Sri Hayavadhana ParabrahmaNE Namaha

On behalf of the Sundara Simham Team ,
it is my distinct pleasure to announce
the release of the next four e-books 
on the Sri Sookthis of Swamy Desikan .

We  have just uploaded all the four ebooks to sundarasimham.

The website address that has links to all four of them is:
http://www.sundarasimham.org/e-booksS2.htm

Individual pages for each are:

Adaikkalappatthu
http://www.sundarasimham.org/ebooks/ebook31.htm

This Sri Sookthi is about Swamy Desikan's SaraNAgathi to
Lord VaradarAjan of Atthigiri ( Kaanchipuram). This is a Tamil
Prabhandham .

Srimath Rahasya Thraya Saaram
http://www.sundarasimham.org/ebooks/ebook32.htm

The 214 Sahasra Naamams of Swamy Desika Sahasra Naamam
composed by Thirukkudanathai Desikan cover the important 
Sri Sookthi of Srimath Rahasya Thraya Saaram (SRTS). This is a Masterly 
coverage of the 32 chapters  of SRTS with just 214 NaamAs . 
This e-book will be helpful for those , who wish to get closer to
our ancient SiddhAnthams .

Paramatha Bhangam
http://www.sundarasimham.org/ebooks/ebook33.htm

This scholarly MaNipravALa Sri Sookthi of Swamy Desikan deals 
with the soundness of VisishtAdvaitha Darsanam over many other 
philosophies ranging from Advaitham to Buddhisam . The sharp intellect 
of Swamy Desikan points out the blemishes in Para Mathams and 
upholds the soundness of VisishtAdhvaitham with Vedic and other 
PramANams .  

Prabhanda Saaram
http://www.sundarasimham.org/ebooks/ebook34.htm

Prabhandha Saaram is the essence of the aruliccheyalhaL of  the twelve
AzhwArs and Thiruvarangatthu Amudanar , the author of Sri RaamAnuja
NooRRandhAthi. In thsi Tamil Prabhandham , Swamy Desikan establishes
the avathAram details, the AzhwAr Prabhandham details so that there will be
no mix ups in the future . Swamy Desikan prays for the anugrahams of
the individual AzhwArs and AchArya RaamAnuja to bless him with 
Jn~Anam about their aruLiccheyalhaL .  

Please enjoy them and send us your feedbacks.

  Dear Sri Srinivasan :

  In the listings of Seven , we explain the Prathi Vaadhi's Paksham
  one by one to seet the stage to dismiss them later as inaccurate.

  In this context , the 7th item should say : " The Lord without Piratti
  alone is ParadEvathai "  and in the next para demolish this view like
  all the other six . It is thus a set up .

  We will keep it this way in the PDF document .
  Thanks for asking for clarification .

    Dear Sriman Sadagopan Mama:

    Thanks for the wonderful explanation.  

    So that means item 7 is to be : The Lord with his Piratti alone is 
Paradevathai as you mentioned in the previous mail (and not  without as in the 
PDF version).  So here Paradevathai menas supreme. Am I correct? 

    In the word document the numbers 1to 7 are there for this Naamam but in the 
PDF version, the nunbers are not there.  I think Kala has to assign the numbers 
1 to 7 and high light number 7.

      Dear Sri Srinivasan :

      In response to your two points ,

      1)" The Lord without His Piratti alone is ParadEvathai " is the 7th 
Matham 
      and it has to be highlighted in PDF and number 7 has to be given to it .
      This is one of the group of 7 Mathams that will be proven unacceptable 
      in subsequent sections. I  am sorry to burden Kala with more work .

      2) You have a Very good Question about the 7th Vaadham( Paksham) .

      The 7th Paksham (Matham) is referring  to TennAchArya and 
      Madhva SampradhAyam , where they view MahA Lakshmi 
      as a simple Jeevan or VisEsha Jeevan .JUst hat ! TennAchArya sampradhAyam
      recognizes as you know Her PurushakArathvam only . They have 
      additional problems with accepting the need for performing SaraNAgathy
      to BhagavAn Himself or to the dhivya dampathis .They do not go beyond 
SamAsrayaNam
      as you know. Srimath Azhagiya Singar used to joke that some of them ( 
TennAchArya
      SampradhAyins) come to him for performing SaraNAgathy as insurance for 
Moksham . 

      As you know , Swamy Desika SampradhAyam believes in Her being both 
UpAyaam and
      UpEyam . It believes in Their Yeka Seshithvam . " SrimAnAna NaarAyaNanE
      Para Devathai " is the dictum for Vadakalai sampradhAyins . This goes 
from Swamy 
      AlavanthAr down to Swamy Desikan .   The answer to the 7th Vaadham is;
      "Sriman NaarAyaNan alone is the ParadEvathi and not the Lord without Her" 
.
      Some do not visit GuruvAyIr because , the Lord there is young KrishNa 
      without MahA Lakshmi . He is however never without Her . Even In 
VaamanAvathAram , 
      our Lord( BrahmachAri)  hid Her under the deer skin attached to His 
Yaj~nOpaveetham .
      At GuruvAyUr , He is hailed by the BhakthAs as Sriman NaarAyaNan and He
      has all the LakshaNams of Sriman NaarAyaNan including a Lotus and Mace 
along 
      with Chakram and Sankhu . Srimath Azhagiya Singar has visited GuruvAyUr
      for this reason twice because the Lord standing  by the side of NaarAyaNa 
      PushkaraNi and being the Moortham of Sriman NaarAyaNan .
      V.S  

      Page 36: List of 7 mathams (for NaamA 829):  I checked the word document. 
After the sixth item, "Ithara Para dEvathais",  the seventh one "The Lord 
with.... ParadEvathai" is  numbered by me as item 7.  Highlighting in the PDF 
version is missing.  This is to be highlighted. 

      Dear V.S. Mama:  I have a question.  I am not able to understand this 
vaadham - the 7th one "The Lord with ( without)  His PirAtti alone is Para 
Devathai. I would be much grateful for the explanation.
