Dear members of the group,

 

Please go thro' the forwarded mail of Sri Sadagopan Swamy about the  
availability of the e-journal ?Purna-kumbha?, released by HH Rangapriya 
Swamigal, on the occasion of the centenary celebrations of Sri U.Ve, 
Parankushacharya, the revered father of Veda Varidhi, U.Ve. Dr. P.Ramanujan, 
the asthana vidvan of Ahobila Mutt. 

 

Dr. Ramanujan doesn?t need any introduction.  When sage Valmiki asked  Naradar, 
?kOnvasmin sAmprataM lokE guNavAn kashcha vIryavAn dharmajnashcha krtajnashcha 
satyavakyOdrDhavrata: ???, the answer then, was ? RAMA?. Same way, if anyone 
were to question as, ?is there anyone,  who is an authority in the field of 
Vedas, vedangas etc etc?  who is a master of divyaprabandhams, a  doyen in the 
field of  dharmashastras? a strict follower of Vaidika anushThanams ?  a kind 
guru who takes pleasure in teaching his disciples any time without bothering 
about his own convenience? an unparalleled scholar of Sanskrit,Tamil etc? and 
many more like this, THE ANSWER WOULD BE ?Sri. RAMANUJAN?.

 

There is a slokam in Kalidasa's Raghuvamsha mahakavyam, which talks about the 
greatness of King Dilipa, as the one who attained vrddhatava (old age) in his 
youth, thro' his limitless knowledge, being unperturbed by the worldly 
pleasures and always indulging in dharma, "anArkshTasya vishayai: vidyAnAm 
pAradrshvana: tasya dharmaratE: asIt ""vrddhatvam jarasA vinA"". The same 
applies to Dr Ramanujan also.

In a nutshell, it is not at all an exaggeration, if I say, like Swamy Vedanta 
Deshika, Dr Ramanujan is a doyen in all fields. He is blessing the people of 
Bangalore thro? his unparalleled kalakshepams, while also contributing 
extensively to our sampradayam in many ways including thro'CDAC, where he is 
heading a division. 

This souvenir ?Purna-kumbha? is a collection of beautiful articles by the 
greatest scholars of the day, including the current day Srikaryam swamins and 
asthana vidvans, vidvans like Dr NSA, Vidvan Ramanuja Tatacharya, Vidvan 
K.S.Varadacharya and many others.  Dr Ramanujan?s foreword speaks the contents 
of this. Those who wish to acquire a  copy of this may do so by paying an 
amount of US $ 5 online and get this as an email attachment. 

 

Many thanks to Sriman Sadagopan swamy and Sri Sriram for their help in getting 
this uploaded and making available online.

 

For more details, please read the forwarded mail of Sri Sadagopan swamy. 

 

Pranamams,

Ramanuja dasi,
