SrI:

Dear VedAbhimAnis:

70 days from today , Srimath Azhagiya Singar's 
SathAbhishEkam will be celebrated at Srirangam
(November 30 , 2006).

This uthsavam will be preceded by Veda PaarAyaNam 
by 500 invited Vedic Authorities covering the three Vedams ,
its SaakhAs and in some patterns and combinations 
to protect error free methods of Recitation . 
These 8 methods ( Prakruthi & Vikruthi) 
are known as :

(1) Vaakya Paatam or Samhithaa Paatam
     ( Recitation of the Veda Mantrams in 
       a straight sentence . This would lead to 
       some conjoinment among the words during
       the Chanting . This is Vaakya or Samhithaa Paatam . 

       When the recitation is done word by word without
       conjoining , then the method is called Padha Paatam 
       and it follows Samhithaa Paatam . The breaking of 
       the sentences into words gives the reciter a thorough
       knowledge of each word in a sentence.             

(2) Krama Paatam : Here the first word of the sentence is 
     linked to the second word  and next the second word is 
     linked to the third word etc until the sentence ( mantra) 
     is completed . The reciter understands not only    
     the individual words but also the method of combining 
     words during the recitation and changes in Swaraas 
     in such a combination .  The order is 1-2 , 2-3, 3-4 etc. 

(3) Jataa : Here , the order is 1-2-2-1-1-2 , 
      2-3-3-2-2-3 ; 3-4-4-3-3-4 etc. In Jataa or " twisted 
      braids" , two words are repeated forward & Backward.

(4) Sikhaa : here the three words are linked forwards
     and backwards. 

(5) Rekhaa ( Line) : The next four patterns of recitation (5-8)
     involve more compex sequences and needs a Mastery of 
     high order in handling the Veda MantrAs .

(6) dhwajam ( Flag)

(7) DaNdaa (Stick)

(8) RaTam ( Chariot) 

(9) Ghanam : This is a most beautiful & Complex form of
recitation .The order is: 1-2-2-1-1-2-3-321-1-2-3 ,
2-3-3-2-2-3-4-4-3-2-23-4 , 3-4-4-3-3-4-5-5-4-3-3-4-5 .
It takes 8 years after SamhithA ahyayanam to become
a GhanapAti .  

Chanted in this style , it will take 450 hours to recite 
Rg Vedam . 

One of the leaders among Rg Veda GhanapAdis ,
Sri Rangarajan Swamy of KumbakONam will be
joining the Rg Vedam Ghanam reciting group 
at the sathAbhishEkam celebrations for Prakrutham
Srimath Azhagiya Singar . There will be other SamhithA
Paatam Rg Vedic reciters there as well .  

The Yajur Vedam Ghanam reciting group will be
headed by SrikAryam SaThakOpAcchAr Swamy of 
Sri Matam . There will also be Yajur Veda Samhitha ,
Jataa and Maala reciters .

The two of the three Saakhais ( Kouthuma and Jaimini
SaakhAs) will be recited at the SathAbhishEka Uthsavam .
adiyEn is still looking for a Saama VedAdhyAyee , who can recite RaaNAyini 
SaakhA . Sri Matam is also looking for these rare Vedic scholars . If you 
happen to
have any information on some one , who can recite RaaNAyini Saakha , Please let 
adiyEn know so that Sri Matam can invite him. TTD has the recordings of 
RaaNAyini
SaakhA but can not throw light on the identity of such an expert .

There will be 500 Vedic Pundits , who will be participating
at the four days of VedAdhyayanam at Srirangam during 
Nov 26-29 , 2006. It will be a KallOla KolAhalam . Thrayyantha
Desikan , Sri Malolan and Sri RanganAtha will be immersed in
such a Veda ghOsham .

Please come and join to listen to the Veda ParAyaNam ,
Vidhvath Sathas ( Assembly of Experts) . These Experts 
are class mates of Srimath Azhagiya Singar , when they 
studied Sri BhAshyam under HH InjimEttu Azhagiya Singar .
They will give upanyAsams on Sri BhAshyam instead of
the VaakyArTams , which takes place in a traditional Vidvath
Sathas .
