Dear Bhagavata uttamas,
Adiyen's aneka dhedam samarpiththa vigyapanam.
Thiruvelliankudi - Adiyen need not describe to bhagavatha shreeshtas that
its one of the 108 divya desam and sung by the great Alwar - Thriumangai Alwar
in 10 paasurams. Its one of the pancha rama kshetrams, ( the others
being ThriuvA yoddhi, Thiruvellore, ThiruppuLapoothangudi and
Thirupputkuzhi). Emperuman had given dharshan here to Ashura guru sukacharya
and his desciple Mayan, who has built the temple. Sukracharya has got his eyes
restored here after the thiruvikrama avataram and here is where perumal gave
the first of the Rama dharshanam ( after this only he took birth as parasu
rama, sri rama, bala rama ).so much can be attributed to this temple of
Sheerabdhi naathan that its comparison can only be made to Sri Rangam and
nothing less than that.
Adiyen's thiru patanar Sri U.Ve. Thiruvelliankudi Kudik Kandhadai
Sadagopachariar swamigal of Kumbakonam is taking care of the yearly Thiru
adhyayana utsavams in Thiruvelliankudi Kolavilli Ramar kovil. The adhyayana utsavams where
started here by Sri Parakalan ( Thirumangai Alwar) himself, propounded by
natha munigal, then by Sri Alawandar and then by Srimadh Bhagavath Ramanujar
and then by Sri Swamy Desikan. (all have done mangalasasanams to Kolavilli
ramar).
This wonderful tradition got stopped years ago and initiated from last year
by Kolavilli raman's thiruvullam, by the blessings of all Acharya
Swamigal and by Adiyen's thiruppatanar's devoted and selfless work.
Adiyen's family is blessed by Kolavilli ramar to take part in his
vaibhavam.
Adiyen very humbly conveys regards to all bhagavata uttamas
thiruvadigal and requests devareergal to take part in the vaibhavam.
The
trust that runs the thiru adhyayana utsavams is chaired by the Sri U.Ve.
thiruvelliankudi kudi kandhadai sadagopachariar swamigal.
If devareergal
wishes to contribute or wants any information on utsavams, kindly call
thiruppatanar in the following number and address.
(Thatha can be contacted
for arranging any dharshan in kolavilli ramar kovil.- Ramamoorthy battachar
swamy knows him well).

Adiyen begs pardon to let know of this information a bit late as the
Adhyayana utsavams had already begun along with Sri Rangam temple.
Adiyen uttaravu vangikkaren.
