Sri:

Dear BhakthAs :

Let us now move our feasting of the eyes from Sri Hayagrivan 
to Lord SrinivAsan , who is standing with His Ubhaya NaacchiyArs
in the third sannidhi that we have travelled to . Let us enjoy 
the darsana soubhAgyam of Sri SrinivAsan at this sannidhi now.

Dayaa Moorthy : Lord SrinivAsan
*******************************************
Inspite of the natural temptations to salute the countless auspicious 
GuNams of Saptha Gireesan , Swamy Deiskan focussed on one
GuNma ( Viz) the DaayA GuNam of the Lord of Thirumalaa .
Swamy Desikan composed one of most powerful SthOthrams
consisting of 100 SlOkams on the Lord of Venkatam Hills revealing
the Lord's multifaceted aspects of Dayaa ( Compassion) for us ,
the Bhaddha Jeevans . 

PoundarIkapuram Andavan Asramam's blessings 
****************************************************************
Srimath Poundarikapuram Andavan Aasramam is planning to bring
out an important monograph in the near future that will contain 
the marvellous commentaries of many Scholars and AchAryAs on 
Swamy Desikan's Dayaa Sathakam . That monograph housing
the many commentaries of VaishNavite Scholars is expected 
to exceed 800 pages .  All of us will be blessed to enjoy the brilliant
insights provided by the above scholars and that monograph will 
be assembled by Oppiliappan Koil U.Ve. Vidwaan , Dr. V.N .VedAntha
Desikan , the editor of this series on Swamy Desika SthOthrams .
Sofar , Dr.VedAntha Desikan following the niyamanam of His
AchAryan , Srimath PoundarIkapuram Andavan has released 
similar monographs on (1) Sri GopAla Vimsathy (2) Bhagavath
DhyAna sOpAnam (3) Abheethi Sthavam and (4) DasaavathAra
SthOthram . 

The DasAvathAra SthOthram was composed by Swamy Desikan 
regarding the Archaa Murthys in the DasaavathAra PerumAL Sannidhi 
constructed by Thirumangai AzhwAr at Srirangam . Swamy  Desikan 
used to have His morning anushtAnams at a site on the banks of Cauveri
close to DasAvathAra Sannidhi and stopped always at this Sannidhi 
before going to have the morning SEvai of the dhivya dampathis at the Main
temple . Thus arose the DasAvathAra SthOthram according to our 
AchAryAs . Sri GopAla Vimsathy was composed at Thiruvaheendhrapuram.
Bhagavath DhyAna sOpAanam emulating ThiruppANAzhwAr's
MangaLAsAsanam of Periya PerumAl came in to being at Srirangam 
Sannidhi of Lord RanganAthaa. Abheethi Sthavam was composed 
at KarnAtakaa (Sathyagalam) during Swamy's self-imposed exile from 
the turbulent Srirangam during the invasion of the temple town by
the invaders from the north . 

When the commentaries on Swamy Desikan's sthOthram would be 
completed some time in the year 2005 C.E , it will be a great occasion 
for celebrations and thanks giving to bring under one roof all these
rare and difficult to access commentaries on Swamy Desikan's 
Twenty Eight SthOthra Granthams . We are fortunate to benefit
from the vision of Srimath PoundarIkapuram Andavan and the dedicated
kaimkaryam of the great scholar from Oppiliappan Sannidhi ,
Dr.V.N.VedAntha Desikan to translate that powerful vision . 

Any aastikaa intersted in supporting this Kaimakryam to release 
the detailed commentaries on Swamy Desikan's SthOthra granthams 
are requested to contact me.
