To all the Aastheekaas worldwide in general and to all the Andavan
sishyaas in particular adiyen makes this appeal.

For the convenience of the pilgrims thronging Thiruppullani to have a
Holy dip in the Aadhi Sethu and to have a dharshan of Sri Aadhi
Jagannaatha PerumaL and Sri Dharbasayana Raman,on the Niyamanam of His
Holiness Srimath Aandavan Sri Rangaramaanuja Mahaa Desikan Swami , a
convenient Ashramam is to be constructed at Thiruppullani , the Bhoomi
Puja for which was done on 27/6/06 and the construction begins on
6/7/06.

The cost of constructing the spacious Ashramam, to be constructed on
nearly 5200 sq.feet , is estimated around 25 lakhs of Indian Rupee. It
is needless to say that for every Astheeka- (for Srivaishnavas
specifically) to take bathe in this Holy Sethu atleast once in their
life is must as , according to poorvaachaaryaars, this Sethu is the
Holiest of all Holys due the Thiruvadi Sambantham of Lord Sri Rama due
to the fact of which it remains as sakala paapa dhosha nivaaraNi.That's
why it is said in our PuraaNams, feeding one at this Holy place (Oru
KavaLam) is equivalent to feeding one lakh at GayA, two lakhs at
VAraNasi,and seven lakhs atPrayaakai.

I appeal to everybody to take part in this kainkaryam. His Holiness will
be very happy if everybody helps according to their convenience. Of
course the cost is estimated as 25 lakhs which may go up due to
spiralling prices of materials.. But I request one thing. If the cost of
construction is viewed as Twenty Five Lakhs it will be very big and
keeping many of us away. But please consider that 25 lakhs is just made
up of 2500 thousands and if 2500 aastheekas donate Rs. 1000/- each it is
very easy. and 25 lakhs will become a small amount. I earnestly appeal
to everybody to liberally contribute to this kainkaryam and thus help
the pilgrims to this Divya Desam, ThiruppullANi.
