SrI: Dear Srimathy SaranAthan : The signature of AchArya RaamAnujA is at Melkote ArchakA's house in the Koil AzhwAr . Melkote Vaasis ( Sriman M.A.Alwar ) will direct you to that house , which has the bhAgyam of the authentic signature in Poojaa Graham all these years . adiyEn had the bhAgyam of seeing this Kai Oppam few years back , when adiyEn had the SamarpaNam of Silver AarAdhana Paathram for ThirunArAyaNan and a SaThAri for Udayavar . That SaThAri was like the ones used in ChOLa Desam . It was bigger than the usual Kai SaThAri . Hence after Prathishtai , the SaThAri was kept in Udayavar Sannidhi ( I am told) and the samller sized SaThAri . Any one visiting Melkote are welcome to see AchArya RaamAnujA's HasthAksharam and also let adiyEn know , whether the bigger sized SaThAri with Navarathnams in the Kumizhi is still kept at Udayavar Sannidhi .There was some debate about moving it to Moolavar Sannidhi . I have lost track of these developments at Melkote . adiyEn's duty was to complete the SamarpaNam and leave the rest to the ArchakAs . V.Sadagopan P.S: The picture is added for decoration . It is of Selva PiLLai and hence it brings one back to Melkote . No connection between the picture and the signature . The signature at Melkote is at the end of a palm leaf manuscript . The best person to comment on this is Dr.M.A.Alwar of Melkote . ----- Original Message ----- From: "jayasartn" <jayasree.saranathan@xxxxxxxxx> To: <Oppiliappan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 3:04 AM Subject: [Oppiliappan] Re: Actual Signature of Swami Ramanuja > SRIMATHE RAMANUJAYA NAMAHA. > > I am curious to know in which language Bhagavad Ramanuja used to > write often.
