Subject: A Rare photo of a Painting: Nadadur Ammal's blessings to Swami Desikan

Posting on behalf of Sri Nadadur Madhavan, Virginia:

Attached is a rare photo of a mural picture depicting Sri Nadadur Ammal
(Vstsya Varada Guru) blessing 5-year old Venkatanathan (Swami Sri
Desikan) seen on the ceilings of Kachchi-vaithAn Mantapam of Sri
Varadraja Swamy Temple in Kanchipuram.

At the age of five, Swami received blessings from Sri Nadadur Ammal "
 
I went into Oppiliappan Group web-site to access the image since it was not in the message recd by me. The picture contains a message in Tamil script; some letters (particularly in lines 5-8) are not easily understood. Members who know may kindly transliterate it for the benefit of others.I am reproducing the original text below:
