Dear Srimathy Anuradha :
 
Many Thanks for your Mail announcing
the plans for Mahaa SamprOkshaNam
at PerugavAzhundhAn SrI GrAmam .
 
Your announcement has a lot of personal
significance to me and I hope the Members do
not mind my nostalgic reflections
about PerugavAzhundhAn . The Members can
also get a feeling for my roots in the Cauvery
Delta known for its 40 dhivya dEsams ,
Veda Samrudhdi , dhivya Prabhandham
scholars and NaadhOpAsana .   
 
My maternal grandfather hails from this village
of PerugavAzhundhAn which had a rich assembly of
Vedic Scholars , who routinely took part in
BrahmOtsavams at Raaja MannArgudi , Oppiliappan Sannidhi ,
PuLLambhthangudi and other nearby dhivya dEsams
and abhimAna kshEtrams .
 
It was at the PuLLambhUthangudi BrahmOtsavam ,
my paternal and maternal grandfathers met and 
decided to become sambhandhis . My Mother
grew up in PerugavAzhundhAn and was married
to my Father from Poundarikapuram village known
again for great Vedic Scholars . My grandfather
on the paternal side was a respected  Bruhaspati
with expertise in  Yajus and Saama Vedhams .
My Mother was 12 at the time of her marriage
and gave birth to my elder sister and myself
at the ages of 16 and 18 respectively . She was
a great Jn~Ani and attained AchAryan Thiruvadi
at the age of 39 . All my involvement with sampradhAyam
and deep affection for AzhwAr aruLiccheyalkaL arise
from Her deep devotion to our illustrious ubhaya
VedAntham heritage .
 
After the arrival of the grandchildren , my maternal
grandfather moved to Oppilaippan Koil from PerugavAzhundhAn
to be near their grandchildren and I grew up in
the warmth of the secure affection of my maternal
grandparents .
 
Land in and around PerugavAzhundhAn was
brougtt by SrI matam during HH Srimad DeavanArviLAgam
Azhagiya Singar's time and my neighbor's daughter
from the Oppiliappan Koil SrI SourirAja Bhattar Family was married
to the archakar at PerugavAzhundhAn Koil. On this basis ,
I assume that the AarAdhanam at PerugavAzhundhAn
follows the VaikhAnasa Aagamam .
 
I am very pleased to know about the plans for MahA SamprokshaNam
at PerugavAzhundhAn , whose very name suggests Perugha
VaazhundhAn ( the people of the village lived with grand
material and spiritual achievements) . I never was blessed to
visit my ancestral village of PerugavAzhundhAn until now
inspite of my many travels around the world . This is a lapse
which I hope to correct during my next trip home .
 
As you can see, PerugavAzhundhAn obviously means a lot to me .
Please send us pictures of the village today
and the celebration of SamprOkshaNam there .
 
 
with Jaanaki KAntha SmaraNam and PraNAmams
to Srimad Azhagiya Singar's ThiruvadikaL ,
Daasan , Oppilaippan Koil VaradAchAri Sadagopan
