Sri:
Dear BhakthAs :
Few steps from Sri RanganAyaki's Sannidhi is
Sri AndaL's Sannidhi at the Pomona Temple .
As per sannidhi location tradition , ANDAL blesses us
from the North West section of the temple .
Soodikkoduttha NaacchiyAr & Her dhivya Prabhandhams
************************************************************
In fourty five days , Marghazhi month will dawn on us
and the Dhanur Maasa Aaaradhanam will commence at
the temple .ThiruppAvai ghOsham will resonate all around .
ANDAL will conduct Marghazhi nOnbhu with Her fellow gOpis.
Her Thirumozhi will be heard from the dhivya prabhandha ghOshti
of the temple . In the evenings , GodhA Sthuthi of Swamy Desikan
will echo around . All in all ANDAL , the beloved daughter of PeriyAzhwAr
and the dear consort of Lord RanganAtha becomes the focus of
worship during the Marghazhi month. We celebrate as well Her avathAra
dinam of Aadi Pooram with pomp and circumstance every year .
GodhA Sthuthi
****************
We recite and reflect on the Vaibhavam of Godha PirAtti
through the recitatin of the slOkams of Godha Sthuthi
bequeathed to us as Kula dhanam by Swamy Desikan .
Here is the URL for the extensive introduction to GodhA
Sthuthi and the deeper meanings of the individual slOkams :

Please recite atleast the first slOkam of Godha sthuthi ,
where Swamy Desikan shows us the way to perform
SaraNAgathy to Her :
SrivishNuchittha kula nandhana kalpavalleem
SrirangarAja harichandana yOga dhrusyAm
SaakshAth KashamAm karuNayA KamalAmivAnyAm
GodhAm ananya saraNa: SaraNam prapathyE
The other slOkams to recite are the 24th to 26th ,
where Her successful pleading on behalf of
the erring Jeevans to Her Lord and Her power to
remove the SamsAric afflictions of the suffering
Jeevans . The DhyAna slOkam should be used
whenever possible to invoke Her presence :
SathamakhamaNi neelaa chArukalhAra HasthA
sthanabharanamithAngi SaandhravAthsalya sindhu:
aLakavinihithAbhi: sragbhirAkruTanATA
vilasathu hridhi GodhA VishNuchitthAthmajA na :
ThiruppAvai or GodhOpanishad
**********************************
Swamy ParAsara Bhattar's Taniyan for ThiruppAvai
( NeeLAtunga Sthanagiri- - - - - ) should also be recited
during the MangaLAsAsanam of ANDAL at Her Sannidhi
to remind us about the special role that She plays in
awakening Her Lord about His sworn duties to come to our
rescue .
The detailed commentaries on ThiruppAvai Paasurams and
its three Taniyans as well as the recorded version of the individual
Paasurams sung by a leadign artist are available at :

NaacchiyAr Thirumozhi Paasurams(143)
******************************************
While at ANDAL's Sannidhi, we should reflect on
Her divine anubhavams in search of Her Lord and
dreaming about wedding Him ( VaaraNamAyiram)
and finally finding Him at BrundhAvanam grazing
calves and cows . The detailed write ups are by
