Shri: Adieyn considers myself as one of the most benefitted one of being member of these satsangams. Adieyn would like to thank Shri.Soundarajan Desikan Swamin to be as the spark for his intiative. I was doing only my trikaala sandhyavandanam and nothing much is known to me to qualify myself as a srivaishnava except my Acharyan dhaniyan, Ashtaksharam, Dwayam, Chrama slokam and Thiruppaavai. In fact I am eager to learn and recite various sloka, suktam and prabandam - but due to loukeeka constraints I am also forced to learn and spend most of my time towards my career enrichment. Just due to this reason, I could not spend much time in learning these sacred texts (of course finally it boils down to me, the one who should find time by prioritising my needs!). With a vairagyam, I was determined for the past few years to not to miss sandhyavandanam. Right from those days, I am aware that I should perform 108 japa and not 28. but for the reason of the time (since adiyen is saama vedin and sishyal of HH Azhagiyasingar, I need to perform aachamanam twice and pranayamam thrice as per my aacharyan's thiruvullam which made my sandhyavandanam more lengthier) as sandhyavandanam for one period extended beyond twenty minutes, I decided to do only 28 japa count. Just after reading this thread, I decided myself to do 108 count on saayam sandhya and for all three times during weekends as i could spare more time. To my surprise I found performing 108 did not take much time at all as I had thought. Now, I am performing 3 sandyavandanams with 108 gayathri japa and 108 ashtakshara mantram japam. I would like to say a special thanks to shri.soundrajan swamin and shri.S. Vijayaraghavan of NY ("Vijayaraghavan Chakravarthy" <vijayaraghavan_s@...>) who seeded this thought in my mind. Now, adieyn is also preparing myself to learn pancha suktham and divya prabandam. But as you all know, this is a very steep learning curve and I would like to know the learning sequence starting from the most mandatory portions first and then progressing to the other at later stage. At this outset, adieyn requests all the knowledgeable persons of these sathsangams to guide me which part of these (pancha suktham, divya prabandam and Vishnu sahasranamam) are to be learnt first. Adiyen also expects more guidance in divya prabandam area as it is the most voluminous of all?
