SrI:

Dear SrI Nrisimha BhakthAs :
 
The first vyAkhyAnam for Thiruvaimozhi
was by Thirukkuruhai PiLLAn PirAn(6ooo
Padi) following the kaNakku of Sri VishNu
PurAnam. This was followed by Nanjeeyar's
9,000 padi . PeriyavAcchAn PiLLai's 24,000
Padi folowed the number of slOkams 
of Srimad RaamAyaNam in size. 
 
Vadakku Thiruveethi PiLLai with great effort
composed Ieedu 36,000 Padi but incurred the 
displeasure of his AchAryan , NampiLLai in 
creating it from NampiLLai's KaalakshEpams
without his AchAryan's permisison . This Ieedu
grantam stayed out of circulation for many years
and finally was permitted to be released thru
NaayinAcchAr PiLLai , the son of Periya VaacchAn
PiLlai .
 
VaadhikEsari Azhagiya MaNavALa Jeeyar was
the sishyar of NaayinAcchAr PiLLai and he blessed 
us with two commentaries on ThiruvAimozhi:
(1) 12,000 padi (2) DramidOpanishad Sangathi 
in Sanskrit , which provided the meaning of 
each dasakam .
 
Swamy Desikan was a contemproary of 
NayinArAcchAn PiLLai , PiLLai LOkaacchAr
( son of Vadakku Thiruveethi PiLLai) , Vaadhi
Kesari Azhagiya MaNavALa PerumAl were 
contemporaries . 
 
Swamy Desikan blessed us with two SrI
Sookthis : (1) DramidOpanishad Taatparya 
RatnAvaLi incorporating the meaning of 
the paasurams of each dasakam and 
(2) DramidOpanishad Saaram , which 
summarized the meanings of each 
Satakam ( Patthu).  Few decades later ,
Sri Saila SrinivAsa Desika Swamy contributed 
two granthams in MaNipravALam as
commentary to the two SrI Kosams of
Swamy Desikan . 
 
MaNavALa MaamunikaL presented for
a whole year the Ieedu 36,000 at 
Srirangam Temple and was honored by 
Lord RanganAtha Himself . He became 
known as 36,000 Perukkar . MaamunikaL
also blessed us with ThiruvAimozhi
NooRRandhAthi  in VeNNpaa meter.
This Sri Sookti summarized the meanings 
of each dasakam .  
 
We will focus on DramidOpanishad
Taatparya RatnAvaLi .
 
There is a Temple for Thirukkuruhai PirAn
PiLLAn at Kaanchi Sannidhi Street , which is
not protected well from the elements .
 
Perhaps some one of you would like to 
come forward to provide repairs to 
permit nityArAdhanam to continue here .
 
Please let me know of your potential
interests .
 
NamO Sri RaamAnujAya ,
V.Sadagopan
