Travelling
to Parama-Padham prior to his AchAryan to welcome
His beloved
AchAryan there.
The Two Kaimkaryams
for March-May 2005
***************************************
On this most auspicious day ,
adiyen is taking the Sankalpam to write
about the Pancha Sthavams of Swamy
KurEsar in the context of raising
needed funds to complete two
Kaimkaryams in 2005:
1) Upgrading of the
earlier CD ROM on AchArya RaamAnujA created
by Professor
M.A.Alwar of Mysore/Melkote so that it can be played on
all Microsoft
Operating Systems . This CD ROM is in English and is
a brilliant ,
Multimedia disc of interst to Sri VaishNavAs at every
level
and is a reference
work . AchArya RaamAnujA's dhivya Charitham ,
His Sri Sookthis ,
Bhagavath AarAdhanam and amny more topics are covered
in this
extraordinary and well crafted CD ROM . This is more a
software
Fix .
2) Few Months Back ,
another Major effort was initiated by Professor
M. A. Alwar to create
2 CD ROMs on the Vaibhavam of 12 AzhwArs ,
their Sri Sookthis
(audio recording of their AruLiccheyalkaLs) .
This is CD ROM like
the AchArya RaamAnujA CD ROM is also interactive
Mulimedia
and the language of
presentation is English . The First CD
Rom (AzhwAr: Volume I
has been released and covered the Lives and
AruLiccheyalkaLs of
the 3 Mudhal AzhwArs , PeriyAzhwAr , Andal ,
ThiruppANar and
Thondardippodi .A total of SEVEN AzhwArs were
covered in Volume I
with rcitations of all their Paasurams by
the AdhyApAka Ghoshti
of MelkOte DEvasthAnam .
Volume II is under
preparation now and will cover the Vaibhavam and
Dhivya Prabahndhams
of Swamy NammAzhwAr , Madhura Kavi , KulasEkharar ,
Thirumazhisai and
ThirumangaiAzhwAr. It is a challenge to manage
this vast content .
With the dhivya Dampathy's anugraham , both
SrimAn AlwAr and
adiyEn will manage it .
These two CD ROMs
along with that of AchArya RaamAnuja will provide
hours of information
and enjoyment for Sri VaishNavite Families .
Of this ,
we are sure . For us to complete this Kaimkaryam
,
we need Your support.
We have been blessed to recieve $500 of
the needed $2,000 to
complete this project by May 2005 and
send you these two CD
ROMs.
If 30 Sponsors can
come forward with $50 each , our fund raising
for this important
project would come to the finish line . Please
join in and let me
know , whether adiyEn can receive your Tax
deductible support
.
Thanks in advance
