>Sri Anbil Ramaswami:  adiyen forwards this for your

>---------------------
>Dear bhaktas:  Thanks in advance for your attention.
>Although asmad acharyan needs no introduction among
>todays vedantins, samskrit scholars and especially
>in ramanuja sampradAyam - yet adiyEn has attempted
>to write about SriRangapriya swAmi in the light of
>his upcoming thirunakshatram.
>
>This message was originally sent to the rangapriya
>discussion list.  Because very few days remain between
>now and the actual thirunakshatram [to be held Feb 07
>in Jayanagar Srimad Andavan Asramam in Bangalore],
>those who would like to offer any contributions towards
>the thirunakshatram may kindly EMAIL their pledges to
>Smt Nagu Satyan at the address given below, and send
>your cheque by US Mail at the earliest convenience.
>
>As we all may be aware, SriRangapriya swAmi is closely
>linked with most of the AchArya paramparais in SrI
>sampradAyam today, and his great tolerance endears
>him to sishyas of all denominations, even outside of
>SrIvaishNavam.  It will be our parama bhAgyam to try
>and help (yathA SakteH) with this kainkaryam towards
>a great yathISwara of ramanuja siddhAntam.

>Saturday, 07 February 2004 is thai makham,
>thirunakshatram of our SrI rangapriya mahA
>deSikan swami. This mahAcharyar, having the
>anugraham of 5 different preceptors from his

>mahAdeSikan, SrInivAsa varadaguru, SrImad
>abhinava ranganAtha parakAlaswAmi, SrIranga

>Little wonder then, that our SrIrangapriya
>swami has such great vidwat, pravachana shakti,
>kAruNyam and even immense soulabhyam. Today,
>asmadAcharyan is involved in many noble kainkaryams
>to SrIvaishnava kovils (particularly the one in
>satyakalam), to poor students and underprivileged
>people, to the cause of vedic studies, and towards
>the support of the ancient SrI parakAlamaTham.
>
>adiyEn had the opportunity to pay obeisance to
>Sri Rangapriya swAmi on 3 occasions during dhanur
>mAsam recently while I was in Bangalore; each time
>we were blessed with enlightening upanyAsams that
>resulted from swAmi's meditation, and his great
>concern for the well being of devotees. In
>particular I was amazed how rangapriya swAmi read
>into my state of mind, and advised me to return
>to my country soon.
>
>Sri rangapriya swAmi's thiruvuLLam is that his
>shishyas wherever they might be, practice the
>agnyA kainkaryams ordained in our SrI sampradAyam
>regularly and to the best of their ability. By
>this alone, rangapriya swAmi states - sampradAyam
>can flourish, our mind will focus on bhagavAn and
>our soul will experience Anandamaya.
>
>Although there are no grand celebrations or
>festivities that occur at AStangayoga vignyana
>mandira on the day of swAmi's thirunakshatram,
>it will behoove us all shishyas and abhimanis
>alike - to send a modest contribution marking that
>occasion, something that will at least support the
>minimal costs of thadiyAradhanai etc. and from
>which any excess amounts are directed by SrI
>rangapriya swAmi towards his many kainkaryams.
>
>Rangapriya swAmi has always stated, that one-tenth
>of one's earnings must go towards the support of
>SrIvaishnavam. Let us take this AchArya thiruvuLLam
>to heart at least on this occasion, and enact the
>same to whatever extent possible...
>
>Because only few days remain between now and the
>thirunakshatram, kindly mail your cheques at the
>very earliest (i.e. during the next one week) to
>smt Nagu Satyan at the following address:

>NAMA Inc.

>Littleton CO 80128-5522
