Dear Oppiliappan BhakthAs : I would like to share with you a composition in one
of the 72 MeLa Raaga KarthAs about BhUmi DEvi Sametha SrI Oppiliappan , whose
samprOksha Vaibahvam we enjoyed last Sunday .
Srimathy Padma Veeraraghavan is my elder sister and
is a Sangeetha VidvAmsini , whose Gurus are Sri Sangetha Kalanidhis ,
Ariyakkudi SrI Ramanuja Iyengar , PalakkAd Sri KVN , T.M.Thyagarajan and
Professor Sambha Moorthy .Sriman Arjun Ramkumar , Smt. Gayathri Venkataraghavan
are two of Her sishyAs. My sister has trained 500 plus Family ladies
to
in Sri Godha Stuti over the years and her wish
is to train one thousand and sing before ANDAL at Her avatAra Sthalam
Smt.Padma Veeraraghavan has composed more than 200
krithis on our Kula Dhaivam , Sri BhUmi Devi SamEta Sri Oppiliappan .
These include the 72 MeLa Raaga Krithis and ThillAna in
Siva Ranjani about Nava NarasimhAs, Various
VaraNams etc.
PuzhthivAkkam Sri Oppiliappan Sannidhi would be
an abhimAna sthalam close to where she lives
now with her son's family in West Mambalam
. If any of you Oppiliappan BhakthAs and Sangeetha RasikAs would be
interested to arrange the release of Her forthcoming book on these 72 MeLa
Raaga KarthAs with notation at the PuzhuthivAkkam Oppiliappan Temple ,
please let me know .
It will be anappropriate site to have a small
concert cum release of this monograph . You can reach my sister at 2-474-2108 at
Station Road, West Mambalam .
Another alternate site for this arangERRam could be
SrI Sathya NaarAyaNa Temple right there
at West Mamabalam .
I am building a special web site with the help of
Sri Anil of Brisbane , Australia to house my sister's krithis on Sri BhUmi
Devi SamEta Sri Oppiliappan .
Meanwhile You can browse the 108th ebook in the
Sundarasimham series entitled Sri Oppiliappan Vaibhavam that houses abundant Rg
Vedic tributes to Oppiliappan and AakAsa NagareeSa Prapatthi slOkams by
VaikunTha Vaasi Sri Srirama DesikAchAr Swamy , adiyEn's first AchAryan
.

Veeraraghavan Dear
Sumati, I have had
the good fortune of meeting her in person a few times and can say that She is an
very wonderful and inspiring person. Her musical compositions on Sri Oppliappan
are as sweet as honey and one has to listen to enjoy this great anubhavam. She
has the rare distinction of composing 72 Mela Kartha Kruthis and hopefully soon,
we will release the book on that. I am in the
process of revamping the Nadhopasana section of www.sadagopan.org
and it should be ready in week?s time for your to download few of her
compositions. But for now, I am attaching a favorite of
mine. Sankeertanam
