Dear AchArya RaamAnuja BHakthAs:
 
I am enclosing an appeal from SrIman Vijayan
regarding a request from SrI Mudali ANDAn ThirumAligai
from SingaperumAL KOil .
 
The Moola Purushar of this AchArya Vamsam is
Swamy  Dasarathy , who came to be known later
as Swamy Mudali ANDAn.
 
Swamy Mudali ANDAn's Kaimakryam as the BaaginEyar
(with dEha sambhandham of AchArya RaamAnujA) and
direct disciple of AchArya RaamAnujA is well recorded in
Guru Paramparai recordings.
 
Swamy Mudalai Andan was recognized by AchArya
RaamAnujA as as His ThridhaNdam and PaadhukA
for his Kaimkaryams to his AchAryan and SrI VaishNavam.
 
From being the Foremost ( ANDAn ) among Mudalis ( Temple
Functionaries) at SrIrangam Temple at the request of his AchAryan
to being "SthrI Dhana VeLLAtti for Athtuzhai( the daughter of
Periya Nampi , one of the 5 AchAryAs of Bhagavath RaamAnujA) ,
Swamy Mudali ANDAn has performed capably at whatever task
His AchAryan Commanded him to do .One such kaimkaryam at
the niyamanam of AchArya RaamAnujA was the Pancha NaarAyaNa
Prathishtai at KarnAtaka during his AchAryan's exile in Melkote .
At the karnataka village of SaaLagrAmam , the power of the SrI Padha
Theertham of Swamy Mudali ANDAn was demonstrated for
the people of the above grAmam by AchArya RaamAnuja .
 
Swamy Mudali ANDAn's son was KanthADai ANDAn , Lord
RanganAthA's gift to His chief of administration , Swamy Mudali
ANDAn . His son was KanthAdai ThOzhappar , whom Lord
VaradarAjan considered as His Thozhan ( dear Friend ) and
presented Thozhappar with one of the six Sannidhi bhErams
of Himself ( Azhaitthu VaazhvitthAr Moortham ) , which stays
until today as the AarAdhana Moorthy at Sri Mudali Andan
ThirumALikai at Singa PerumAL koil .Here , the Swamy
Mudali ANDAn serves PrahlAdhAdhri ( PaatalAdhri)
Narasimhan and blesses his sishya paramparai .
 
Please refer to the special web pages for more details on
the Vaibhavam  of Swamy Mudali ANDAn and His illustrious
Vamsam at:
 
http://www.srivaishnava.org/sva/muali.htm
 
Please contact SrimAns Vijayan , V.K. Elayavalli or
Dr. Sashikal Iyengar for additional details on this
Kaimkaryam of particular interest to Prakrutham Swamy
Mudali ANDAn . Their telephone numbers and e-mail
addresses  are given below.

Dear Ms.Sashikala Iyengar
 Because of the relation of Swami MudaliAndan to Swami Emberumanar and His Kainkaryams to Sri Ramanuja, it is imperative that all Srivaishnavas help in restoring the Avatara Stala of Swami MudaliAndan back to the Thirumaligai. Any help from anyone will be more than welcome. Thank you for your help.

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha,
 
Please accept my humble namaskarams. My name is Vijayan Ramasamy, currently based out of USA and I belong to the Thirumaligai of Swami MudaliAndan. I am told that you also belong to the same Thirumaligai. You may be aware that our Vartamana Swami is actively involved in many Thirumaligai Kainkaryams and is instrumental for making many changes and is shaping more changes. One of the problems we are facing is that all Shishyas are not able to join hands in support of our Thirumaligai and also participate in many activities. I have had the "bhagyam" of talking to Swami a few times. There are two reasons for my sending this email to you:
1. In the past we have been trying to collect the details of Shishyas who may be dispersed across the world. I am told that you may have family members spread across many countries. If you do not mind and if you think your family members will not mind, I will greatly appreciate if you will kindly send me the contact info to them (including email addresses) and a small introduction to them;
2. An urgent need of the Thirumaligai is that our Swami is actively trying to re-acquire the Avatara Stalam of our first MudaliAndan in Pettai, near the outskirts of Chennai. It is imperative that we do not let this opportunity slip away and it is also a great opportunity for all of us to participate in this kainkaryam. It is unfortunate that our own Swami has to openly ask our help in this regard. Any help that you can provide directly or in the form of directing me to  others from whom I can seek help will be greatly appreciated and I am sure Swami's blessings will help us and guide us in this act.
 
It will be of great help and I beg you to please respond at your earliest convenience. Thank you very much. I remain,
Sincerely,
Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan
Vijayan Ramasamy
