Azhwar, Emberumanar, Swami Desikan ThiruvadikalE charanam Dear Bhagavathothamas Shri U.Ve. Sadagopachariar swami has succintly summarised the duty cast on each of the vaishnavite (more particularly, of Desika sampradaya) to ensure the conduct of nithyaradhana at Thoppul and TiruthanKa. We are fortunate and blessed immensely to be of this origin. As most of us are aware, in many Divya Desams, specially in Chola Mandala Thirupathigal and Pandi Nattu Thirupathigal, Niothyaradhanam itself is becoming Brahmothsavam, as there are not enough funds with them. Temple lands are under illegal occupation, rentals are rarely reaching the treasury, etc.Adiyen makes it a point to offer oil, other dhravyams like theertha parimalam, camphor, snana powder,etc. to the Divya Desams/other temples which are in need of it. To begin with, each of us living in Tamil Nadu, wherever they come across such temples, should contribute their mite to light the Garbhagram and offer the basic essentials. Many Acharyan sannidhis are under lock and key, it is regrettable to point out. If we are to take up the project of the kind mentioned by CLN, we have to start with the project commended by Sadagopachariar swami and taking up the cause of conducting nithyaradhanam in nearby temples. This way, we can spread this culture gradually to other Divya Desams. U.Ve. Sadogopachariar swami has rightly put it that we must coordinate with the bhagavathas, like Mrs. YGP, U.Ve. Velukkudi swami and others and involve ourselves in such a noble and holy project. In my own humble way, I am submitting my offerings in cash and kind to the temples nearby and also which I have visited and found them to be cash-strapped. It is my appeal to fellow-vaishnavites to correct me, if I have stated anything otherwise. Shri U.Ve. Sadopachariar swami has been kind enough to bless me with his regular postings and I am indebted to the swami. Similar is the case with Shri C.G.Balaj swami and Shri CLN swami. I am grateful to them indeed. I request you to kindly correspond with me at raghav@xxxx in regular intervals. Seeking kshama Adiyen Srirangam Srinivasa Raghava dasan
