 SrI: 
Dear AasthikAs and Raama BhakthAs : 
The date for the SamprOkshaNam is Jan 31 and there 
will be  
Veda PaarAyaNams and Vaidhika KarmAs from Jan 
27-31. 
We are at 60% of the target level of $1,000 to help 
with number of  
the Vaidhika KarmAs . 
Please let me know if you wish to join in 
supporting the Once in 
TWELVE year SamprOkshaNam for Jaanaki SamEtha 
Sri  
Kodhanda Raaman , who is the hero of 
SaraNAgathy 
Saasthram ( Sriamth RaamAyaNam) . 
Abaya PradhAnam is the vow of the Lord with 
KodhaNdam in His hand . 
Sri Raaman is Sarva Loka SaraNyan .He is 
saluted by Brahma Devan as 
"Aksharam Brahma sathyam cha" ( Raamaa ! Thou art 
eternal and do not  
undergo any changes ) . He is Sarva VilakshaNa Para 
Brahmam ( One with 
a Vaibhavam that is quite different from and 
superior to all Gods) .He is  
the top most among SaraNAgatha Rakshakans and the 
SaraNAgathy performed 
by the DevAs ( Baala KaaNDam ) , LakshmaNan 
(AyOdhyA KaanDam) , KaakAsuran , 
Samudhra Rajan , VibhishaNan ( Yuddha KaaNDam) 
--- all these SaraNAgathys are  
SamarTa KaaruNeeka Vishaya SaraNAgathy ( the 
SaraNAgathy performed at 
the feet of an adhikAri with sakthi and 
KaruNai). His svabhAvam and PrabhAvam is 
all about protecting  those , who seek His protection . 
HanumAn , the Parama Bhakthan of Sri Ramachandran 
sums up the unique 
feautures of Lord Ramachandra this way 
: 
dhvi: Saram nAbhisandhatthE dhvi: sTApayathy 
nAsrithAn 
dhvir-dhadhAthy na chArTibhyO RaamO 
dvir-nAbhibhAshathE  
(Meaning ) : My Lord Raamn never sets His arrow 
twice.He does not  
engage twice in the establishment of those who 
sought His refuge.  
He does not give twice to those who sought His help 
.He does not speak  
twice about any subject .Since He completes every 
thing that needs to be 
taken care of , there is no need for retrying or 
repetition . 
One of the famous slOkam sumamrizes His heroism as 
Raghuveeran: 
" Lord Raamachandra laid siege on 
the eve of PourNami , 
got released from the Naaga Paasam , 
killed DhUmrAksahn ,  
Vajra dhamshtran , Akampanan, 
Prahasthan and broke the  
crown of RaavaNan , used 
BrahmAsthram to destroy KUmbhakarNan, 
AthikAyan , Kumbhan , MakarAkshan , 
Indhrajith  and in three 
days time killed RaavaNa 
and his army ". Such is the valour of  
the Kodhanda Raaman at VaduvUr . 
 
If You have not had the darsana 
soubhAgyam of this  
KOdhaNdarAman with His dharma Pathni 
, Jaanaki , 
please visit this abhimAna sthalam , 
which is 25 miles

I will wait to hear from you for

kaimkaryam. Please let me 
know.Thanks . 
NamO Sri RaamachandrAya 
,
