SrI:
Dear Devotees:
It is my pleasure to recommend the content rich
book that is being
printed now at Bangalore under the sponsorship of
Thiruvengatam
Group . I am referring to the outstanding book by
SrI Anbil Ramaswamy ,
who is untiringly devoting his time to serving the
overseas SrI VaishNava
Community thru his leadership as the Editor of
SrI Ranga Sri now and other
lists before .
He is a devout sishyar of HH PoundarIkapuram
Andavan and is close to
many AchArya PurushAs in India .He is known to many
of us as an indefatigable
champion of SrI VisishtAdhavithic tatthvAs
.
Through pioneering research powered by his
limitless zeal and a spirit of
service to the public in general and
overseas Indians in particuar , Anbil Swamy
has assembled in this book a coherent history
of the Vedic religion under
8 headings (Chapters) that are united in
a seamless fashion .
The first chapter defines the scope of the book and
summarizes the cardinal
principles of Hinduism as a SanAthana
dharmam.
After that synopsis , in the second chapter , Anbil
Swamy moves on to the role of religion
in human life in terms of unique anushtAnams , SaadhanAs , Goals in life (
PurushArTams)
of our Parama Vaidhika matham .
Third chapter is a gem in that it deals with the
Tatthva Thrayam ( the three eternal realities):
ChEthanam , achEthanam and Iswaran . This is
an esential knowledge that every
VisihtAdhvathin has to absorb and relate to for
developing appreciation of the richness
of our darsanam.
The fourth chapter leads on to saadhana and
SaranAgathy as an unfailing route to
assure liberation from the shackles of the two
kinds of karmAs : Paapam and
PuNyam.
The fifth chapter dwells on the inadequacies of
MaayA Vaadhins as laid out by
our PoorvAchAryAs.
The Sixth chapter progresses to highlight the lives
and Vaibhavams of
our AzhwArs and the Guru Paramparai all the way to
presetn day
AchAryAs and their mahOpakAram to us.
The seventh chapter takes us on to Srishti ,
Sthithi and SamhAram
in modern day , scintific terms . The title of this
chapter is : Evolution
and Dissolution of Matter , Space and
Time.
The concluding Eighth chapter is a valuable
bibiliography and a Time index of
global events and a glossary of words used in the
book.
SrI Anbil Ramaswamy has done yeoman service in
distilling the essence of
what he has learnt from kaalakshEpams with many
erudite AchAryAs and
presenting to the aasthikAs a most welcome book on
" Hinduism Revisited".
Please contact SrI Anbil Swamy for acquiring
this valuable book for Your
family library . This book will be released
during the upcoming birthday of
SrIMad PoundarIkapuram Andavan at
Srirangam ( Panguni RohiNi ).
May Anbil Swamy's Kaimkarya Sri grow further and
furhter !
