sRi: Dear SriVaishnavas ADiyen would like to add few to the points mentioned by Sri.PB Sampath Kumar, what he ahs informed is correct and you can see lot of insurge to the Swamy Utsavam in all 10 days and Adiyen blessed to be there on 4 days and its a huge turn out by Bhagavadas in all numbers , and I did see any sannidhis in dilapidated condition , the Prasadam and all are great (probably thats where my eye and mind will be )and also you can see lot SriVaishnava organisations /madams doing thatheeradhanai . Also while seeing the increase in influx towards Swamy, most of the people are approaching for Kamyam like Prarthana (due to large scale of publishing in Kumudam Jothidam), am not sure whether its correct to approach the Acharya for the Kamyam , and I am not sure who is so Prapanna by mind who does not thing about Kamyam . While seeing the big group of Chetana, it flashes across my mind that "Chetana lAbam eeswranukku" , this Perumal is so Bhagyavan to see the Ramanuja Srivaishnavas daily.

Unquote Dear Swamin, I really don't understand on what basis you say that Sriperumbudur remains as a deserted dirty dump and in a state of neglect. I have also been to Sriperumbudur for Swami utsavam this year which was celebrated in a very grand manner as before. Right from my childhood days I have never failed to visit Swami Utsavam. If i could not be there for 10 days definitely I will be there for atleast 3 days. I can also able to visualize the developments that had taken place during the last five years. To name a few I will write certain kainkaryams that had taken place. 1. The electrical work for the entire temple was done with fixtures and fittings. So Swami sannidhi is no more dark we had seen before 5 years. 2. We cannot imagine the crowd visiting Swami Sannidhi for the Montly Thirunakshatram. Monthly thirunakshatram is almost become a mini Chititrai Utsavam. Earlier Thirumanjanam was performed in mandapam near Dwajastampam whereas it has been shifted to Gayatri mandapam where more people can be accomodated and can have better darshan. 3. Thiruther Renovation work has started almost a decade before, but somehow or other it was not happening for quite long time. Nearly 30% of the work is completed and hopefully the whole work will be completed in another year with the Grace of Swami Emperumanar. 4. Swami sannidhi has received an Elephant, camel, cow and horse as donation from a sponsor with corpus fund for maintenance. It is feast for eyes to see Elephant, Camel etc marching in front of the Perumal and Swamis procession. I humbly request you to talk only about the facts and do not provide any false information about Swami sannidhi. Quote ===== The very birthplace of >The Jiyar - H.H.
