New Jersey Institute of Technology.
He is the Grandson of mahavidwan sri Ue.Ve.Parthasaraty iyengar 
of Triplicane (Popularly known as "Paccadi Parthasarathy Iyengar" 
in Triplicane circle) 
He had his formal learning of Divyaprabandam in the santhai 
mode right underneath the footsteps of his Grandfather himself.

A brief note on Sri.Ue.Ve. Rangarajan swamy =================================

We have with us Sri U.Ve.Rangarajan swamy from the heartland of our 
Vaishnavisam, i.e Bhoologa vaikundam, Srirangam.
He is a sishya of Mahavidwan Sri Ue.Ve.Narasimhachariar swamy of 
Srirangam. He has been in the footsteps of Narasimhachariar swamy for the past 
10 years, learning the rahasyams and vyakyanams of our Alwars and Aacharyas.


So, we are all going to be really blessed to hear his outpourings on 
the topic "Charmaslokam". This is going to be a 40 minute Upanyasam,
followed by a question answer session of 10 to 15 minutes. 
This Upanyasam is going to go about for a period 
of 8 to 10 weeks following our regular Santhai.

=============================================================
To summarize,

Sirya thirumadal santhai will be for 30 to 35 minutes. 
Sri Narasimhan swamy's talk will be for 15 minutes
Sri Ue.Ve. Rangarajan's swamy's upayasam + Q/A session for 1 hour

This is going to be a routine, for the coming 8 to 10 weeks.

A brief note on "Charmaslokam"
======================

We all know that our Emperumaanar's darsanam (Emperumaanar's vision), 
Vishitadvaitam has been epicentered around the three pillars of 
"Thirumandram", "Dhwayam" and "Charmasolkam" as profounded by the 
Alwars and other poorvacharyas in their Divyaprabandams and srisukthis.

Emperumaan Kannan in his Bhagavat Gita first expounds on 
Karma yogam, Gnyana yogam, Bhathi yogam and finally on Saranagati as 
the ways of liberation for we jeevathmas, to ultimately attain his 
lotus feet. The paths of Karma, Gyana and Bhakthi yogam 
have almost been next to impossible for us to follow in today's 
materialistic world. 

So finally, the easier of the above four, which can be adopted even in 
todays turbulanstic situations i.e Saranagati has been expounded 
in the "charmaslokam" 

sarvadharmAn parityajya mAm Ekam saraNam vraja |
aham tvA sarvapApEbhyO mOksaiSyAmi mA suca: || (BG 18:66)

So adiyen invites you all to come and hear, what this great scholar has 
in store, on Saranagati as explained in Charmaslokam.

Azhwar Emperumaanar Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Saranam,
Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan,
Varadarajan
